A 2016 survey of Japanese people aged 18 to 34 found that almost 70 percent of unmarried men and 60 percent of unmarried women are not in a relationship. | |||
Moreover, around 42 percent of the men and 44.2 percent of the women admitted they were virgins. | |||
There are now many more virgins than in 2010, when the last study was conducted and when only 36.2 percent of men and 38.7 percent of women said they had never had sex. | |||
