Peak day for affairs is this Friday (July 22) as schools break up for summer holidays, according to a study

* Frisky Friday sees a 70% rise in extra-marital affairs as adulterers grab one last chance to see their lovers before the summer getaway;

* The first three weeks of July are the busiest time of the year for affairs;
* Second most popular month for affairs is June;
* Other peaks are in September and January as cheats return to their lovers after long holidays with their family;
* Results come from IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

Britons cheat more when the weather is hot – and the peak day for affairs is this Friday (July 22) as the schools break up for the summer holidays, according to a new study.

The whole week before the big summer getaway is the busiest of the year for extra-marital activity.

And it reaches its peak on ‘Frisky Friday’ with adulterers grabbing one last chance to see their lovers before going away with their families.

The first three weeks of July see a 25% rise in activity in extra-marital dating sites.
This shoots up to 54% higher than normal in the third week with a 70% rise on Frisky Friday – the busiest single day of the year for affairs.

Flaming June is appropriately named because it is the second busiest month for cheating.
The third most popular month is September, as cheats hook up with lovers after going away with their families.

The fourth most popular month is January as adulterers return to their secret partners after spending the Christmas break with their families.

The results are revealed in a new survey of 1,000 people IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people.

It found that 82% of adulterers stay in touch with lovers while they are on holiday with their families.

The most popular method is by text, followed by phone chats, FaceTiming, email and Skype.

And 62% of cheats hook up with their lovers within a week of returning home.
One in ten cheats 11% see their lovers while they are away with their families – either by arranging to go to nearby destinations or holidaying nearer home.

Four out of ten adulterers (42%) go on a summer break with their lovers as well as their family – most commonly using work commitments to hide their secret break.

The most popular destinations where adulterers go on holiday are Spain, followed by Italy, America, Thailand and France.

IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said:

“We are experiencing the busiest three weeks for cheating as we head towards the big summer getaway.

Adulterers are grabbing one last chance to have a bit of fun before they head off for two weeks away with their families.

Cheating peaks this Friday when those having affairs can excuse their absence from home by saying they are catching up with work colleagues before the holidays.

All IllicitEncounters.com research shows that the summer months are an incredibly busy time for affairs.

The sun makes us more optimistic and open for adventure. We are all wearing a lot less, too, and that makes people more likely to cheat.

The long nights mean we are more likely to be outside socialising and meeting new people.”

IllicitEncounters.com, the leading authority on infidelity, has more than 1 million registered members in the UK.

Its subscriptions rise by 25% over the summer months as more people look for fun in the sun.

Husbands Beware: Surveyors Are More Likely to Inspect Your Wife Than Your House

  • Surveyors have an affair while on the job more than any other profession, a new survey of over 3,000 people has revealed
  • Plumbers, carpenters and electricians are also among the most adulterous during work hours, finishing 2nd to 4th respectively
  • 55% cited the freedom of movement their job affords as the biggest factor behind their ability to have an affair while at work
  • 40% stated that being self-employed was the number one factor
  • The results are brought to you by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people and the leading authority on infidelity

Less interesting than a fireman, not as heroic as a doctor – being a surveyor seldom turns heads.

Slip under the radar they might, but perhaps they shouldn’t, as a new survey has revealed that surveyors are the most likely to have an affair while on the job.

IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people and the leading authority on infidelity, surveyed over 3,000 men from a variety of different disciplines, with over 60% admitting to having an affair while on the job. Of those who said yes, 15% were surveyors.

A string of manual labour jobs, namely plumbers, carpenters and electricians, occupied positions two to four, with 13%, 12% and 10% respectively.

The survey also found that almost a third (31%) of respondents who admitted to having an affair while working also said that they are having an affair with more than one person, while 55% cited the freedom of movement their job affords as the biggest factor behind their ability to have an affair while at work – 40% stated that being self-employed was the number one factor.

Christian Grant, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, explains:

“The key word here is ‘freedom.’ Being out of the office for hours on end, without the peering eyes of your boss or colleagues, gives you a ton of time and a whole lot of opportunity. And with surveyors often travelling the length and breadth of the country, they can expand their horizons and meet people far outside their locale, decreasing the risk that they’ll be spotted by someone from their neighbourhood.

Similarly, electricians, plumbers and carpenters are regularly on the move, but they can often be their own boss too. They decide their own hours, pick and choose their own clients, and ultimately have no one to report to.

