A new infographic on the results of the Czech pilot study is available! It shows that women born between 1990 and 2002 began to live sexually at 16.5 years old on average. In comparison with older generations, this age is lower. On the opposite, men’s average age of the first sexual intercourse has been stable around 18-19. The results of the Czech pilot study with 1 327 respondents also showed that women usually decide on contraception use more than men.
The infographic is available in Czech only. New infographics in Czech or English will be posted regularly in the Notable results section.
A significant decrease in short-term and long-term fertility plans occurred among young people aged 18-39 between 2020 and 2022, when the data collection of the first wave of the "Contemporary Czech Family" (Czech GGS-II) took place. In 2022, respondents indicated that they wanted to have a child in the next three years and in the more distant future less often than in 2020.
