Zoe Strimpel, Myriam François and Louise Perry discuss why people are having less sex.

Is our culture too sex-saturated?

We are more open about sex than ever before. No topic too outrageous to discuss. No concern too personal to share. But are we making a mistake? Surveys show across all adults a marked decrease in the frequency we have sex with a partner, and a 40% decrease in having regular sex amongst young people. Is our very openness about sex making it less exciting, less transgressive, and less desirable?
