The questionnaire for the study was filled out by 60 men and 22 women who identified as involuntarily celibate. Findings showed that involuntary celibates may come from broad sexual and personal backgrounds. Three categories were developed: virgins were those who had never had sex, singles had sex in the past but were unable to establish current sexual relationships, and partners were currently in sexless relationships (which included 28% of respondents). | The questionnaire for the study was filled out by 60 men and 22 women who identified as involuntarily celibate.

Of the virgin involuntary celibates, 76% were male, and 24% were female. Men in the study reported they felt trapped by being stuck in the role of the initiator of dates, while the women in the study reported that they felt like they should not initiate romantic or sexual encounters. | Of the virgin involuntary celibates, 76% were male, and 24% were female.
