CDC Survey/Anal sex

The CDC has the NSFG (National Survey of Family Growth) which collects information on sexual practices. In the report I was shocked to see that 36% of women and 42% of men had tried anal sex. Both statistics are up since ten years ago. These totals are for male/female partners and I thought for sure the women would be higher on the percentages. It appears to be very popular with the younger generation, most likely that they don't have to worry about getting pregnant or having to deal with ejaculation.

It's a short read. I found it very informative.

On a side note, I have had discussions with several younger women and all of them had tried anal sex and only a few liked it. When I asked them who their sexual partner was they said it was their boyfriend, but all of them said they jammed their cocks in to their anus with no lube. no relaxation period, treating it like a vagina. They were all between the ages of 21 and 28. It seems some guys don't get it. Maybe sex education classes need a training manual provided for the young and ignorant.
