Technology has found its way into every corner of our lives, including our bedrooms. But how has technology changed our sex lives, exactly? To answer this question, the period-tracking app Clue and the Kinsey Institute surveyed 140,000 people (134,000 of whom were women) in 198 countries in June 2017 about their use of apps and other technology to improve their sex lives, sexual health, and relationships.

"I find it most compelling that while apps are so common in so many countries and cultures, technology doesn’t yet dominate our sex lives and relationships. Instead, it’s part of the whole picture," Clue CEO and co-founder Ida Tin said in a press release shared exclusively with Bustle. Amanda Gesselman, Research Scientist at the Kinsey Institute, also has an optimistic view of the research: "While there are many reports on the consequences of technology on our private lives, these results relay a more positive story: that people are leaning on technology to help them create better experiences for themselves and their partners."

From sexting to relationship apps, here are some of the biggest ways technology has influenced the sex and love lives of people — primarily women — around the world, according to the survey.

1 Two In Five Find Partners Through Dating Apps Giphy That doesn't mean they're just looking for hookups, though. Fifteen percent said they use apps mostly for long-term relationships, another 15 percent are using them for short-term relationships, and then just 10 percent are looking for one-night stands.

2 Two Thirds Sext Giphy Though it might involve some initial awkwardness, most women have overcome that hurdle and discovered the joys of sexting. Good job, everyone. The word "sext" may soon be obsolete, though: While the most common way to do it is still through text, Snapchat is the most popular method among those ages 18-20.

4 Two In Five Have Tracked Their Sexual Activity Giphy A surprisingly high 40 percent of those surveyed are doing this. Then again, many of these people were Clue users, so that could explain why. Other than period-tracking apps, some apps are emerging purely to teach you about your own sexuality, like the one accompanying the Lioness vibrator.

6 LGBTQ Folks Are Early Adopters Giphy While only 28 percent of straight people had used dating apps, 44 percent of bisexual or pansexual people, 49 percent of gay people, and 55 percent of queer people altogether had. Way to be ahead of the game.
