“Friends” has been off the air for several years now, but still has legions of fans including me. Til this day, I recite various quotes from the show like “Unagi”, “This just go interesting” and many more. I especially love quoting the episode where Rachel and Monica faced off against Joey and Chandler in a game of trivia. Speaking of trivia, I came across an article that revealed some very interesting random facts from the sitcom.
Ever wonder which of the “Friends” was the sluttiest? Well, Splitsider.com surveyed all 236 episodes of the NBC show and did all the painstaking research. So, what were their findings? Over the course of 10 seasons, the Central Perk crew hooked up with 85 sexual partners. Some of you might think that that’s either really low or high, depending on your degree of proclivity. Splitsider.com only included people who actually appeared on the show. They didn’t take into account the characters’ respective pasts unless they appeared in a flashback episode and guest starred on the sitcom.
After diligently going through each episode, here is each character’s “number“.
Chandler Bing
Played by Mathew Perry
Sexual Partners: 9
Monica Geller
Played by Courtney Cox
Sexual Partners: 13
Rachel Green
Played by Jennifer Aniston
Sexual Partners: 14
Ross Geller
Played by David Schwimmer
Sexual Partners: 16
Phoebe Buffay
Played by Lisa Kudrow
Sexual Partners: 16
Joey Tribbiani
Played by Matt LeBlanc
Sexual Partners: 17
Not surprisingly, Chandler and Joey bookend the results with Joey on top with 17 hookups. Given that Joey was the only character never married on the show, the findings make sense. To read splitsider.com’s in depth research and view its chart, head over to their website. It’s worth a read, so definitely check it ouy.

Joey’s actual number is waaaaaaay higher if you take into account all the off-camera hookups he had (my all time favorite was the “yauuuuchhhh” girl who was still sleeping in his bedroom”
