The number of Australians having sex outside of their relationship has increased, according to new data. As stigmas and cultural attitudes change, the number of people engaging in an open relationship is on the rise, as couples explore options outside societal norms. Of the 50,000 Australians who took part in the survey, 1.4 percent said they were in an open relationship.
Interestingly, despite Gen Z being widely credited for shunning traditional dating structures, the Great Aussie Debate data found twice as many millennials were currently engaged in open relationships. There were also twice as many people ages 40 to 49 in open relationships compared to the 18-to-29 age group. “We both get pleasure from the other’s pleasure—even if it is with someone else,” one participant in the study said.
