As of February 2023, nearly half of single men and just over one-third of single women reported having had sexual intercourse in the past twelve months in France. This proportion was much higher among executives and higher intellectual professions, and particularly among men (65 percent, nearly 20 points higher than the average). Socio-professional category seems in fact to have less impact on whether or not single women have had sexual intercourse during the year than it does among single men.
