According to the population surveys from last year - 61% of undergraduate male students and 56% of undergraduate female students had not had PIV sex in the last 12 months.

And 56% of male undergrads and 53% of female undergrads had not had oral sex in the last 12 months.

The majority of those are virgins and have never had sex.

Of students who had had sex in the last 12 months, 69% of male undergrads and 71% of female undergrads had only had 1 partner during that time frame. 20% of male undergrads and 19% of female undergrads had 2-3 partners, 5% of male students had 4-6 partners and 4% of female students had 4-6 partners, 4% of male students had 7 or more partners and 3% of female students had 7 or more partners.

Your kid tells you about their hookups?

Please. I hope no one is tracking where their kid sleeps.
My god.

Most colleges are 60:40 female:male so it's a tough "market" out there for women.

Do the hookups originate from parties? I feel like my kid can't figure out the scene. I don't think she's looking for hook-ups but she doesn't even talk to boys long enough (or ever) for anyone to proposition her. How does everyone actually meet to "hook-up?" Pls forgive these really strange questions. I would never breathe a word of this to my student. Just trying to understand the scene or how kids relate today. I did not live at school for most of college and it was a million years ago.

Eh, I’m not so sure.

I know tons of single young people who don’t seem to date.

Rare is the 'dating'. It is hook-up city.

DS doesn't share a lot, but recently admitted he had a casual girlfriend. He is in a fraternity, which probably helps.

My freshman recently came home for spring break. She told me she hasn’t dated anyone at all. No one has asked her out, no hookups, not even really guys chatting with her. As far as I know she also hasn’t asked any guys out herself. She feels kind of sad about all of it. Is it normal now for college students to basically live like they are in a convent? She studies a lot and spends most of her time with her female friends. They go out together to dinner, concerts, and games, and seem to have a nice time. But from what she says, her friends are having the same experience — not much or anything happening with guys. This feels very different from when I was in college. I’m curious what your freshman’s experience has been like.
