Data Reveals the Number of Sexual Partners the Average American Has - and You May Be Surprised
The most uncomfortable question in every relationship: what's your number? As in, how many people have you slept with? To find out the average number of sexual partners a person has had as well as the feelings surrounding the subject, a recent study surveyed over 2,000 people in the US and Europe. Turns out, the average American has had 7.2 partners while the average European has had 6.2. On top of the median counts, America's highs and lows ranged at much more drastic extremes, from 2.6 (Utah) to 15.7 (Louisiana), vs. Europe's 5.4 (Italy) to 7.0 (UK).
The survey also asked the participants at what number they considered someone to be "too promiscuous." Women answered 15.2 while men said 14; both, however, closely agreed on the "ideal number" of partners for someone to have in their lifetime at 7.5 (women) and 7.5 (men). Lastly, when asked what count they thought of as "too sexually conservative," France, Portugal, the US, the UK, and Italy all reported two. Austria was the clear outlier, saying that seven sexual partners was prudish. OK, Austria!
Where does your number fall?

I think the the number of 7.2 sexual partner that the American people have in a lifetime is to low. I think 7.2 partner is the average of partner that some American people have in a year. If we count the number of prostitute and one night stand in club the number is maybe higher.
There is sexual freedom in the USA the man have a wife and the woman have a husband but in their jobs they are having sex and relationship with coworkers. In their one hour lunch time they go in their cars in the parking lot to have sex or they go in the hotel. I think the average American people have 20.5 sexual partner in their lives.

So where does that put home run hitters like Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Clinton? They are in the thousands.
