On average, women reported having 10.8 one-nighters, compared to an average of 14.6 for men. So whom are people choosing to spend the night with?

Read More »We asked 990 people who had a one-night stand in the past year how often they had them, who they had them with, and what concerns they had about them. There’s something liberating about a fun night out turning into a fun night in. Whether it’s an instant connection at the bar or a swipe-right meetup, some flings only last from sundown to sunup. One-night stands are notoriously connected to drunken nights and walks of shame, but this stigma is slowly changing. As one-night stands become more about sexual expression and independence, talking about proper precautions becomes more and more important. To get a better look at one-night stands, we asked 990 people who had a one-night stand in the past year how often they had them, who they had them with, and what concerns they had about them. To find out more on how to take the risk out of risqué, keep reading. Partner for the Night In the past year, the men surveyed had an average of 3.5 one-night stands, and women had an average of 2.7. While men only had a slightly higher average in the past year, the difference between genders was greater when looking at the average number of lifetime one-night stands. On average, women reported having 10.8 one-nighters, compared to an average of 14.6 for men. So whom are people choosing to spend the night with? The majority took to the sheets with someone they met online or through a dating app. This makes sense considering online dating has become the standard, with most finding their spouses through technology. Despite Tinder being known as the “hookup” app, people are still meeting their sexual partners in the real world, even if it’s just for the night. Almost 53 percent of people had one-night stands with someone they just met in person, and 52 percent even hooked up with a friend. Casual Comfort For some, one-night stands are fun and lighthearted, but other people may not be as comfortable with them. Most respondents were at least slightly comfortable with one-night stands, with only 2.7 percent of women and 1.6 percent of men reporting they were not at all comfortable with the idea. The majority of respondents were moderately comfortable with one-night stands. The biggest difference between men and women was those rating their comfort level as “extremely comfortable.” Twenty-eight percent of men had no doubts about casual sex, but only 16.2 percent of women felt the same. With a long history of being shamed for sex, women began to mute their sexuality and fit the mold society saw fit. But as time progressed, women have begun to find their voice and express themselves through the #MeToo movement and the Women’s March, letting the world know there is nothing wrong with their sexuality or being a woman – and that the two are not mutually exclusive. As women continue to come together and reclaim their independence and agency, the gap between comfort felt by men and women regarding casual sex may begin to close. Hookup Hang-ups Stigmas aren’t only where discomfort about casual sex comes from. After all, sex with a stranger can be extremely awkward during the act or waking up the next morning. Almost 70 percent of both men and women said the risk of STDs or STIs was their biggest concern regarding casual sex. While this was the main concern for most men, women had far more varying concerns, including personal safety. In fact, women were more likely to worry about their personal safety than the risk of unintended pregnancy. Fifty-four percent of women feared their personal safety would be at risk due to casual sex, while that was only a concern for 34 percent of men. Women were also more likely to be concerned about body insecurities, fear of regret, and being labeled promiscuous. Casual sex brought up fear of being labeled promiscuous for just 11 percent of men, but this stigma was a fear for 27 percent of women. Coming Prepared

What steps are people taking to relieve the worries they have surrounding one-nighters? Both men and women practiced carrying extra condoms or contraceptives with them at 55.7 percent and 55.5 percent, respectively. The two genders were also just as likely to ask their casual partner about his or her STI status before getting it on. However, the genders differed greatly when it came to other precautions. Fifty-five percent of women said they told a friend where they would be, while only 23 percent of men did the same. Letting a friend know your whereabouts matches the sentiment of “text me when you get home,” and it goes much deeper than just personal safety. The fear women feel when alone in certain situations is shared among the gender, so leaning on girlfriends may be the best bet – especially since they can empathize with those worries. Women were also more than twice as likely to carry self-defense items with them. Thirty-two percent of women worried about personal safety enough to bring protection, while only 11 percent of men entered a one-night stand carrying self-defense protection. Stranger Danger Having a one-night stand doesn’t always mean going home with a stranger, so who are people most concerned about spending the night with? For men, 30 percent were wary of having a one-nighter with a co-worker, and 25 percent were most worried about sleeping with a friend. Only 12 percent of men thought going home with someone they just met in person was worrisome, while almost 24 percent of women felt the same. Women were also more concerned about having a one-night stand with someone they met online or through a dating app – nearly 24 percent of women were leery of those situations. This difference between genders can likely be traced back to the fears each has regarding one-night stands. Men’s wariness of co-workers and friends may be tied to the awkwardness that can ensue post-hookup. Women, on the other hand, were more concerned about strangers, likely due, in part, to the potential risk to their safety. Walk of Shame
