  1. Interesting data! How do the frequencies compare across different age groups?

  2. Source (with more data): [https://worldsexmap.com/](https://worldsexmap.com/)

    It’s an anonymous online survey, so while informative, it doesn’t fully reflect reality. More responses are needed to make the data more representative

  3. Wow, I would have suspected more than 1% of men and 4% of women to be liars

  4. Never is plausible, like religious guilt or whatever, but who the hell is masturbating once per year? Birthday treat? Christmas present? 

  5. Is “Did not masturbate” supposed to be “Do not masturbate?” ‘Cause I think we could all legitimately claim we “did not” masturbate if given the right qualification (e.g., “I did not masturbate in the last hour,” or “I did not masturbate in the clock tower”).

  6. Color me skeptical, but these “studies” are very likely to be utter bullshit.
    But they are fucking clickbait jackpots.
    Take them seriously at your own risk.

  7. I thought women have a sex drive as high as men if not higher?

    I’m also interested in how “more than once a day” would look on the graph.

  8. I feel like these are rookie numbers; where is the stat for >1/day? Asking for a friend…

  9. I would love to see broken down between single and “in a relationship”

  10. That 1% probably hesitated to answer. There’s no options to not answer the question?

  11. Elderly people don’t use Reddit to defend their answers here.

  12. I’m actually surprised only 30% admit to going daily. Not to self report, but I really thought it was the most common amongst single people.

  13. The blur on this image before I clicked made me think I was going blind.

  14. Every morning unless wifey wants to put out too. Good luck young lads

  15. 90% of men: once weekly or more

    69% of women: once weekly or more

    Edit to conclude: Americans sure like to cum.

  16. Honestly, I would like to meet the people who are above 30 and have never masturbated. What is their life like that that impulse has never been scratched.

  17. If you’re not in a constant state of post-nut clarity, it means you’re constantly in a state of pre-nut delusion.

  18. Once a year? How does that work? Looks at calendar. “Oh shit, I nearly forgot tomorrow is MASTURBATION DAY!”

  19. 30% of the time, I masturbate everyday. The other 70% more.

  20. The “once a year” people is what I’m having the hardest time with.

    Like… is it a special occasion when it happens? Do they make plans?

    Or is it like an old song you used to like and the idea to listen to it pops into you head randomly?

  21. I feel like the women’s numbers are inflated and the women’s number’s deflated

  22. 31% of women only masturbate every few weeks or less?

    That’s pretty shocking to me. 

    I regularly see comments on Reddit about how women have higher sex drives than men. 

  23. I would love to know about the lives of the men in the first group. The jerk offs who jerk off every day. I’m in that group but my life is miserable. Are we all miserable?

  24. who tf masturbates once a year? do they say like yess the day has come or sth?

  25. Once a year is an insane answer, I understand never doing it but once a year is crazy

  26. LOL. Too many of you are considering “not masturbating” the same as “not orgasming”… you guys realize there’s other ways to get off that don’t require you to do it yourself right?

  27. Honestly I think the “Once a Year” crowd is the weirdest. What’s the deal, a birthday present? Only at Christmas? St. Patrick’s day special? Freedom Fap in the 4th of July?

  28. I need this broken down by age, because every day is a lot

  29. Hi! As someone who masturbates very infrequently (1-2x a year) it’s because i’m on life saving medication that makes me have 0 libido and also anorgasmia. I don’t really have any reason to masturbate, and the times I do it’s the very very rare occasion I have a tiny bit of libido, or i’m trying to fall asleep and think “eh, I’ll try again and maybe it will help”. The sessions normally only last about 4-5 minutes before I get bored or tired. I don’t really mind it though. I have sex with my partner and it really makes me happy to see them enjoying themselves! The fact that I can give them lots of pleasure gives me lots of satisfaction and I do enjoy it in that way. I don’t mind it though. I’ve been on them since 13 so can’t say I’ve ever felt something “missing” from my life in that regard. I just live my life like normal and enjoy hanging with my partner and cat.

  30. why no multiple times a day, don’t wanna be lumped in with the casuals

  31. Where the one for every few hours? Feeling kinda left out here

  32. Who masturbatss once a year? I understant never doing it or doing once a month but just one in a year?

  33. Who the fuck masturbates once a year like bro its october 16th its time to wank I guess

  34. Average. My entire life wasted being average, can’t even fap at a high level.

  35. I normally hate 3D graphs but I feel this needs a Z-axis for Years of Age. Libido varies and definitely changes over a lifetime. Either that, or state the age range of poll responders.
