In distant overseas countries, we are waiting for beautiful sexy men and charming women - popular rumor often attributes to foreigners unprecedented dignity. Do the sexual stereotypes correspond to a particular nation of reality?
Old good Europe
According to research conducted by Durex, the Greeks were the most sexually active. They have sex much more often than others (approximately 138 times a year) and almost everywhere. However, to start in Greece in all serious should be cautious: in this country, safe sex is not in vogue. 70% of the population do not take any precautions.
Sex with Italians usually remain satisfied. Statistics confirms: in this country, quality is more important than quantity. Italy is a metrosexual country. Narcissistic, knowing the price, the Italians do everything "perfect", taking care not only of their enjoyment, but not forgetting about the partner's interests. Italians make love much less often than Greeks (only 106 times a year), but everywhere: in the car, on the beach, in the park, in the garden. Less popular are except that toilets - they in Italy, really, leave much to be desired.
The French around the world are known as romantic lovers. However, the famous French charm, alas, only acts in the courtship phase. In sex, the French are conservative. Do not use a variety of toys, only a few prefer to practice sadomasochistic games and tantric sex. Adultery is much less common than it is commonly believed: after marrying, only a quarter of the respondents were on the side. Make love in this country a lot - about 120 times a year, but the average sexual intercourse lasts no more than 14 minutes, including preliminary caresses and kisses.
As in everything else, in sex the Germans are thorough and down to earth. A respectable average German burgher engages in "this" 104 times a year extremely physiologically, fulfilling an urgent need, similar to the daily clean teeth. In Germany, earlier than other countries, children begin to receive sexual education (from about 11 years old) and earlier lose their virginity (about 15 years or less). The Germans, unlike other Europeans, prefer to love each other only in the bedroom. They are less inclined to change partners and only one-tenth of the citizens of united Germany change their spouses (in other EU countries the number of unfaithful spouses is 2-3 times higher).
But the stiffness and coldness of the inhabitants of the Foggy Albion is not confirmed by statistics. Englishmen are happy to use sex toys, are open to new ideas. They can have sex almost everywhere, preferring cars and parks. More than half had sex for one night. However, marriage is taken seriously: only 14% of percent changed the other half.
Love in the New World
The debauchery and sexual omnivorousness of Americans are legendary. Indeed, the inhabitants of this country more often than others diversify their sexual lives: they let the third person go to bed, enter into relations with persons of their own sex, practice anal sex and are more likely to use vibrators. The vast majority make love outside the home, choosing for this car or a toilet stall. And one fifth of respondents admitted that at the most interesting moment they include a video camera. Surprisingly, while everyone is extremely afraid of accusations of sexual harassment, one in five manages to get an affair at work. However, such diversity, apparently, leads to satiety, and therefore only half of Americans have sex at least once a week, while more than 50% of those surveyed with their sex lives are happy.
Research confirms the reputation of beauties and macho from Latin America, not overshadowed by prudish prejudice. With sex they have complete order, and they are ready to do it in practically all places that are more or less adapted for this purpose. It is interesting that they manage to do this much more often than representatives of other nationalities at work and even in public transport. Local men and women, lifelong dancing lambada and other incendiary samba-mambas, where you have to work well with your hips, do not need various stimulants and vibrators - according to polls.
In search of exotic pleasures
After learning all the poses of the Kamasutra, do not go to practical classes in India. Its residents were the most "sexually unconcerned". Apparently, the ancient book about the art of love was written in order to slightly diversify the intimate life in this country, whose citizens have an average of no more than 3 partners and later all (almost 20 years) enter for the first time in sexual relations. Half of the surveyed residents of India said that it is right to refrain from close contacts before marriage. Here, almost no one tried the threesome, did not use vibrators, did not have a homosexual relationship. The night with the Indian will be rather boring and without romance: they are less likely than other inhabitants of the world to buy massage oils that excite aromas and are absolutely not interested in erotic literature. Local residents are not attracted to sex outside the bedroom: 65% make love only there. The only variety that every fifth allowed himself was sex in the parents' bedroom. Indians enter into an intimate relationship much less often residents of other countries (only 75 times a year). The figures are worse only among Singaporeans (73 times) and continuously working Japanese (45 times).
However, all the same is true for other countries of southeast Asia: Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore. Their residents are much less likely than Europeans to have sex (and prefer only its classical version), do not welcome any variety and they often have to resort to means that prolong sexual intercourse.
Residents of Turkey confirm the reputation of the ladies' man. On average, each Turk had more than 14 partners (this is an absolute world record!), More than half of the respondents changed their spouse and had a connection for one night. What kind of love with the Turk? Residents of this country prefer traditional or anal sex, without any "European newfangled tricks" - toys and bindings. With a fairly loyal attitude to marital fidelity, and only half of those who participated in the survey think about safety, only 8% said they had ever suffered from sexually transmitted infections.
Conversations about the merits of black men cause a rapid heartbeat in many women. The opinion that people from Africa are faster-higher-stronger not only in sports competitions, but also in sex, is confirmed by statistics only partially. On the one hand, Africans practice all forms of sex and are ready to do it anywhere: from car to beach, from nightclub to public toilet. World record holders for the duration of the sexual intercourse were Nigerians engaged in love continuously for at least 24 minutes. However, similar "long distance races" happen infrequently: only half of the inhabitants of this country have sex at least once a week. At the same time, dreaming of black handsome young ladies, it is worth noting that most Africans do not think about the consequences and do not use means of protection.
Before you go to the far end of the world in search of a better partner, do not forget that statistics are good for marketers. A living person is unlikely to focus on the average statistical indicators. The opinion of psychologists is unequivocal: when the effect of novelty disappears, you understand that foreigners differ from domestic characters much more strikingly in appearance than in sex.
