In one study, people of either sex with below-average attractiveness had a 1.5-3x higher chance of remaining virgin during early adulthood compared to people of above-average attractiveness, however all 26 very unattractive guys in the study did have sex by the time they were around 28 years old,<ref name="haydon2013"></ref> and unattractive men do not more likely see prostitutes. However, it is unknown whether half of the adult virgins in this study having reported to have no interest in sex, and it is unknown whether the sexless attractive individuals were more likely volcels. | ** Being physically unattractive.
