Luke Littler crowned “Sexiest Sportsman” on the planet – beating every six-pack in sport

* Darts star Luke “The Nuke” Littler  has sensationally been voted the world’s sexiest sportsman.
* The 18-year-old saw off fierce competition from global icons like Tyson Fury (2nd), Lando Norris (3rd), Carlos Alcaraz (5th) and Travis Kelce (6th).
* Littler has been hailed a ‘working class hero’ whose ‘pub-lunch physique’ and authenticity has redefined what women find attractive.
* The results come from an annual survey of female members on IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people.

Darts sensation Luke Littler has pulled off the most unlikely victory of his career yet – being crowned the “World’s Sexiest Sportsman”, beating boxing legend Tyson Fury, NFL heart-throb Travis Kelce and football golden boy Jude Bellingham.

The poll, conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating site for married people, asked 2,000 of its UK-based female members to score a 30-strong list of the biggest male sports stars in the world from 1-10 – based on their “sexiness”.

And it was 18-year-old Luke “The Nuke” Littler who stunned everyone by taking the top spot in 2025 – proving that sex appeal isn’t all about six-packs.

Littler saw off fierce competition from 2023’s winner Tyson Fury, who landed in 2nd place, and British F1 star Lando Norris (3rd). In a further twist, darts rival Luke Humphries made it to 4th place, whilst Spanish tennis ace Carlos Alcaraz completed the top 5.

Jessica Leoni, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, credits Littler’s rise to his unapologetic authenticity and his complete lack of pretense, which she says women find deeply attractive.

Leoni commented: “The results are definitive: women are utterly over the chiseled, air-brushed look. They are craving authenticity, approachability, and confidence – and Luke Littler delivers all three in spades.

“He is the anti-supermodel sportsman. Littler’s appeal lies in the fact he’s a working-class hero who acts like a normal bloke and has a ‘pub-lunch’ physique. He owns it, he’s a winner, and he doesn’t feel the need to chase physical perfection – that self-assuredness is the most powerful aphrodisiac of all. 

“While a chiseled jawline is traditionally considered ‘sexy,’ the results prove that confidence is sexier than a six-pack,” Leoni added. “Littler is the new blueprint for male attraction: a man who is brilliant at what he does and completely comfortable in his own skin.”

Scorching Temperatures Send Affairs Site Sign-Ups Soaring During a ‘Cheatwave’ as UK Baked on the Hottest Day of the Year

* Affairs site IllicitEncounters.com saw a 58% surge in new sign-ups in the past four days – peaking on Tuesday as temperatures hit 34.7°C

* Women made up 62% of new members, with the biggest spike among 35–44-year-olds

* 68% of new members said the heat made them feel “more impulsive,” while 55% admitted the weather gave them the “final push” to cheat

* Experts say “sundrunk” Brits lose inhibitions in hot weather, entering a holiday mindset even at home

As Britain sweltered through its hottest day of the year, with temperatures hitting a blistering 34.7°C in London, experts are warning of an unexpected side effect of the heatwave – a dramatic surge in cheating. 

Dubbed the ‘cheatwave’, this phenomenon has seen sign-ups to the UK’s leading affairs site, IllicitEncounters.com, skyrocket by 58% over the past four days, peaking on Tuesday as the mercury climbed to its highest level.

Experts point to a dangerous cocktail of hormonal surges, lowered inhibitions, and “heatwave hedonism” that drives otherwise loyal partners to stray. “When the sun blazes, so do passions,” says Jessica Leoni, sex and relationship expert for IllicitEncounters.com. “We see this with every heatwave – the hotter it gets, the more people seek excitement outside their relationships. Extreme heat essentially rewires our impulses.”

From Saturday to Tuesday, new registrations on the affairs site surged by 58% compared to the same period last year, with Tuesday being the peak. Women accounted for 62% of new members, with the most common age group being 35-44-year-olds (45%), followed by 45-54-year-olds (32%).

One member who joined on the hottest day of the year, “Sarah” (39, from Brighton), admits the scorching weather pushed her over the edge. “I’d been unhappy for months, but the heatwave was the final nudge,” she says. “Yesterday, I was lying in the garden, sweating, bored, and scrolling on my phone. The sun made me feel restless – like I needed to do something reckless. By 4PM, I’d signed up.”

Sarah isn’t alone. A poll of 1,000 new members found that 68% said the heat made them “more impulsive,” while 55% admitted they’d been considering an affair for some time – but the soaring temperatures gave them the “final push.”

Sexpert Jessica Leoni added, “The sunshine strips away inhibition. It’s like the British public have collectively entered their holiday persona – even if they’re not abroad. We call it ‘sundrunk.’ You’re not drinking rosé on the Med, but you’re mentally already there.”

