Some say general rates of celibacy should not be used as rates for inceldom among people. While this may be true for women, for men celibacy rates and inceldom rates should be very similar. The assumption that nearly all men would rather have sex than not, in any given day, is heavily supported by science. The most notable study is the academic Hatfield and Clark study of college students. Certain students were asked to randomly approach members of the opposite gender if they wanted to have sex right now. Women accepted the casual sex offers 0% percent of the time in that study. while men accepted the casual sex offers 75% of the time while the rest of the men apologized or gave valid excuses. This is just when men were asked at random by a random women too. The number would be even higher for both circumstances in less casual circumstances most likely. | |||
