The aim of this study was to investigate the sexual practice of Mashhad youth. In this study, what is sought is to provide a relatively comprehensive typology in the field of sexual practice of single boys and girls who have sought to meet their sexual needs. This research has been done with a qualitative approach and content analysis. The technique used in this research is semi-structured in-depth interviews and its statistical population is single young people aged 18 to 30 years living in Mashhad. The sampling process was purposeful and with the greatest difference and continued until the theoretical saturation was reached. Accordingly, 50 in-depth interviews were conducted, including 25 interviews with girls and 25 interviews with boys in Mashhad parks and green spaces and coffee Shop. Findings show that in general, 12 types of sexual practice can be explored among single youth in Mashhad. Suppression of sexual needs, masturbation, and contact with the opposite sex are common types among young people. Also, the occurrence of various sexual relations and desires, including: homosexual relations, prostitution relations, master-slavery relations, relations with transgender people, and concubine-based relations are increasing among young people.
