Sex: triple A rating for Italy. In Europe we have the sexiest men and women

The recovery of Italy's image in Europe? It begins in the bedroom. If there is one area in which the Italians are second to none and did not seem affected by the crisis, is under the sheets. 2 European women of 10 (20%) consider the Italic males better at reading between the inhabitants of the continent. But the surprise Italian women seem to have become the most desired of Europe, so that Europeans consider the sexiest of the Scandinavian and even Brazil.

These are the findings from research conducted by C-Date (www.c-date.it), site leader in online dating. After interviewing 5,670 Europeans aged between 25 and 60 years on numerous issues related to the erotic sphere, one fact is incontrovertible: the rating of the Italians in bed is unmatched and worth triple A.

When asked "In your opinion who is more successful in the bed?" The answer was the same, from Germany to Belgium, Austria and Norway: les Italiens. With little satisfaction, of course, for all the others, well-spaced, by the French and Spanish, tied for second place (12% of the vote), the Swedes and Germans, tied with 7%, Norwegians and Dutch (4%) to Austria (3%), the Swiss and Belgians, with only 2% of the vote.

The redemption becomes total when it is learned, unexpectedly, that the average European male fantasies of the Italian women appear to be the most good in bed. They, with a resounding 25%, to dominate the top of the top ten of Europe's most desired, followed by Spanish (13% of preferences), French (12%), Germany (6%), Swedish (6%), Norway (4%), Austria (3.5%), Netherlands (3%), Switzerland (2.5%) and Belgian (2%).

But where does this happen? As for males, possibly benefiting even the fame of savoir faire Latin, while for women, is also the merit of our icons of feminine beauty for export, such as Monica Bellucci and Carla Bruni.

The skills we have in romantic relationships is also reflected by the small things. If fact, for most countries the gesture that is more attractive smile is the first meeting (41%), this is only for the Italians in second place (29%), while the preference is for a more physical approach: it brushing against with her partner attracts 43% of respondents. Among other gestures judged most attractive in the beautiful country, the third place there is a low tone of voice (11%), followed by brushing against the hair (10%), and cross your legs (23%).

If you want to make a suggestion to the Europeans, maybe interested in testing the skill of the Italians in bed, you might advise them to resort to some trick - or enhancement - to win the attention of men and women of the boot. For women: if Alps accessory more appealing to the stronger sex is the natural make-up (33%), it is good to know that in Italy would have a much more successful in sexy lingerie having 35%. For men, however, would be a good bet to use a good aftershave, which say they are particularly sensitive to 35% of Italian respondents, even more effective if accompanied by muscles in a conspicuous place (like 30% of respondents).

The research reveals another unexpected given the erotic behavior of the Italians: with increasing age men increasingly use the imagination to enrich the erotic fantasies, gradually abandoning the voyeuristic attitude towards sex. If between 18 and 29 years, in 42.5% of cases, the boys admit to populate your erotic imagination with models and Hollywood actresses, or resort to explicit videos, from 40 to 50 eroticism traveling more and more about wings of the imagination (50%). Apparently people need a certain maturity to approach a kind approach to the world of eros typically the preserve of women.