They’ll pop a text to their partner to let them know that a job has overrun and shoot off to fix someone else’s plumbing, so to speak.

In contrast, it’s very difficult for a doctor or a teacher for example to find an opportunity during the working day to meet with their mistress.”

The full results are as follows:

Most Likely to Cheat While on the Job:

  1. Other (24%)
  2. Surveyor (15%)
  3. Plumber (13%)
  4. Carpenter (12%)
  5. Electrician (10%)
  6. Higher Management/Senior Executives (9%)
  7. Lawyer (7%)
  8. Gardener (6%)
  9. Holiday Rep (4%)

A Parliamentary Affair – Gove Repels More than Just Conservative Voters

  • Men and women would most like to cheat with Stephen Crabb and Gloria De Piero respectively
  • Most men would completely avoid Nicky Morgan, while Michael Gove sends most women running for the hills
  • Most men would leave their wife for Theresa May, thanks to her solvency and power, while most women would do the same for Nick Clegg
  • Outgoing Prime Minister David Cameron earned just 2% of the female vote for the politician women would most like to have an affair with, with 3% voting for him in the ‘avoid’ category.
  • 18% of women would avoid Nigel Farage entirely
  • The results are brought to you by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading authority on infidelity

Underneath the political civil war and seemingly impending doom and gloom of a post-Brexit Britain, IllicitEncounters.com, the leading authority on infidelity, asked its members to take part in a slightly different kind of poll, with over 1,000 of them voting on which politician they would most like to have an affair with, divorce their spouse for or avoid entirely.

The results reveal that most women (30%) would most like to have an affair with conservative MP Stephen Crabb, while men would most like to be unfaithful with Labour MP Gloria De Piero – she received 40% of the male vote.

Perhaps rather surprisingly, Theresa May was voted as the politician that most men would divorce their partner for (33%), with 75% of those who voted for her citing her solvency and seemingly imminent rise to the top table as their main reasons for doing so.

The women approached things from a different angle; not choosing someone who was in power, rather someone who has recently relinquished it, as 30% would divorce their husband for former Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg.

33% of those who voted for Clegg did so because they thought he was a decent and genuine man, while 25% said that they thought he would make a good father.

And for the politician that most people would avoid? Well, Michael Gove was a comfortable winner here, raking in 40% of the female vote, while Jeremy Corbyn finished in 2nd place with 20% of the vote.

Men, meanwhile, would most avoid education secretary Nicky Morgan, who gained 35% of the vote. She beat Shadow Health Secretary Diane Abbot, who came second with 25% of the vote.

Outgoing Prime Minister David Cameron earned just 2% of the female vote for the politician women would most like to have an affair with, with 3% voting for him in the ‘avoid’ category.

Former Labour leader Ed Miliband edged out Cameron in both categories, receiving 3% and 4% of the vote respectively.

Former UKIP leader and Brexit figurehead Nigel Farage received 10% of the female vote for the politician women would most like to have an affair with, but 18% would avoid him entirely.

“Politicians are rarely known for their beauty…” says IllicitEncounters.com’s spokesperson, Christian Grant, “…but there are certainly a few presentable MPs.

It was no surprise to see the presentable Stephen Crabb and Gloria De Piero top their respective polls.

With that having been said, perhaps the most notable point is the difference between men and women when it came to the politician they’d most likely divorce their own partner for.

While men gravitated to Theresa May for her power and status – and less so her physical appearance – women placed more importance on different issues, voting for who they felt was the most decent and honest person, as well as who would make the best father.”

Full details of the winners (and/or losers) are listed below:

Sex Is On Fire, As Rock Listeners Are More Likely to Have an Affair

 

Sex Is On Fire, As Rock Listeners Are More Likely to Have an Affair

  • Rock fans are more likely to have an affair, with 27% of adulterers on IllicitEncounters.com citing rock as their favourite genre
  • In 2nd place was country music, followed by blues
  • The joint least adulterous genres were R & B and House
  • Over half of respondents (55%) wouldn’t date someone if they had opposite musical tastes
  • Sexy symbols, such as Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison, have undoubtedly influenced their fans with their adulterous misdemeanours
  • The survey was conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the leading authority on infidelity.

(Illicit) sex is on fire, so says a new survey. IllicitEncounters.com, the leading authority on infidelity, surveyed over 1,000 of their members and found that fans of rock music are most likely to pursue an extramarital affair.

