(Los Angeles, CA / October 07, 2024) – Popular pleasure-based sex-ed platform Beducated has just released its highly anticipated 2024 Summer Survey, drawing insights from over 2,291 respondents on their sexual practices, preferences, and experiences.
This year’s survey, the largest of its kind, offers fascinating data and sheds new light on emerging trends, particularly around sexual satisfaction, oral sex techniques, and arousal types. The full report can be accessed under beducated.com/sex-report.
- 1 in 3 respondents wished their last sexual experience lasted longer, with the desire becoming more likely the longer that person was in a relationship. This finding suggests that we need to slow down during sex – especially those in long-term relationships.
- Over 80% said penetration is part of their sexual routine, but 70% stated they don’t need penetration every time to feel satisfied, pointing to a rise in non-penetrative sex as a valued part of intimacy.
- T in 10 men revealed they enjoy anal stimulation during oral sex.
- Women over 40 were found to be the happiest with their sex lives, scoring the highest in sexual satisfaction compared to other age groups.
“The consistency in our results shows that many sexual behaviors and desires remain steady year after year, but what stood out this time were the small yet intriguing shifts in preferences,” said Beducated co-founder Mariah Freya. “We’ve seen evolving preferences that speak to deeper exploration and changing dynamics in intimacy.
“It’s fascinating to witness how people are embracing both traditional and modern aspects of sexual expression, and how these insights can further shape the conversation around healthy relationships and sexuality.”
On the other hand, the survey also highlighted how some attitudes toward sex have remained stubbornly outdated, especially when it comes to gender roles. Only a minority of men reported exploring their anal zone (31%) and prostate (30%) during partnered sex.
