In 2000, 0.7% of women reported having sexual intercourse with three or more people; by 2025, that figure had increased to 6.8%. Among men, the percentage increased from 3.2% in 2000 to 20.1% in 2025. These are some of the findings of the Censis report "Italians' Pleasure. How Sexual Customs Are Changing", which surveyed a representative sample of 1,000 Italians aged 18 to 60, 25 years after the previous major poll on sexual behavior in Italy. However, traditions persist: 80.4% of Italians in the sample have sex exclusively with the person with whom they are in a stable relationship, 12% only with the individual or people they see on occasion, and 6.2% with both the person with whom they are in a stable sexual relationship and other occasional partners simultaneously. Italians are now experimenting with sex more than they were 25 years ago, while still preferring stable relationships.
