How much sex are Cambridge students having?

Varsity last carried out a sex survey in 2008. Since then a lot has changed – what are students up to in 2022?

Results will be published in our print edition next Friday (28/10)Pixabay / Alex Parnham-Cope

Which college gets around the most? What subject has the most sexually active students? In which clubs do the romantic sparks fly?

It’s been over a decade since Varsity ran its last university-wide sex survey, and in that time a lot has changed. Dating apps are a staple on students’ phones, Snapchat has replaced romantic letters, and Cindies’ has shut down.

As right-wing journalists lament that Gen-Z aren’t having enough sex, there isn’t be a better time to get Cambridge students to divulge (anonymously) about their sex life than now.

Complete the form below by 11.59pm Wednesday 26th October, and pick up a copy of the paper on Friday 28th morning to see the results.

Support Varsity

Varsity is the independent newspaper for the University of Cambridge, established in its current form in 1947. In order to maintain our editorial independence, our print newspaper and news website receives no funding from the University of Cambridge or its constituent Colleges.

We are therefore almost entirely reliant on advertising for funding and we expect to have a tough few months and years ahead.

In spite of this situation, we are going to look at inventive ways to look at serving our readership with digital content and of course in print too!

Therefore we are asking our readers, if they wish, to make a donation from as little as £1, to help with our running costs. Many thanks, we hope you can help!
