For years, people have swapped myths about which countries “have the most sex,” but now global surveys finally give us something concrete to look at. And no — this ranking isn’t about stereotypes, fantasies, or cultural clichés. It’s about self-reported frequency of sexual activity, measured across thousands of participants, shaped by lifestyle, work-life balance, intimacy norms, relationship stability, and how openly societies talk about sex.
What emerges is a fascinating, fiery, sometimes surprising snapshot of how people across the world prioritize pleasure, connection, and intimacy. Some nations rank high because of strong dating cultures, others because of better sexual health education, others because of more relaxed attitudes towards relationships, and some simply because of younger population demographics.
