Britons are known for their conservative nature – but in the bedroom it’s a different matter, according to a study.
The UK has come second in a ranking of the world’s sauciest countries, drawn up by researchers who looked at Google search volumes for sex-related terms, including sex toys, sexy lingerie, dating apps, sex tips, kinks and sex positions. These were then crossed-referenced with population to reveal a ‘Sexy Search Index’.
According to the data, the sexiest nation in the world is Portugal, with its citizens’ most popular kinks being BDSM, threesomes and electrostimulation and their most-searched-for erotic toys being dildos, fleshlights and butt plugs.
