Chinese bite “forbidden fruit” at much younger age

From Xinhua:

Boys and girls between 14 and 20 in urban China have their first sexual experience at the average age of 17.4, nearly 9 years earlier than their grandparents when they were young, according to a survey published on Tuesday.

The survey of 2,252 respondents in seven Chinese cities shows that people between 51 and 60 years old first had sex at an average age of 26, those between 21 and 30 first had sex at 21.9 on average…

The survey also reveals Chinese attitudes toward premarital sex. All together, nearly one out of five respondents approved of it. More young citizens approve premarital sexual relationships, and more men than women said “there is nothing wrong with it.”
