Survey your own faculty.  Should make you an icon on your campus and do
wonders for the impression others have of your department. 

Seriously, I would suspect the Hite report (I mean literally suspect),
or perhaps data could be found in something like The Joy of Sex or
elsewhere.  I am not familiar with any empirical studies and a quick
PsychInfo search turned up nothing.

I don't have the numbers offhand, but I know where I'd look: the _Hite
Report_ books on male and female sexuality, respectively.  They'll
even tell you what percentages of respondents used particular
techniques.
