“Sex appears to be available more easily than ever before, with numerous dating apps cropping up every day and allowing people to schedule their next hook-ups with just a swipe on their phones. Then there are the committed couples who are assured of a "sure thing" every night, which is also known as "the marriage advantage."

The paper showed an overall drop in sexual activity across race, gender, region, work status and education level.”
