But wealthier countries with higher gender equality have more sex -- including casual sex.
All around the world, a concept called "sexual economics" is at play. The principle goes something like this: Women have something men want, and it's called sex. Women's sexuality has a price that men's does not, so men trade resources with women just to get some: money, promotions, marriage proposals.

The controversial adult services section may not have a happy ending.
Craigslist has been taking it on the chin from Attorneys General in many states and has, at least for now, closed down their Adult Services section.
