Despite the apparent ease of securing sex in the age of dating apps and hookup culture, young Americans seem to be having less of it than ever before.

According to The Washington Post, the number of adults in the United States who reported having no sex in the last year has reached an all-time high of 23 percent.

Citing the latest data from the General Social Survey, the Post reported a much larger than expected number of twenty-something men among the nations sexually inactive adults.

According to the survey, the portion of Americans between 18 and 29 reporting no sex in the last year has more than doubled in the last decade, leaping from 8 percent in 2008 up to 23 percent in 2018. Broken down by gender, the data also showed a significant and unprecedented divide between male and female respondents. While the number of women in that age group reporting no sex saw an 8 percent increase in the last 10 years, the number of men reporting the same has nearly tripled to a staggering 28 percent.

While the data suggested young Americans are responsible for the sharpest rise of sexlessness, it also revealed a nationwide dry spell. According to the Post, the number of adults who reported having sex at least once a week now sits at 39 percent, down from 51 percent in 1996.

Are people still gonna deny that there's a modern social problem that's ruining mating prospects for a sizable portion of people?

It's highly doubtful that 28% of young men just don't want to get laid.
