Are married couples more or less likely to try pegging than dating couples?

1. What the reporting actually shows: no direct comparison exists

None of the provided sources include population-level surveys or statistics that answer whether married couples are more or less likely than dating couples to try pegging; instead the material is descriptive and advisory: dating sites targeted to pegging exist ^[1], marriage-focused blogs discuss how pegging can fit within marriage ^{[2] [6]}, and relationship blogs offer personal accounts and guidance ^{[3] [4] [5]}. Therefore any direct claim about prevalence by relationship status is not supported by these sources (not found in current reporting).

2. Pegging shows up in both dating and married contexts — authors treat relationship type as secondary to consent

The tone across the pieces is consistent: pegging is presented as a sexual practice pursued by couples who communicate and consent, whether they are dating or married. Dating-focused resources describe niche dating sites to meet partners interested in pegging ^[1]. Marriage-oriented posts and advice columns treat pegging as one option among many couples may explore to enhance intimacy, emphasizing mutual consent and safety rather than marital status as the decisive factor ^{[2] [6] [4]}.

3. Personal narratives emphasize intimacy and negotiation, not demographic patterns

First-person reports and advice columns frame pegging as potentially relationship-enhancing when introduced carefully: an essay credits pegging with improving emotional connection for a partnered couple ^[5]; relationship blogs advise frequent discussion, boundaries, and that some couples treat it as novel experimentation while others integrate it more regularly ^{[3] [4]}. These narratives explain how couples decide to try pegging, but they do not quantify whether married couples try it more often than dating couples (not found in current reporting).

4. Religious and moral framing appears in marriage conversations

At least two marriage-focused pieces discuss ethical or spiritual questions about pegging within marriage, indicating that for some readers marital context brings distinct moral considerations; authors urge couples to reconcile sexual exploration with their beliefs and mutual consent ^{[2] [6]}. These discussions show marriage can add a layer of moral debate around pegging that might not appear in general dating-site guidance ^[1], but they still don’t supply comparative rates ^[2].

5. Commercial and community signals suggest demand across relationship stages

The existence of pegging-focused dating sites and many how-to/relationship articles indicates there is interest among single and coupled adults alike ^{[1] [4]}. That commercial presence signals market demand but cannot be read as evidence of higher prevalence among one relationship type versus another; matchmaking platforms and blogs cater to people seeking partners or help regardless of marital status ^{[1] [4]}.

6. How journalists and researchers should fill the gap

To answer your original question rigorously, researchers need representative survey data asking sexual-practice prevalence by relationship status and age cohort, plus qualitative interviews exploring how marriage shapes willingness to try pegging. The current corpus—blogs, advice columns and personal essays—offers hypotheses (e.g., pegging can build intimacy; marriage invites moral deliberation) but not comparative prevalence figures ^{[3] [4] [5] [2]}.

7. Bottom line and reader guidance

Available sources show pegging is discussed and practiced in both dating and married relationships and is framed primarily as a consensual choice rather than a practice tied to a particular relationship status ^{[1] [2] [4] [5]}. If you need an evidence-based comparison (married vs. dating), current reporting does not supply it; seek peer-reviewed sexuality surveys or nationally representative behavioral studies not included in the provided sources (not found in current reporting).
