Which States Rank Highest in Sexual Satisfaction?

Published

on

A recent nationwide survey by NapLab delved into sexual satisfaction across the United States, revealing some surprising trends. The results, summarized in an eye-catching ranked chart, showed that the average satisfaction rating was a modest 4.77 out of 10. This number hints that many Americans are not fully content with their sex lives. Even more surprising was that 23.6% of respondents rated their satisfaction as low as 1, while only 10.6% reported a perfect score of 10. Although 45.6% of participants said they engage in sexual activity at least once a week, it seems frequency didn’t translate into higher satisfaction levels.

Which States Have the Best Sex?

The top 10 states with the highest sexual satisfaction scores are as follows:

  1. Oklahoma
  2. Kentucky
  3. Texas
  4. Maine
  5. Iowa
  6. Louisiana
  7. Arkansas
  8. New Hampshire
  9. Georgia
  10. South Dakota

A notable pattern emerged, with many of the highest-ranking states located in the Bible Belt, challenging the assumption that these religious and conservative areas might report lower satisfaction. On the flip side, states like Virginia, New Mexico, and Alaska reported scores below 3, despite earlier NapLab studies showing elevated levels of sexual activity in these states.

Several factors could be influencing these scores, including the impact of technology, shifting social norms, and amount of alcohol consumption. Improving sexual satisfaction may involve better communication with partners, more non-sexual physical intimacy, and even investing in a quality mattress.
