This Explains EVERYTHING

No wonder Philadelphians have a reputation for being surly. Turns out Brotherly Love is the only kind of lovin' we get. According to a survey conducted by Trojan Condoms, Philadelphians only have sex an average of 73 times a year. That ties us with Dallas and Chicago for the second-lowest rate of sexual activity in the country. To make matters worse, Philadelphians are only 64% satisfied with what action we do get.

Joining in on the irony, San Francisco, the city where free love was founded, has the lowest number of sexual encounters a year. Citizens residing in the City by the Bay only get freaky 60 times annually. Our apologies, SFist, but glad we're not the only ones.

Part of Trojan's study also points out that the Independence Day holiday is a major weekend for condom sales and that said, dear Phillyists, you should know what to do. Run out and grab a pack (because safe sex is better for everyone, the last thing we need is to be ranked #1 in STDs) and get to making some 4th of July fireworks of your own. It'll definitely help with our sexual frequency ranking, and who knows—it might just help improve your attitude a little bit, too.

Stay tuned for our interview with Trojan’s VP of Marketing to find out a little more about why our poor beloved Philly is orgasm-light!
