Adamandeve.com Asks: How Old Were You When You First Had Sex?

Adamandeve.com, America’s most trusted source for adult products, is back this month with new results from its annual sex survey. This time, the company asked over 1,000 adults how old they were when they first had sexual intercourse, and the results may surprise you. Only 2% of the females and 5% of the males polled said they lost their virginity before age 13. Most of the respondents, 52% of the females and 49% of the males, admitted they first had sex between age 13 and 18. Thirty-eight percent of the females and 34% of the males said they first had intercourse between age 18 and 23, and 8% of the women and 12% of the men were over age 23. The web-based survey, conducted by an independent third party survey company, of over 1,000 American adults age 18 and up, was sponsored by Adam & Eve to study sexual preferences and practices. 

“As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I find these numbers encouraging,” says Dr. Kat Van Kirk, resident sexologist for Adam & Eve. “Sex is an amazing, powerful gift, but one that teenagers – especially young teenagers – are often ill-equipped to handle.”

“Engaging in sexual activity before you are ready physically and emotionally can lead to a number of long term issues,” continues Dr. Kat. “I’m pleased to see that more young people are choosing to wait to have sex than in years past.”

Adam & Eve stores provide a safe, friendly environment for women, men and couples to explore romance and erotica. With everything from lingerie to bachelor and bachelorette gifts to instructional manuals and toys & games designed specifically to re-ignite the spark, Adam & Eve stores has something for the sensualists in everyone. Adam & Eve maintains the integrity that its customers have come to expect over the years.

Because self love encompasses much more than sex and sexuality, adamandeve.com delved deeper into the psychology behind the romantic choices we make with its Self Love Hub.  “Self love should be our first love… our best love. It’s the foundation of true happiness and any successful relationships, ” says Dr. Kat Van Kirk, resident sexologist at adamandeve.com and licensed therapist. “It’s a shame so many people focus on their perceived flaws instead of celebrating them as traits that make them unique.”

Adam & Eve’s Self Love Hub goes far beyond the definition of self love, or the appreciation of the personal growth you achieve from taking care of your needs – psychologically, physically, and spiritually – and gives individuals actionable steps to achieve a higher degree of self love. When these steps are thoughtfully completed, there is a higher probability this will translate into more successful relationships with others and a higher level of overall self care.
