The Foreign Policy magazine has a new take on international relations by reporting on the findings of the latest Durex Global Sex Survey which is touted as the world's largest survey of sexual behaviour with 317,000 participants in 41 countries. In the survey, Chinese people reported an average of 3 sexual partners and more than a third have engaged in unsafe sex. Our Hong Kong compatriots were just a tad more amorous than us but they were a lot safer. Still they were no match for the Indians who were the most committed (and safest) lovers in the whole wide world. Turkey was by far the most promiscuous nation according to the survey (looks like they're taking their secularism to heart) and Norway the least safest nation in the world when it comes to condom protection. Now the only thing we'd like to know from Durex is this: Just who were their respondents in China? Probably not our horny, corrupt officials we reckon.
