I would say it’s not too rare, but it’s not too popular either. I’ve done it only once. I can understand a lot of women wouldn’t be in the mood and or be in pain so it’s no longer enjoyable. I’m a bit of a hit and miss with my symptoms, sometimes I’m feeling great sometimes I don’t want anything or anyone near me.
Then you need a guy who is keen on it. Some people are put off with the blood.
Edit: and yes in my previous comment I meant people specifically yearning for it (both the “reliable period sex” + “look forward to it”, that’s somewhat uncommon.)
As a fetish I don’t get it, but as a normal activity I have literally done it with every long-term partner I’ve ever had. Some women bleed for up to a week? Guys just don’t want sex for a week? There are showers and towels. No big deal.
I doubt there’s many bleeding at the same intensity the whole week. Discomfort is usually during the peak, and that’s usually one day or two. I’m talking about people who seek this peak. Yeah if you take into account fringe days I probably done it more times.
But then there’s couples that don’t have a lot of sex. Skipping a week doesn’t bother some people that much. Yeah my face is as puzzled as yours but I’ve known some. Each to their own
Orrrr you know, people who just don’t have that much libido and are otherwise content. Or literally anyone in a happy partnership but on the asexual spectrum. Or mature people who have longer refractory periods. Or people with busy schedules who are too tired during the work week. Etc etc etc.
Wait, is period sex not normal in most relationships? Or do you mean people who specifically yearn for it?
(Asking as a man who knows how towels work)

Oh yes, those poor people in dead bedrooms that don’t understand how divorces work.

I don’t have any data, but I do not think period sex is normal. None of my partners have ever been keen on it, from my anecdotal experience.
That’s crazy, that’s like literally a quarter of your time together depending on the woman. It’s just blood?
It’s crazy that other people have different libido levels than you?
Crossing off up to 25% of your life together for sex, not the libido part.
There’s more to a relationship than sex mate. That’s what libido is.
