The survey anonymously polled over one thousands (1,000) users of the free online dating site FriendPad.com over a 2 month period. “This is a shocking discovery in today’s dating marketplace and specifically the insight into the interests in the folks coming to FriendPad.com today.” said Drew the site’s sole operator. Sex has become a staple of the dating world and more and more people are jumping on the band wagon as the media continues on its path to make sex the cool thing to do whether you are in a relationship or not. 

These results are in sharp contrast to other studies that have been conducted in the past. For example, a study conducted by YouGov on behalf of Craigslist about UK singles stated that “If I like someone on a first date, I would rather end the date with a nice cup of tea, coffee or other warm drink than by spending the night with them.” However, on the other hand studies have shown that women in particular are letting down their guard more than they would have just a few years ago. For example, a study done by The University of Texas School of Public Health showed that out of 740 women who were polled, 30% admitted to having sex on a first date.

Despite our alarming research, I think it’s safe to say that Sex is in and its here to stay and from the looks at it the folks at FriendPad.com are quite the promiscuous bunch of people.  From shear numbers, you have a greater chance this year of having sex on your first date than you did last year. It’s a growing trend that will most likely continue to grow as the media continues to break down the guilt that previous generations have built up.

FriendPad.com is a 100% free online dating site and is based in Cleveland, Ohio United States.
