The survey asked French people aged 18 and over if they had ever engaged in virtual sex activities with their partner. The statistic showed that most women aged over 50 (80 percent) had never shared their sexual activities through a webcam, video, photo or through text, compared to 70 percent of men. Among those under 30, three out of five men and nearly half of women had already had sex with their partner virtually.