Over a quarter (27%) of respondents chose rock music as their favourite genre, which included the sub-genres of punk rock, alternative rock, grunge, prog rock and rock ‘n’ roll.

Country music came second with 20%, blues third with 14%, while pop music and funk & soul rounded off the top five, receiving 12% and 7% of the votes respectively.

Other genres such as metal, rap and hip hop, r & b, house and electronic/dance received just a small percentage of the overall vote.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, Christian Grant, said:

“With the average age of men and women on IllicitEncounters being approximately 47 and 42-years-old respectively, it’s perhaps of little surprise that rock music come out on top, with many of our members growing up in an era where some of the biggest rock bands of all time were at their peak.

That’s not forgetting the inextricable links between rock music and sex. Whether it’s Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones, Jim Morrison of The Doors or Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, rock music has always provided sex symbols, many of which have led the way with regards to promiscuity.

There’s no doubt that many of our members would have idolised and have been influenced by these artists at some point in their youth.”

Interestingly, the survey also revealed that over half (55%) of members wouldn’t date someone whose music taste is the polar opposite of their own, as Grant explains:

“When establishing a connection with someone, be it friendship or romance, you’re always looking for some common ground, and music is a biggie. Everyone likes music in some form or another, so it’s almost guaranteed to come up in conversation. With so many people passionate about music, vastly different tastes can be a real turnoff.

On the other hand, there are still plenty of people who relish discovering new music that they wouldn’t otherwise go out of their way to listen to, so a partner with different tastes can expand their horizons.”

The full results are as follows:

Genre of Music Percentage of Vote
Rock 27%
Country 20%
Blues 14%
Pop 12%
Funk & Soul 7%
Classical 6%
Rap & Hip Hop 5%
Metal 3%
Other 2%
Electronic/Dance 2%
House 1%
R & B 1%

Yes! Yes! Yes! 68% of women admit faking orgasms – and almost a third of men, too – according to new study

* Men or women who are cheating are much less likely to fake it when they are with their illicit lover;
* Main reason both sexes fake it is to spare their long-term partner’s feelings because sex was taking too long;
* Women are eight times more likely to fake an orgasm with a long-term partner than with a new love;
* Half of women (54%) and 36% of men say there is nothing wrong in faking it;
* Four out of ten women (42%) said they found it easy to fool a lover into thinking they have climaxed;
* Results are from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com – Britain’s leading dating website for married people
Almost seven out of ten women have faked an orgasm – and nearly a third of men, too, according to new study.
It found that 68% of women and 28% of men have pretended to climax with a partner.
Half the women surveyed (54%) said they had faked it because the sex was taking too long and they didn’t want to hurt their partner’s feelings.
Other reasons women gave for pretending were they found sex boring (37%), not in the mood (36%),  too tired (35%),  they had drunk too much alcohol (28%), their partner was new and could not satisfy them (16%), they struggle to climax through intercourse (15%).
Sparing a partner’s feeling was the main reason men fake it – chosen by 22% of those questioned, followed by too much alcohol (20%).
One in ten men said they had faked an orgasm during a one-night stand after realising they had made a mistake.
The results come from a new poll of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading dating website for married people.
It found that women were eight times more likely to fake an orgasm with their husband or long-term partner than with a new lover or someone with whom they were cheating.
Men were three times more likely to pretend with their wife or long-term partner than with someone they had just started dating or having an affair with.
Half the women questioned (54%) said they saw nothing wrong in faking a climax because to reveal the truth would cause more harm.
Fewer men (36%) saw nothing wrong in faking it.
Four out of ten women (42%) said that it was ‘easy’ to fool men into thinking they have climaxed.
Only 12% of men said they would find faking it ‘easy’.
Actress Megan Ryan is probably responsible for the most famous faked female orgasm in movies in the scene in Where Harry Met Sally where she
explained how easily women can fool men by faking an orgasm while eating in a busy diner.
IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said: “It is very clear from these findings that there are a lot of women having rubbish sex with their husbands and long-term boyfriends and faking it to spare their feelings.
“It is easier to do that than confront the deeper problems in a relationship.
“Perhaps what is more surprising is how many men are faking it, too – largely for the same reasons as women. They put on an act because their marriage or long-term relationship is stale  and they are going through the motions when it comes to sex.
“All IllicitEncounters.com research shows that couples enjoy their best sex right at the start of a relationship when things are still fresh and you are both excited to be trying something new.”
IllicitEncounters.com has more than one million members in the UK.
Male members are mostly white collar professionals – earning an average of £54,000 a year.
Women tend to be younger than male members and they date more frequently – averaging three dates a month to men’s two.
Why women fake orgasms
1 Sex was taking too long and they didn’t want to hurt their long-term partner’s feelings 54%
2 The sex was boring (37%)
3 Not in the mood 36%
4 Too tired (35%)
3 They had drunk too much (28%)
4 Their partner was new and could not satisfy them (16%)
5  They struggle to climax through intercourse (15%)
 
