CHICAGO — One dating site claims Chicago women think age 20 is the sweet spot for losing one's virginity.

A "virginity survey" was conducted of female members nationwide to find out what the "ideal" age is to have sex for the first time, "sugar daddy" dating site SeekingArrangement.com said Wednesday.

Out of the 6,148 Chicago members who responded, 42 percent said 20 is the ideal age for sex, according to SeekingArrangement. That's above the national average of 17.4, according to the Kinsey Institute.

But it's in line with the responses the site received in other large cities, SeekingArrangement spokesman Leroy Velasquez said. Cities such as Pittsburgh, Tampa, Baltimore, Sacramento and others said holding out until age 20 or thereabouts is ideal.
