For the past five years or so, we've been conducting annual research on the way you guys have sex.

Each year, we do this by sending a new Ultimate Sex Survey out into the world, the likes of which we use to get a clearer picture of what matters to target market readers ages 18-35 in the realm of sex and sexuality. We do this not only because it's pretty damn cool to get a sense of what our readers are interested in, but also because it helps us, and others, discern the larger trends in sexuality that dictate our everyday lifestyles, choices and beliefs. It's our hope that a greater understanding of these will be useful for both us and you when it comes being more informed, empathetic human beings, as well as in starting the much-needed conversations about sexuality our culture needs to have in order get to a place where we're comfortable with our most carnal desires, and those of others.

Our 2017 survey aims to be more revealing than ever. We'll probe questions of kink and fantasy, casual sex, sex in relationships, sex and politics, sex and technology and good practices in sex to figure out some of the broader patterns in how you all get down.

Let's do this.
