Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has recently conducted a wide-ranging survey of the sex-lives of the university's undergraduates. About 40 percent of students, or 1729 people, responded to the email survey.



Here are the "dry" statistics:

42 percent of all students consider themselves virgins (37 percent of men and 48 percent of women) 
64 percent of freshmen are virgins (60 percent of men and 69 percent of women)
63 percent of all students have had oral sex.
54 percent have had vaginal sex.
15 percent have had anal sex.
84 percent thought anal sex counted as sex
51 percent thought oral sex counted as sex
87 percent of students identified as heterosexual
3.5 percent identified as homosexual
6 percent identified as bisexual
2.2 percent were undecided about their sexual orientation
1 percent of students identified themselves as asexual
30 percent of guys masturbate every day or almost every day
30 percent of girls masturbate weekly

and the fun facts:

Of people who have had anal sex, 2.5 percent still consider themselves virgins.
Course 5 (Chemistry) has the highest rate of virgins — 48 percent
Less than . Of the few who did say they were asexual, 40 percent say they have had sex.
The gayest major is CMS: 42 percent of students who listed CMS as their primary major said they had a homosexual encounter.
Over 70 percent of undergraduate men are "beating the meat at least weekly".
