While 10% of those polled (82% male vs. 18% female) said they like to have sex on the first date, 39% (56% female vs. 44% male) prefer to wait more than a month.
Thirty-four percent of the respondents (55% male vs. 45% female) said they wait less than one month, and 17% (52% female vs. 48% male) said they have sex at the one-month mark.

“It’s encouraging to see that so many people are choosing to wait to have sex,” says adamandeve.com resident sexpert Dr. Kat Van Kirk.
“There are so many variables involved in sex and dating that vary from person to person that I believe having set ‘rules’ for when to have sex doesn’t really serve us. I’d rather people focus on what feels comfortable for them as individuals and communicate from there.”
