Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.With all the forced romance and high expectation dates, Valentine’s Day can end up being the antithesis of sexy, and many couples probably just end up falling asleep (if they manage not to end up fighting).
It was insanely cruel, then, that for his latest Pedestrian Question, Jimmy Kimmel took to the streets and asked people if they had sex last night (the morning after Valentine’s Day).
Respondents were taken aback by the question but surprisingly game, one girl even grading her boyfriend’s performance (“9.2”, as if he was a Pitchfork album review).
It was Eric won the segment, though, initially saying no, only to decide: “Oh as a matter of fact I did! Yes I remember now it was in the morning!”
A previous edition saw Kimmel ask couples how many times they have sex a month.
