Contrary to people's impression, women do not appear to have more sex. In [[#Germany|Germany]], [[#France|France]], the U.S., sexlessness has decreased for women as well, likely due to weaker monogamy norms, later marriage, feminism shifting women's focus from reproduction to work.

For the U.S., there are studies indicating a shift from an average of 2 lifetime sexual partners for women and 6 for men in 1970<ref>http://www.claremontmckenna.edu/pages/faculty/welliott/Sexrevns.htm</ref> to about 4 partners for women and 6 for men in 2006,<ref>http://www.iub.edu/~kinsey/resources/FAQ.html#number</ref> but one study reports medians and the other means, and this change can potentially explained by women lying less about their number of partners.

But a minority of women (e.g. around 21.9% of female Tinder users) does seem to have ''lots of sex'' and can get it substantially more easily than men. Additionally, there seems to be a small sex elite of men who have also a substantial amount of sex, perhaps more than ever before.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#The_top_5-20.25_of_men_.28ie._.22Chads.22.29_are_now_having_more_sex_than_ever_before</ref>

The impression of increased sluttiness may also come from the rise of self-sexualization (e.g. in online media, but also in the public) which appears to be driven by female intra-sexual competition in [[hypergamy]] and economic uncertainty/inequality, i.e. women self-sexualizing themselves to get attention from the more and more rare economically advantaged men.<ref>Blake KR, Bastian B, Denson TF, Grosjean P and Brooks RC. 2018.
