Online writing platform EduBirdie conducted a survey on How Remote Work is Changing Gen Z’s Sex Lives? The findings offer a fascinating glimpse into how flexible work is reshaping intimacy for Generation Z (often cited as those born between 1997 – 2012).
Surveying 2,000 Gen Z workers, EduBirdie asked whether working from home has sparked more romance or killed the mood. The results?
- 47% say they’re having more sex thanks to working from home.
- 30% schedule sex in advance — a true meeting of calendars and chemistry.
- 31% worry that returning to the office could decrease their sex lives.
- 29% believe going back to work in person might improve the romance in their relationships.
- 38% think workplaces should include a private hookup space — while 62% firmly disagree.
It may not be surprising that remote work opens the door for more flexible moments of intimacy, whether that means connection with a partner or solo time for self-care. With fewer commutes and more control over schedules, the lines between personal and professional lives continue to blur in ways previous generations never imagined.
The takeaway? As our work environments evolve, so too do our relationship and the spaces where we nurture them.
