Study Finds More New Yorkers Abstaining from Sex

The City That Never Sleeps Around?

Nearly a third of all of the city’s adults said they had not had intercourse or oral sex in a year, according to the latest 2014 statistics.

That was the highest number since 2002, when the department first started keeping public records on the question.

The “Sexless & and City’’ number was even higher — 32.7 percent — among young adults ages 18 to 24, according to the department’s annual Community Health survey.

By comparison, in 2002, 18.4 percent of all city adults said they did not have sex with any partner the previous year. That included 20 percent of young adults ages 18 to 24.

"Experts" -- what would we do without them -- note there are a lot of impersonal ways to satisfy the sex impulse now, porn, sexting, etc.

Also: Squats.
