Most Brits have sex at work
For Britons, it seems that the term “job satisfaction” has a whole new meaning, with one in five admitting to sex at work.
Yes, a new survey in Britain has revealed that one out of five people has had sex at work — in fact a quarter of men would consider selling bodies for money while one in ten women would sleep with someone to advance their career.
It found that almost half of all Britons (49 per cent) have had a one-night stand, with men (57 per cent) more likely than women (42 per cent) to have done so.
But a generation gap was revealed, with more than two thirds (that is 64 per cent) of those aged between 25 and 44 having had a one-night stand, compared with just 24 per cent of those aged 65 and over.
Moreover, according to poll commissioned by The Observer newspaper, one in five Britons does not believe that monogamy is desirable, while three out of ten actually do not think that it is natural.
