Chat with sex outlook
Fast forward once, take a look into the future and know immediately how things could go on after the date with a potential partner … Well, at least an American study provides an interesting approach. According to the chat history, you should be able to see how high the chances of a date – and of sex! – stand.
For the study of 5,600 singles, researchers from the University of Indiana and Chicago have come together and found interesting results. In fact, a detail in the chat between potential partners should reveal how to proceed. Emojis!
The more emojis are used in the chat history, the greater the chance of a date and even sex should be. So: Sometimes pictures – or emojis – say more than words … But before you get started, be aware: Some emojis have a completely different meaning than we think. ?
Corona and sex: do they go together?
We prefer not to shake hands, we don't hug each other – the corona virus has arrived in our everyday lives. But what about our beds? Can I still have sex in times of corona panic? Or rather: do I want?
First of all: what you do how and with whom in your bedroom, you alone allow. So you can of course continue to have sex. However, today we would think less about "whether" than "with whom".
In principle, the following applies: So far, sexual intercourse per se should not be regarded as a means of transmission, but it is not entirely certain. Of course, sex can still infect you with the corona virus, both from saliva and from viruses on your hands. Even if you do not kiss, you inevitably come very close – and the viruses can jump from one to the other while you are busy.
In the end, everyone has to assess their personal risk for themselves – but with "casual" sex and one-night stands, the risk of infection is currently greater than in a partnership. Unless you simply add a corona catalog to common dating questions, according to the motto: Have you recently been in a risk country? Do you have a fever? Did you have contact with sick people? Then the sexual tension is over anyway.

Country comparison sex
Well, vacation already booked? We would have a little inspiration for you – at least if it is going to be hot. And no, we're not just talking about temperatures, but above all about bed habits.
Thankfully, Statista has looked at the "average number of sex acts per week" in a country comparison. And so much can be revealed: Germany is not doing very well. But let's start with the leaders:
- 1st place: Greece with 3.2 times sex per week
- 2nd place: Brazil with 2.8 times a week
- 3rd place: Russia with 2.7 sex acts a week
For comparison: the Germans only rank 14th in this statistic, they should jump to bed with their loved one on average 2.2 times a week. Well, we're still at a good level – in Japan they only came to 0.9 times.
Wait honey, two more minutes …
Too little or too much information: When it comes to sex, minds split. While some would like to play mice in someone else's bed, others want to keep their love life strictly private. But: We are all a bit curious. And luckily there are researchers who do the asking for us.
So how long does a sexual act last? To find out, scientists asked a total of 500 couples of different nationalities to document their sex lives. Armed with a stopwatch, they should record how long their sex lasted. The result: 5.4 minutes.
So that's how long the good old average sex lasts. But honestly: Who wants average sex? The study has an even more exciting result: The data submitted ranged from 33 seconds to 44 minutes.
And that shows us: sex is not average and statements about the most beautiful thing are not generally valid. Our conclusion is: Good sex lasts as long as it feels good for both partners. Whether quickie or slow sex – it's all in the mix.
