We're going to get an average, eventually, which will be representative of the national average, since this forum represents a good cross-section of society.
The people who said "plan to remain a virgin forever" won't be counted in the average, unless they come forward, identify themselves, and explain why this isn't a joke.
This forum has way to small a sample size and isn't quite random enough. We have a bias towards college educated intellectuals. (not to say you have to be one to debate well, just that there are more of them on this forum percentage wise than America as a whole) A couple of kids who had unusual experiences might skew the statistics way off. Furthermore, not everyone on this forum is from the U.S. Finally, your poll doesn't post exact enough numbers to get a good estimation.

This poll is fine if you want to use it for general reference on the forum, but don't take it any farther than that if want to maintain a realistic estimation.
