UK women more confident than European counterparts in the bedroom

While us women are always worrying about our ‘wobbly bits’ – it seems we forget all our misgivings when it comes to getting between the sheets.

Compared to our European counterparts, British ladies are the most confident in bed, far more interested in how good it feels (72%) and how fit their partner looks (57%) than how they themselves look (43%) or how they’re doing in the sack (also 43%).

Despite this sexual revolution, some of our standard British traits still remain. We tend to worry more about the amount of noise we are making, instead of whether we are enjoying ourselves or not! And despite our success rate in the bedroom, the French are still having more sex than us (8.2 vs. 6.5 times a month respectively).

These findings accompany the launch of Mates SKYN. Designed to revolutionise sex with a condom, it’s the closest thing to wearing nothing because of a new, non latex material called Sensoprene. But be warned, the research also found that we may have to watch out for unfortunate videos of ourselves ending up on the web. A quarter of men and women have recorded themselves doing the deed with their mobile phone and half of British adults under 30 have sent an explicit picture with their phone (50%). Oh the shame!

Sex and relationship expert Jo Hemmings says, “In my view, imagination is key to having great sex. As indeed is being able to relax. Using a safe, natural feeling condom enables us to relax without the fear of pregnancy or contracting an STI, keeping us focussed on that all-important pleasure principle.”

So with the number of Christmas parties coming up, it’s best if your big present is gift wrapped!
