In the Big Apple, a lot of couples are going at it, sans protection.
68.2 percent of residents polled said they did not wear a condom the last time they had sex, according to some numbers just released by the Department of Health’s Community Health Survey for 2012. That correlates to 1,408,000 people using protection as opposed to 2,669,000 that prefer to just cross their fingers.
The survey broke down the barebacked activity, and Greenpoint leads the survery with a surprising 85.8 percent of the Brooklyn neighborhood going bareback.
They weren’t the only neighborhood that prefered to go raw. Ridgewood and Forest Hills reported that 79.9 percent of its residents prefer the unprotected road, with the Upper West Side right behind them at 77.4 percent.
In Coney Island, 75.2 percent of people are riding the Cyclone wooden coaster without a safety harness. So to speak.
But why is such a large majority of the Big Apple shunning condoms during their most intimate moments? Maybe they are trying to savor the feeling while it lasts. According to Nerve, the average New York sex session lasts about three minutes and one second.
