A recent conversation with a friend about her sexual experiences while trying to conceive sparked a reflection on the state of sex discussions among people in their 30s. Once commonplace in early adulthood, these intimate dialogues have become less frequent, with a Bustle survey revealing that while 42% of women still discuss sex openly, 43% have stopped. Interestingly, 70% of those who’ve ceased such discussions express a desire to revive this connection, indicating that despite relational changes, there is still a yearning for deeper conversations about sexuality.
It was refreshing to talk about sex openly again; the sudden dive into the topic reminded me of our earlier days in our mid-20s before relationships took over.
Despite lacking discussion around sex, many in their 30s crave that connection; a survey showed that 70% long for the intimacy of open conversations.
Our chat stayed with me long after that night, highlighting how sex discussions have dwindled in our age group yet still hold potential for connection.
In our 30s, while sex has become less of a topic in friendships, the desire to rekindle these discussions and share experiences remains strong.
