Heterosexual men 18 and over say that they average 63 sex acts per year, using a condom in 23 percent of them. This adds up to more than 1.6 billion heterosexual condom uses per year. Heterosexual women say they average 55 sex acts per year, using a condom in 16 percent of them. This adds up to about 1.1 billion heterosexual condom uses per year. Who is telling the truth, men or women? Neither. According to Nielsen, fewer than 600 million condoms are sold every year. Americans may also be exaggerating how often they have unprotected sex.

QUANTI ATTI SESSUALI CON PRESERVATIVO? QUANTI PRESERVATIVI USATI?
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 27
About 11 percent of women between the ages of 15 and 44 say they are sexually active, not currently pregnant and not using contraception. Even with relatively conservative assumptions about how many times they are having sex, we would expect 10 percent to become pregnant every month. But this would already be more than the total number of pregnancies in the United States (which is one in 113 women of childbearing age).

Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 57
media amplifies our biases. The root bias, though, is overestimating the frequency of the vivid and the memorable.
