Lesson 7
Let's think about sex

According to a research team looking at the sex lives of several thousand people in six European countries, British men think about sex more frequently than any other nationality in Europe.

In the UK, 46 percent of men think about sex at least once a day. In comparison, only 28 percent of Italian men and 19 percent of Spanish men think about sex once a day.

France comes as a big surprise - the traditional land of lovers is at the very bottom of the list.

So what is it with the British men: are they more passionate, or just not getting enough of the real stuff?

The highest figure, the whole 10 per cent, goes to Swedish women, who narrowly beat females here in Britain.

Latin women, defying their stereotype, appear to be the least sex-minded.

Only 3 per cent of those in France, Italy and Spain think about sex once a day.
