After 15 years of common life, what do we still hide from his partner? Still a lot, according to a new study by Joyclub.fr. The relationship with toilets is especially complicated, even taboo. Even the deepest love has its limits!
62% of couples keep the door of the toilet closed
The survey, carried out in June 2025 with 1900 couple participants for at least 15 years, with an average age of 51 years, reveals that most partners pose serious limits in terms of bowl. 62.5 % of long -standing union couples categorically refuse to go to the toilet in the presence of their partner.
“”This data reveals that preserving certain intimate aspects is not a sign of distance, but on the contrary of mutual respect “Judith Langer analysis, sexologist and communication manager at Joyclub.
Everyday gestures that we prefer to hide from your partner
The study reveals a clear hierarchy of bodily taboos:
- Development: 62.5 % private care;
- Menstrual hygiene: 48.2 % of women vs 43 % of men;
- CUERE NOSE: 37.9 %;
- Extract ceromen: 32.1 %;
- Fart: 26.2 %;
- ROTER: 25 %.
The generational cleavage of flatulence
Another surprise of the survey: 43.1 % of the over 65s avoid farting in front of their partner, against only 11.1 % of the under 34s.
“”This generational difference shows the evolution of intimacy codes “observes Eva Joy, Community Manager of Joyclub.fr. “”Young couples adopt a more relaxed approach to the body, while previous generations maintain certain modesty protocols that have crossed the decades. “
On the other hand, contrary to popular belief, Uriner remains acceptable for 83 % of sustainable couples. “”This shows that intimacy is not binary“, Underlines Judith Langer.”Couples unconsciously establish a graduation of what can be shared or not “.
The study also reveals that emotional expressions follow the same generational logic: the more partners are aging, the more they preserve their moments of emotional vulnerability.
Limits that strengthen love
Depriving your partner from your break in the toilet is not a bad sign, quite the contrary.
“”Place limits in a relationship does not mean hiding from each other, but finding a balance between deep intimacy and conscious discretion“Explains Judith Langer.”These data prove that individual limits do not harm a long -standing relationshipbut on the contrary promote it. “
In summary, the most fulfilled couples may well be those who know how to dose transparency and mystery. You are warned!