Why men fake orgasms

Shame of Thrones: The Top 5 Biggest Cheats In Game of Thrones Revealed!

Shame of Thrones: The Top 5 Biggest Cheats In Game of Thrones Revealed!

•    Cersei Lannister, former Queen of Westeros, has been crowned the most adulterous character in Game of Thrones
•    She was followed by her twin brother Jaime and first cousin Lancel, whio finished 2nd and 3rd respectively
•    The characters were judged against several criteria, including whether they were caught and their prominence in the show
•    ‘Shame of Thrones’ is brought to you by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

War, politics, betrayal, and in this instance, adultery. Game of Thrones explores a variety of serious themes and topics, and with its sixth season having just wrapped up, a team of experts at IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, looked back with a fine toothcomb on the show’s most adulterous characters these past six seasons, ranking them accordingly.

Several criteria were considered, including the socioeconomic and political implications of the affair, whether the participants were caught and the prominence of the persons involved.

The top 5 are as follows:

Number 5 – Renly Baratheon 

Occupation: former self-proclaimed Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm. Now deceased.
Had an affair with: Loras Tyrell
When: seasons one & two
Caught: yes, by his wife Margaery
Consequences: not much, Margaery didn’t seem to mind
What the experts say:

“A gay man forced into marrying a woman for the wrong reasons – you feel for Renly a little bit. However, he wasted very little time cheating on Margaery, and with her brother to boot.”
Number 4 – Shae

Occupation: former prostitute and handmaiden. Now deceased.
Had an affair with: Tywin Lannister
When: off-screen in season four
Caught: yes
Consequences: strangled to death by Tyrion Lannister
What the experts say:

“Given Tyrion’s enormous popularity among fans, many felt for him when he found out that Shae had had an affair with his father. It is his father’s involvement, followed by Shae’s brutal murder, that puts Shae at number 4.”

Number 3 – Lancel

Occupation: member of the religious movement, the Sparrows
Had an affair with: Cersei Lannister
When: seasons one & two
Caught: yes, by Tyrion Lannister, but he eventually confessed
Consequences: post-confession, he becomes a key member of the Sparrows, turning on Cersei and the Lannisters in the process.
What the experts say:

“The Lannisters certainly like to keep their affairs close to home, and Lancel is certainly no exception. It is the implications of his confession that cement his position as number three.”

Number 2 – Jaime Lannister

Occupation: Lord of Casterly Rock and head of House Lannister
Had an affair with: Cersei Lannister
When: season one
Caught: yes, by Bran Stark
Consequences: he pushed Bran out a window
What the experts say:

“Involved in an incestuous, adulterous relationship from the very first episode, and directly paralyzing one of the Stark children as a direct result, Jaime has earned second place.”
Number 1 – Cersei Lannister

Occupation: former Queen of the Seven Kingdoms
Had an affair with: Jaime Lannister and Lancel
When: seasons one and two
Caught: yes, her affair with Jaime was seen by Bran Stark, and both she and Lancel confessed about their affair
Consequences: performed a walk of atonement through the streets of King’s Landing as a result of her affair with Lancel
What the experts say:

“From episode one, Cersei was committing adultery. It was on-screen, it was kept within the family, and the implications were significant – from Bran’s paralysis to Cersei’s walk of atonement.

Cersei is quite easily the most adulterous character in the series, and we’d be stunned if that were to ever change.”

Blondes may have more fun – but brunettes make the better lovers, according to a new survey

  • They are more adventurous in bed and like sex more;
  • But blondes are more likely to cheat;
  • Nine out of ten of us (91%) say that a sense of humour is a big factor when choosing a lover.
  • Men really do think about sex more than women – with 59% admitting it is on their mind several times a day, compared to just 45% of women.
  • Results are from a new survey which tested the truth of well-known sexual sayings by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading website for married people
Blondes may have more fun, but brunettes make the better lovers, according to a new survey.

