Contrary to the general impression within the [[manosphere]], there is not much evidence of female promiscuity having sharply increased in recent decades, with female promiscuity seeming to have stabilized in the 1980s in most Western countries. In [[demographics#Germany|Germany]], [[demographics#France|France]], and the [[demographics|In the U.S.]], sexlessness has increased for women in the recent decades, likely due to weaker monogamy norms, later marriage, feminism shifting women's focus from reproduction to work, increasing social atomization, low birth rates and the resulting 'helicopter' parenting. | Contrary to the general impression within the [[manosphere]], there is not much evidence of female promiscuity having sharply increased in recent decades, with female [[promiscuity]] seeming to have stabilized in the 1980s in most Western countries.

For the U.S., studies are indicating a shift from an average of 2 lifetime sexual partners for women and 6 for men in 1970 to about 4 partners for women and 6 for men in 2006,<ref>http://www.claremontmckenna.edu/pages/faculty/welliott/Sexrevns.htm</ref><ref>http://www.iub.edu/~kinsey/resources/FAQ.html#number</ref> however, the first study reports medians and the second means, and this change can also be possibly explained by women having become more honest about their sexual lives. | For the U.S., studies are indicating a shift from an average of 2 lifetime sexual partners for women and 6 for men in 1970 to about 4 partners for women and 6 for men in 2006,<ref>http://www.claremontmckenna.edu/pages/faculty/welliott/Sexrevns.htm</ref><ref>http://www.iub.edu/~kinsey/resources/FAQ.html#number</ref> however, the first study reports medians and the second means, and this change can also be possibly explained by women having become more honest about their sexual lives. | ||
