Question

The prompt presents a claim and asks us to evaluate it against general patterns in research on sexual activity and relationship status. 
Option A) 'A) True' – An explanation for why someone might think this could be true is to consider dating dynamics: singles may have more opportunities for new sexual encounters. However, this reasoning overlooks how commitment, time, and relationship satisfaction can influence sexual frequency, and it assumes opportunity always translates into frequency. In many studies, singles report fewer sexual encounters on average than people in steady relationships, especially as they age or when dating is infrequent. Additionally, sexual behavior is influenced by many factors (health, partner availability, cultural norms, and life stage), so a blanket 'true' claim oversimplifies the data. 
Option B) 'B) False' – This choice aligns with the nuance that average sexual frequency is not consistently higher among single people compared with those in committed relationships. In fact, the available research often shows that people in committed relationships, such as married or cohabiting couples, report similar or even higher frequency of sex than singles, particularly when long-term compatibility and emotional connection are present. It also captures the variability across different populations and age groups, where singles may have fewer opportunities or different priorities that reduce total frequency. 
In summary, Option A relies on an assumption that opportunity equals frequency without accounting for relationship structure and life stage, while Option B correctly reflects that the assertion is not universally true across studies and populations. The contrast highlights why the statement about single people having more sex on average is not a reliable generalization.
