BUSINESS WIRE — Mar 30 — How long can you go without sex? For members of AdultFriendFinder.com, the world's largest adult online dating site, the answer is: not long. 45% of the 11,000 respondants said they can't go more than a week without showing signs of deprivation. 14% say they are "masters of their own domain" and can go sexless indefinitely. The survey shows men need (or at least want) sex more: 44% say they can't go more than a week, compared to 34% of women. Only 12% of gay men (survey of 1000 on outpersonals) said they can go without for 1 to 2 months.
Mark Brooks: The dating sites that seem to be doing really well right now are either focused on serious relationships and personality based matching or, at the other end of the spectrum, casual/sex focused. AdultFriendFinder (aka Passion.com) attends to the masses who are looking to lead with their sexual preferences. The site is huge, was started in 1996 by Dr Conru and flys under the wire because of it's sexual content which eliminates it from the online personals rankings on Hitwise, Comscore and Nielsen…who avoid the segment like the plague. I've (boldly) added a ranking for the adult sites to OPW so you can be a little better informed.
