Survey: what do you think about sex?

For a special edition of Ad Valvas, we want to learn more about the sex lives of VU students. Fill in the survey for a chance at winning a €50 voucher.

What does sex mean to you? Are you having it, or would you like to – and if so, with whom? Is it important for you to orgasm during sex? Do you ever cross your own boundaries? These and many other questions are part of the large sex survey Ad Valvas is conducting among VU students.

The anonymous data will be used for publications in Ad Valvas’ special May issue, which will focus on sex. We will explore whether students are having sex and how they experience it, what their thoughts and views on sex are, and how they deal with consent. We are also curious, for example, whether you have ever had a sexually transmitted disease and whether you watch pornography. If you are not currently having sex, or have never had sex, your answers are still relevant for our research.

Take part!

Are you a VU student and willing to (anonymously) share what your sex life looks like? Fill in the survey and stand a chance to win one of ten €50 vouchers.

For the publications, we would also like to interview students about their sex lives. Are you willing to share more about your experiences, anonymously or possibly with your name mentioned? You can leave your contact details for an interview in the survey.

To complete the survey, you need to log in with your VUnetID, but your answers will not be linked to your email address. We cannot see who filled in which responses.