‘Sexiest Politician’ Debate Makes It to Parliament

* The annual poll by IllicitEncounters.com crowned Nigel Farage and Angela Rayner Britain’s ‘sexiest politician’.

* Results from the poll sparked a media frenzy, with discussions about the results aired on ITV’s Lorraine and This Morning, as well as Jeremy Vine’s show on Channel 5.

* The poll also became a talking point in the Houses of Commons when Reform MP Richard Tice brought up the topic in Parliament.

It’s the story that got everyone talking this morning – from daytime TV sofas to the green benches of Westminster. The results of this year’s annual UK’s Sexiest Politicians poll by IllicitEncounters.com didn’t just light up the press – it even made its way into the House of Commons.

That’s right. Reform MP Richard Tice stood up in Parliament this morning and, with a glint of mischief in his eye, declared: “It’s important to celebrate the awards given to honourable colleagues. So will the Leader join me in congratulating both the Deputy Prime Minister and also the honourable member for Clacton for winning the award in their respective categories as Britain’s sexiest politicians, on that well-known website IllicitEncounters.com? Does she recommend they have dinner together?”

The line earned chuckles across the chamber – and sealed the poll’s place in political pop culture history.

The cheeky parliamentary moment capped off a media frenzy that saw the poll discussed everywhere from ITV’s Lorraine and This Morning to Jeremy Vine’s Channel 5 show, proving political sex appeal is no longer just tabloid fodder but mainstream conversation.

At the heart of the commotion? Nigel Farage and Angela Rayner, who were crowned the UK’s sexiest male and female politicians for 2025. Farage retained his title for the second year running, proving once again that his signature rebellious charm and unapologetic swagger haven’t lost their edge.

Rayner, meanwhile, soared from fifth place last year to first, her fiery wit and fierce authenticity striking a chord with admirers across the political spectrum.

Not far behind Farage was Robert Jenrick, who narrowly missed out on the top spot by a single percentage point. Also climbing the ranks were James Cleverly, jumping from seventh to third, and newcomers Dan Aldridge and James McMurdock, who made bold debuts in the top five.

On the women’s list, Reform UK’s Sarah Pochin made an immediate impact with a second-place debut, nudging last year’s winner, Suella Braverman, into third. Labour’s Jade Botterill and Conservative Julia Lopez rounded out the top five.

Jessica Leoni, sex and relationships expert at IllicitEncounters.com, said: “When we first ran this poll, we never imagined it would end up being spoken about in the House of Commons – but here we are. Whether it’s on Lorraine, This Morning or in Westminster, it’s clear this light-hearted look at power and attraction has struck a national chord.

Farage holding onto his crown, Angela Rayner rocketing to the top, and Robert Jenrick becoming a surprise heartthrob – it all proves that in politics, it’s not just policies that turn heads. Power, presence and a bit of cheek clearly go a long way.”

UK’s Sexiest Politicians For 2025 Revealed

* Nigel Farage and Angela Rayner are officially the UK’s sexiest politicians.

* The Reform UK leader has managed to hold on to his crown for the second year running, whilst Angela Rayner shot to the top after coming 5th in 2024. 

* The Tories remain the sexiest party (33%), but Labour (31.5%) and Reform UK (27.5%) follow closely behind.

* The results come from an annual survey of members on IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people.

The UK’s ‘sexiest politician’ annual poll by IllicitEncounters.com has revealed some surprising shifts this year – but one man in particular is standing firm.

Nigel Farage has once again been crowned the UK’s sexiest male politician, securing 21% of the vote. The Reform UK leader, whose cheeky grin and maverick charm seem immune to fading appeal, topped the male rankings for the second year running.

Hot on his heels – just one tantalising percentage point behind – was Conservative Robert Jenrick, who earned 20% of the vote, firmly establishing himself as Westminster’s newest pin-up.

In a major leap, James Cleverly has surged from seventh place last year to third in this year’s poll. Labour’s Dan Aldridge and Reform UK’s James McMurdock made their debut on the list, securing fourth (12%) and fifth place (10%) respectively.

Notably, Prime Minister Keir Starmer saw a steep decline in votes, falling from 3rd place in 2024 to 9th in this year’s rankings.

Among female politicians, Angela Rayner’s rise has been nothing short of meteoric. Labour’s deputy Prime Minister has surged from fifth place last year to claim the top spot, as her blend of working-class grit, fiery wit, and unapologetic passion appears to have won over male voters in droves.

Following closely behind was Reform UK’s Sarah Pochin, who took 19% of the vote, making a striking debut in this year’s poll. 

Suella Braverman – last year’s winner – still holds strong in third place with 15%, Labour’s Jade Botterill followed in fourth with 14%, and Conservative Julia Lopez rounded out the top five with 12%.

