Sex helps Brits beat the credit crunch
Cash strapped Brits are turning to sex as a budget way of entertaining themselves during the credit crunch.
A YouGov survey has found that we are switching romantic evenings out, gym memberships and spa treatments for evenings in and a bit of a romp.
In fact getting passionate with a partner was the most popular recession activity for the 2,000 surveyed, ahead of gossiping with friends, going to a museum or window shopping.
Just to think, men have spent all this time trying to get into womens knickers and all they really needed was a global economic meltdown.
Lisa Power, of the Terrence Higgins Trust who commissioned the research said: "During the credit crunch our famed British upper lip might not be as stiff as before but other parts still are.
"We’re glad that people are finding ways of relieving some of their credit crunch woes, but if there’s one thing it’s worth forking out for, it’s condoms."
The helpful people at Terrence Higgins Trust even compiled this chart to show you how much you can save by having more sex.
Romantic dinner for 2 = £58 or Bottle of wine + Sex = £6 (for wine)
Gym membership = £45 month or Sex = £0 (all month)
Full body massage at salon = £6 or Full body massage from partner = £0
Insightful wasn't it?