They are more adventurous in bed and like sex more.

Almost six out of ten people (58%) say brunettes are better in bed.

The results are the same for men and women – just 16% chose blondes, followed by lovers with black (12%) and red hair (9%).

Four out of ten respondents (42%) say brunettes are more likely try new things in the bedroom.

And just fewer than half those polled (47%) also say that brunettes are the most sexually voracious.

The results are a resounding victory for brunette beauties such as Kate Beckinsale, Emily Blunt and Natalie Portman over blondes such as Scarlett Johansson and Cameron Diaz.
They are from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading dating website for married people.

Blondes may not be best for sex but they are top when it comes to cheating.

Just over half those polled (54%) said blondes are the most unfaithful, followed by brunettes (26%) and those with black (12%) and red hair (8%).

The poll tested the truth about some of our other well-known sexual sayings.

You CAN laugh someone into bed.

Nine out of ten of us (91%) say that a sense of humour is a big factor when choosing a lover.

And a quarter of women (24%) say they would sleep with a man who is funny even if they aren’t attracted to his looks.

Don’t judge a potential partner’s prowess in bed by their moves on the dance floor.
Three-quarters of women (75%) and 63% of men say their best lover was a terrible dancer.

Most people aren’t swayed by money when they are looking for a partner.

More than six out of ten of us (64%) say income is irrelevant, though a third (33%) admit it is a factor but not the main one.

Just 4% of us say wealth is the ultimate turn-on and that money can buy you love.
One saying which appears to be true is the fact that quiet people are more sexually voracious.

More than a third of us (36%) say this is the case most of the time and 56% reckon it is sometimes true. Just 9% say quiet people are also shy in the bedroom.

Men really do think about sex more than women – with 59% admitting it is on their mind several times a day, compared to just 45% of women.

Christian Grant, spokesman for IllicitEncounters.com, said: “There is no doubt that blonde women get more interest from men on dating sites.

“But they are not likely to make the best lovers and they need watching carefully because they could be dating someone else at the same time.

“This new research from IllicitEncounters.com shows that brunettes might be the best options if you want to have fun on a date – and a great time in the bedroom.”

Most of IllicitEncounters.com’s male members are white collar professionals earning an average of £54,000 a year.

Women on the site cheat more than men – enjoying three clandestine dates a month, compared to men’s two.

Men With Big Feet Are More Likely to Cheat!

  • Men with a shoe size of 10 or over are at least twice as likely to cheat on their partner, compared to those with a shoe size of less than 10
  • The most common shoe size for adulterous men was 10.5
  • Many famous celebrity cheats, including Bill Clinton and Tiger Woods, sport a shoe size of 10 or over
  • There was no correlation to be found between adultery and shoe size when it came to women
  • The research was conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

Having big feet means you have a large c… chance of having an affair. IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, surveyed over 1,500 of their male members and found a positive correlation between a man’s shoe size and their likelihood of having an affair.

Men with a shoe size of 10 or over are at least twice as likely to have an affair than those with a shoe size of less than 10, while the most faithful men sport feet between the sizes of 7 and 9. The most common shoe size for adulterous men was 10.5.

Spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, Christian Grant, said:

“While many would argue that there’s more to having an affair than one’s foot size, the data doesn’t lie. Men who sport a shoe size of 10 and over account for 85% of all men on the site, with the remaining 15% having a shoe size of 9 and under.

It looks like women whose husbands have small feet can sleep relatively comfortably at night, while those with husbands who have a big pair of loafers should perhaps be more mindful.”

The results of the study also correlate with various celebrity cheats, with Bill Clinton, Tiger Woods, Hugh Grant and Gavin Rossdale all sporting a shoe size of 10 and over.

Interestingly, the same could not be said of women. Of the 1,000 women who were surveyed, there was no correlation to be found between big feet and adultery, though the most common shoe size was 6.5 (13%).

“While women across the country have something to potentially stress over, the nation’s husbands have the privilege of not having any feet related paranoia,” said Grant.

