Sex in Canada

The Who, Why, When, and How of Getting Down up North

pulling the covers off Canadians’ sex lives.

Sex in Canada pulls the covers off Canadians’ sex lives, examining what we do, how often, and with whom. Written by an expert on the sociology of sexuality, this book reveals Canadians’ sexual behaviour using a one-of-a-kind social science survey of Canadian adults. It gives us a glimpse into our bedrooms, breaking through myths about our sexuality with frank talk, solid data, and a sense of humour. 

ANSWERS TO YOUR PENETRATING QUESTIONS

Before “Sex in Canada,” the research on the sexual habits and practices of Canadians was largely unknown.

• What age group is having the most sex?
• Which province?
• Do men orgasm more than women? (I think we know the answer to that one.)
• Who has more sex: gay men or lesbian women?

For the first time, Tina Fetner answers all those questions, plus dozens of others, including some you didn’t even think to ask. That’s what Sex in Canada is here for, to ask those penetrating questions.
