Sex life (in India)? What sex life …???

Another ridiculous article is published.

New Delhi: Urban Indians have one of the most exciting sex lives 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’.

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.

The Greeks (76 per cent) and Mexicans (80 per cent) are the only two countries to have a more exciting sex life than Indians. The survey covered more than 26,000 people online across 26 countries talking about every aspect of their sex lives.

I can point out so many problems in the article and the survey, but I just highlight one.

The survey covered more than 26,000 people online across 26 countries talking about every aspect of their sex lives.

Given the cost of the internet service in India, only the upper class has access to the internet, and that upper class is very very small. Population in the class does not represent the whole country; there is a huge chasm between between this population and the rest. Furthermore, erotic materials and sexy underwear are virtually non-existent. Of course, the definition varies greatly from country to country, but ‘erotic’ and ’sexy’ in India are extremely conservative. Books on sex are scarce; there aren’t that many books sold to begin with. Literacy rate is quite low, so how can they possibly read anything …??? Sex products like vibrator and such are virtually impossible to get.

This article is a fine example of pathetic journalism in India …
