And you exchange sex for sweets? A third of single women are ready to sacrifice intimate joys, but not favorite foods.
It is said that chocolate is a powerful aphrodisiac, but for some ladies it is quite enough of its taste to get pleasure, and no continuation is required. As it became known after the poll, every third single woman is better off without sex for a year than without a favorite meal. A total of 4,000 people took part in the survey.
But for men, sex has been much more important occupation than absorbing your favorite biscuits and shish kebabs. Only 16% of the respondents of the stronger sex agree to stay without sex for food. However, a second study showed that not only single men and women find solace in food.
Out of 3,500 interrogated married people, 28% are ready to easily replace a good dinner with the performance of marital duties. And if this information still does not seem to you sad, then how about this information: although the majority of respondents who are ready to trade sex for food will do it for the sake of steak or chocolate, some will refuse intimas for vegetable salad, sushi and even a ripe banana! How much "pleasant" for a man to have sex with a partner, if he is ready to exchange it for a banana?
"I think that many people take sex for granted, that's why they do not appreciate it very much," says sexologist Ian Kerner, "It may be that they do not manage to get enough pleasure from intimate relationships. For years, sex has become a routine, partners have learned each other well, they are tired, they want something new, and sex in the full sense of the word looks like fulfilling heavy duties. "It's more pleasant to eat a cake or a Bavarian sausage."
