Now lets put things into perspective.
" Urban Indians have one of the most exciting sex life in the world and are also the most open lovers in the world when it comes to talking to partners about sex, says a new global survey.
Almost three-quarters (74 per cent) of Indians surveyed are comfortable with telling their partners what they like in bed way above the global average of 58 per cent and the UK with just 49 per cent, says the Durex ‘Sexual Wellbeing Global Survey "
"Nahi nahi!! udhar nahi....idhar" -- This is probably as honest and open as it can get.
But I wonder what part of "Tum mujhe kya samajhte ho? main us tarah ki ladki nahi hoon." makes the guy comfortable and also how much of it is honest. :P
But yes, I have to admit that young people do talk about sex more often these days and they would probably be quite open about it with their partners. But how much of that openness is actually healthy discussion and how much of it is treated as dirty talk to get off is another thing.
"The survey further points out that two-third of Indians (68 per cent) think their love lives are exciting, a sharp contrast with 38 per cent for English lovers and 36 per cent for famed lovers in France. Moreover, 63 per cent of Indians say they have enough variety, compared with 47 per cent in the UK and just 9 per cent in Japan."
This one is funny. We grow up jerking off to Raveena Tandon shaking her booty to "tu cheez badi hai mast mast" and the English and French are exposed to all forms of sexual experiences from their teens. By the time we have seen a naked lady, the French might have already done things that some of us will be afraid of asking our wives.
" Indian men have averaged six lovers and women have averaged two, while in the UK the figures are 16 and 10 respectively. Globally men, on average, have 13 partners and women have seven. "
Yes my friends. This survey says that Indian men average 6 lovers !!! I have had 2 if I count my hands. It is at times like this that I feel I (and a large majority of my friends from IIT) have let our country down. So friends, from now on.. let us all be "Dedicated to the service of the nation".
(that is the motto or soemthing similar of IIT Kgp)
" Over 26% of young men and 40% of young women reported that they had spent time alone with their first romantic partner at age 15 or below. "
WTF!! Most of the people I know were yet to discover the pleasures of self-appeasement on their 15th birthday. But yes, it could be true if you count the time spent alone in each others dreams or may be when the 2 of you reached class a bit too early and your eyes locked. I dont see too many options here.
" The first reported romantic partner was typically a neighbour or friend (reported by 33% of young men and women), a fellow student or colleague (reported by 30% of young men and 16% of young women) or an acquaintance from outside the village/neighbourhood (reported by 25% of young men and 19% of young women). "
I have lived in the wrong neighborhood, studied in the wrong school, then college and now working in the wrong office OR I just cant get laid.
I would rather let you decide whether we are really the ugliest people in India or is TOI getting a bit too ahead of itself in sex surveys.
