Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

That sounds about right, although unless the survey respondents were all at death's door the number will go up for some of them.
And don't forget that a lot of communities around the world have a strong culture of monogomy and marrying young, bringing down the average.
At the risk of sounding old and lame, in my experience the ideal of having lots of sexual partners is a bit of a mirage in our culture. Nobody gets satisfied by a number and the best sex seems to happen in long-term relationships.
Think about the total number of times you had good sex, rather than the number of different people it was with.
Oh I don't advocate that having sex with more people is inherently good. I like having new partners, discovering new people, but that's me. Others like other stuff.
I am surprised at the number, but I guess not on a global scale. I think I exist in large part in a bit of a bubble when it comes to sex I guess.
