Sexuality and Long Distance

Most people agree that a key part of a relationship is sex. In fact, according to the in-house study I referenced above, 73% of people consider sex “essential” or “important” in their lives. But where does that leave you if your partner is thousands of miles away?

Many people turn to video chatting to ease their loneliness and see their lover’s face again. About 48% of those polled in our survey talked to their partner daily or several times per week using Skype or a similar video-based chat service. Does this often translate into cybersex? Maybe.

Could innovative sex devices be a solution for long distance intimacy? Over 30% of respondents said Yes.
