Contrary to widespread impression, women do not appear to have become sluttier in terms of number of sex partners.
There was a sharp rise in the number of sex partners between the 1920 and 1950-born cohorts, but then it remained stable.
More recently, there is rather a trend toward more sexlessness in [[#Other_countries|many developed countries]].
 
Nonetheless, 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.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Women_get_2-3_times_as_many_casual_sexual_relationships_from_Tinder_than_men</ref>
A minority of men also has plenty 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>
So, even though people have overall less sex, a minority may have more.


Contrary to people's impression, women do not appear to have more sex. In [[#Germany|Germany]], [[#France|France]], the U.S., sexlessness has increased 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.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Women_get_2-3_times_as_many_casual_sexual_relationships_from_Tinder_than_men</ref>
Additionally, there seems to be a minority 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>
So, even though people have on average less sex, a sex "elite" has more.
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. ''Income inequality not gender inequality positively covaries with female sexualization on social media.'' [[http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2018/08/20/1717959115 Abstract]]</ref>

Girls also seem to be less well behaved,<ref>Dytham S. 2018. ''The role of popular girls in bullying and intimidating boys and other popular girls in secondary school.'' [[https://doi.org/10.1002/berj.3324 Abstract]]</ref> and more often tattooed<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-tattoos-women/tattooed-women-outnumber-men-in-a-new-poll-idUSTRE8241SF20120305</ref> possibly as a consequence of feminism, which may also drive the impressions of intensified sluttiness, even though sexlessness is on the rise.
