There are habits that never go out of style, sometimes becoming dangerous areas of comfort.

The Kamasutra and the Ananga ranga, the oldest bedroom books in the East, left us a vast repertoire of sexual positions to innovate in bed and not fall into repetition, which we know leads to routine, and consequently to boredom.

Of course, some were easy to copy and others impossible, at the risk of breaking their necks, but these millennial manuals edited with drawings, quotations, advice, recommendations, love poems and even spicy stories were the key reference material to spice up intimacy Of a couple, and thereby sustain mutual interest over time. However today sex is what a tweet.

There is little time and a lot of anxiety, so when practicing it unfailingly we fall into the basic choreography of the encyclopedia, sometimes effective, but not always.

A survey carried out earlier this year by the DrEd team (a UK based medical center) between 2000 men and women in the United States and Europe revealed that currently only 4 or 5 heterosexuals prefer sexual positions : The puppy is the most popular (with 35.1 votes) followed by the missionary (22.5%) and the cowgirl (19.4%). Among the findings of the survey is the increasing use of complements not only to practice orgasm but also to soften the preliminary games, in fact 44% of women between 18 and 60 years of US confessed to using toys while 20% of The men claimed to especially enjoy the vibrators. In good time, they are a vital tool to release taboos, fears and friends with our body.

The ones that were left out

Returning to the top ten of the amateur stunts, the celebrated 69 would be losing supporters. Only 4.3% of respondents said they practiced it and, although there have been strong anal sex preachers lately, it has only 2.1% of fans, occupying the 9th position of male preferences. The women did not vote for him, but in return they said they preferred the missionary to the cowgirl, the opposite of the men. According to the research, while most Europeans opt for the can pose, Italians enjoy more of the cowgirl, the Dutch missionary and the Poles of the loving teaspoon.

Two facts to ponder: While it is true that women are taking the reins of their desires and tastes, they remain straight men the “Indiana Jones” bed, at least 75.3% confessed to lead the explorations, although unfortunately with zero Creativity, because 53.8% of them said they are inspired by porn.

Finally, 19.9% of those surveyed expect to meet this year with the fantasy pending on a table.
