According to a study into so-called hook-up culture demonstrated on Tuesday by two researchers at the University of Portland in Oregon at a national convention of sociologists in New York. It emphasizes that to some extent a smaller number of United States (US) college students are having habitual sex, compared to their Generation X predecessors, yet those who do are more likely to be getting it on accompanying a casual date otherwise intimate friends.

Mr Martin Monto as well as Ms Anna Carey compared responses from 18-to-25-year-olds who attended at least one year of university in 1988-1996 to data from their counterparts in 2002-2010. It has been in prominence due to the popular media reports that insist, using data from the General Social Survey, they wanted to see if there was firmly formed proof to prove that hook-up culture has been in a vigorous state on American campuses over the past decade.