Will Your Marriage Survive Euro 2016? Survey says: Probably not, no.​

  • IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, saw 72% of all female signups between Friday and Sunday cite their husbands’ obsession with the football as their main reason for wanting to cheat
  • There was a 61% rise in site usage compared to an average, out of season weekend, peaking at two hours before and two hours after the start and conclusion of Saturday’s match between England and Russia
  • 35% of the weekend’s female signups admitted to wanting an affair because their partner would rather watch football than have sex
  • 20% said that football provides them a good opportunity to cheat
  • A further 25% said that their partner becomes “unreasonable” when watching football

Thousands of ‘football widows’ have taken to the internet in search of an affair in the wake of the European Championships.

IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading website for married people, has surveyed their new female signups between Friday 10th and Sunday 12th June, with almost three quarters (72%) citing the European Championships, or rather their husbands’ obsession with it, as their main reason for joining.

The site also reported a 61% rise in site usage compared to an average, out of season weekend, which, rather unsurprisingly, peaked between two hours before and two hours after the start and conclusion of Saturday’s match between England and Russia.

Christian Grant, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, commented:

“A mid-summer weekend in June is generally an out of season period for us, so these results should provide a wakeup call of sorts to the millions of football fans across the UK.

With three games a day for several days, and the involvement of all our home nations with the exception of Scotland, we can be quietly confident these numbers are going to maintain this level over the next few weeks or so.”

Of the women who signed up between Friday and Sunday, 35% claimed they had done so because their partner chose football over sex.

A further 25% claimed that their partner becomes “unreasonable” during football, while 20% said that they used the European Championships as the perfect distraction to sign up to the site.

Grant added:

“With nine months of domestic football having only just come to its conclusion, another month of constant neglect, with other sporting events such as Wimbledon and the Olympics following shortly after, is proving to be the final straw for thousands of women.”

Rosie, 38, said:

“When the football is on, my name is only mentioned because of the occasional request for beer and snacks, or if my husband has used me as a punchline to a joke so he can impress his mates. Other than that, I might as well be invisible.”

Beer goggles do exist – and you are more likely to have sex on date if you have been boozing, according to a new survey.

* Three-quarters of women said booze had made a man they had not previously fancied seem more attractive;
* 84% of men said alcohol had changed their first impressions of a female date and made them keener to take things further;
* The vast majority of women (86%) said they were more likely to sleep with a man on a date if alcohol was involved;
* 92% of men said booze made sex more likely on a date;
* The results from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Britain’s leading dating website for married people

Three-quarters of women (74%) said that alcohol had made a man they had not previously fancied on a date seem more attractive.

And 84% of men said a few drinks had changed unfavourable first impressions of a female date and made them keener to take things further.

The vast majority of women (86%) said they were more likely to sleep with a man on a date if alcohol was involved.

Nine out of ten men (92%) said booze made sex more likely on a date.

The results come from a new survey of 1,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, the leading dating website for married people.

The dictionary definition of beer boggles is the “phenomenon in which one’s consumption of alcohol makes physically unattractive persons appear beautiful.”

The survey found that 54% of women had ended up having sex with a man while wearing beer goggles.

In 84% of cases, the women had not seen the man for a further date.

Two-thirds of men (64%) had had beer goggle sex – and most (76%) had not seen the woman for a second date.

Despite these findings, 68% of women and 82% of men like to drink alcohol on a first date.
The main reason both sexes hit the booze is that it ‘helps to break the ice’ – chosen by 72% of women and 87% of men.

Most men (77%) and the majority of women (64%) said they felt more confident after a drink.

The most popular time to wear beer goggles is when you are student.

More than half of men (54%) and 48% of women said they had had beer goggle sex when they were at college.

IllicitEncounters.com spokesman Christian Grant said:

“Dating is a stressful business – you are meeting a new person and need to make a good impression fast.

It’s no wonder that both sexes finding that drinking alcohol makes the whole process a lot easier.

As the booze flows, inevitably the beer goggles come on and dates that might have finished with a quick peck on the cheek end up going far further.

That is the experience of millions of people who are dating online including lots of members of IllicitEncounters.com – you end up kissing a few ugly ducklings before meeting your swan.

Beer goggle sex may not lead to true love most of the time, but it can often be a lot of fun.”

llicitEncounters.com has more than a million members in the UK.

Most of its male members are white collar professionals earning an average of £54,000 a year.

Women on the site cheat more than men – enjoying three clandestine dates a month, compared to men’s two.
