We-Vibe Unveils New Study on Gen Z and BDSM

Apparently, Gen Z baes love BDSM and submission…

Sex toy retailer We-Vibe releases a new study, exploring sex trends across generations.

According to We-Vibe, “Gen Z and Millennials emerge as the frontrunners in BDSM experience. Among Gen Z, 11% have frequently engaged in BDSM, with 22% trying it out a few times.”

Gen Zers are also more experienced with BDSM than their older Millennial and Gen X counterparts. “These differences underscore a generational shift: younger people are not only more experienced but also more open to exploring BDSM,” the report stated.

As for what style of BDSM Gen Zers love: role-play. It’s the most common BDSM practice and interest across generations, too.

Gen Z also “reports more experience with submissive activities, while Millennials and Gen X report more experience with dominance.” Lastly, “Gen Z is most eager to explore being spanked and embracing a submissive role.”
