The normal range for myself and my single friends is about once every 2 - 3 months. I am a single, whit, adult male.
I am wondering if this is a normal amount. I am talking about the type of thing where you meet a person in a bar and have the one night stand, or you meet the friend of a friend and after while you end up have sex once. Things like that.
If you have a regular booty call, then your out of the survey. I am asking about people who don’t have sex on call.
Let’s see. 1978, then 1981, then 1997, then I got married and was removed from the pool of single people. So not very often.
Let me see. My marriage ended in March 2003. I didn’t have sex with someone else again untill December 2004 and I haven’t had sex since. So, in answer to your question, not often enough.
1-2 times per month if you exclude regular hook-ups, booty calls and psuedo-girlfriends.
I should probably do better but half the time I just don’t like people, even ones with breasts.
Twice a month tops, before I was drawn into the dark seedy underworld of friends with benefits. One guy I know was averaging a lay every two nights before the exams came along.
My sex life is measured in geological time.
I had a lot of sex when I was out and about as a single gal. At least once a week, if not more. I had a few casual hookups that I’d run into while out, and then sometimes it would be a one nighter or something.
The longest I have ever gone without is two months and I don’t really remember why. I think I was working a lot or something.
Why would you exclude those?
As for me, I’ll just say not often.
Way back when I was single 5 or so years ago… I would say I averaged once every 2 weeks or so. Sometimes I would meet a woman and we would get to gether several times over a period of a few weeks sometimes nothing for 3-4 weeks. Longest dry spell was actually 7 months out of a 5 year period that I was not really in any kind of formal bf/gf relationship.
What is this “sex” thing of which you speak?
Slortar and Hypno-Toad describe my experience while i was single.
but I’ve been married for 12 years now.
Because I asked that those sort of things be excluded in the OP. I am interested in the amount of spontanious sex a single person has. We all have people that we can call in a clinch when we just need to get laid. I was wondering about meeting women in bars or by other means, not regular “on demand” sex.
I don’t enjoy bars and I live in a very quiet rural area. In my experience, casual sex is something that happens to other people.
Well, maybe not all of us…
What? I have never head of this.
Oh please, every time I call you say you have to wash your hair. It’s your own fault. 
No spontaneous sex here. Personally, the idea of getting intimate with someone I don’t know and/or don’t respect has any appeal. Just the way my brain works.
I must just be an animal. I am ruled by the id.
Short answer: Never.
Long answer: Not once in the twenty-plus years I have been sexually aware (and single - my usual descriptor on that is “terminally” single). Like Finagle, I don’t like bars; although I’m not opposed to the idea of casual sex, I’m also really unlikely to be that intimate with someone I don’t know well enough to know if I can trust or not.
For me it’s feast or famine. But on average about once or twice every 3 months or so.
If I were willing to sleep with people’s wives or girlfriends my average would go way, way up. I’m not a saint. I just don’t want to be a part of the potential complications.
Actually, I’m suprised and vaguely disappointed at the number of involved women who’ve basically offered to bed me. I’m decent looking, but not anywhere near the point you’d want to wreck your situation over me. And I know that at least a few of these women appeared to be very happily married. Meanwhile, the single ladies seem lately to scatter like mice when I appear. :dubious:
