Are Gen X women having the “best sex”? That’s the suggestion of a headline in The New York Times Magazine, although the article itself is much more nuanced. The author, Mireille Silcoff, points toward the All Fours cultural moment and her own middle-aged divorced women friends having fun and adventurous sex, which is all great. Love that.
Here’s where things get iffy for me: she also highlights generational data showing that overall declines in sexual frequency have been less dramatic with Gen X. Jumping off those numbers, the researcher Jean Twenge declares that “Gen X is the last sexy generation.”
Look, that’s nonsense.