Overall, the Tories once again came out on top taking 33% of the total vote share across both male and female categories, making it the sexiest party – but only just. Labour followed closely behind (31.5%) and surprisingly, Reform UK is inching closer with 27.5% of the vote.

Commenting on the results of this year’s poll, Jessica Leoni, sex and relationships expert at IllicitEncounters.com said, “Farage has proved once again he’s the political equivalent of that leather jacket in your wardrobe – slightly controversial, impossible to get rid of, and somehow still looking good after all these years. 

In politics, power is an aphrodisiac – and our members are never shy about telling us who gets their hearts racing. This year’s results show that confidence, conviction, and a little controversy remain irresistible traits.”

Amanda Holden voted UK’s “sexiest woman” in 2025’s surprise-filled poll

* Amanda Holden tops the first annual “UK’s Sexiest Woman” poll.

* Lily Allen, Stacey Solomon and Angela Rayner join her in the Top 5, alongside a mix of TV stars and unexpected political picks.

* 2,000 men rated 50 of the UK’s most famous and culturally relevant women on sex appeal.

* Poll conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s largest extramarital dating site.

TV royalty Amanda Holden has been crowned the UK’s sexiest woman, topping IllicitEncounters.com’s first-ever poll dedicated to female public figures turning heads in 2025.

In the site’s inaugural Sexiest Woman poll, 2,000 male members were asked to rate 50 of the most talked-about women in British public life – from TV favourites and pop stars to politicians and presenters – on a scale of 1 to 10 based on their sex appeal.

Amanda Holden took the crown ahead of the release of Netflix’s controversial new reality show, Cheat: Unfinished Business, thanks to her cheeky confidence and age-defying presence. She was closely followed by pop provocateur Lily Allen (2nd), while Stacey Solomon (3rd) proved her down-to-earth warmth and Essex charm has huge appeal.

One of the biggest surprises was Angela Rayner, the Deputy Prime Minister, who claimed 4th place – upending political stereotypes and showing that no-nonsense sass and a killer blowdry are irresistible in 2025.

Meanwhile, This Morning’s Cat Deeley and TV it-girl Maya Jama made strong showings at 5th and 6th respectively. In the survey which asked men who (if given the chance) they would choose to have an affair with, Holly Willoughby, Zara McDermott and Carol Vorderman rounded out the Top 10.

GB News presenter, Ellie Costello, landed just outside the Top 10 in 11th place – narrowly missing out on a top-tier finish. Meanwhile, Eastenders star, Patsy Palmer, made a surprise re-entry into public affection after her stay in the Big Brother house, coming in strong at 13th.

Fashion icon Alexa Chung (17th) and actress-activist Jameela Jamil (19th) also featured high on the list, showing that brains and bold opinions never go unnoticed. 

Female politicians didn’t go unnoticed, with Suella Braverman taking 12th place while Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves, found herself at 48th. 

Meghan Markle’s sparkle appears to be fading as she landed in last place at 50th. Meanwhile, Princess Kate fared slightly better than her sister-in-law, coming in at 27th.

The results come hot on the heels of last week’s ‘UK’s Sexiest Man’ results, which saw Piers Morgan rocket from 40th to 1st place, proving that controversy, confidence and charisma are firmly back in fashion.

Jessica Leoni, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, said: “This year’s list proves that men’s tastes are evolving – and fast. Whether it’s Amanda Holden’s glam power or Angela Rayner’s political punch, what’s clear is that confidence and individuality are the new sexy. We’ve seen the same with Piers Morgan on the men’s list – there’s a growing appetite for personality over polish.”

Piers Morgan voted UK’s “sexiest man” – knocking Jeremy Clarkson off the top spot

* Piers Morgan stormed to first place in UK’s Sexiest Man 2025 poll after ranking 40th last year.

* Jeremy Clarkson loses out after his two-year reign, whilst Danny Dyer, Dermot O’Leary and Jonathan Ross round off the Top 5.

*  2,000 women rate 50 of the most famous and culturally relevant men from across public life on a scale of 1 to 10, based on their sex appeal.

* Poll conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s largest extramarital dating site.

Controversial broadcaster Piers Morgan has been named the UK’s “sexiest man” in a new poll of 2,000 women – dethroning two-time champion Jeremy Clarkson, who slips to second place in this year’s rankings.

The annual survey, conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating site for married people, asks its female members to rate 50 of the most famous and culturally relevant men from across public life on a scale of 1 to 10, based on their sex appeal.

It marks a major comeback for Morgan, who languished in 40th place just last year. But whether you love him or loathe him, there’s no denying that his signature no-nonsense style, quick wit and unshakeable self-belief have struck a surprising chord with women in 2025.

Joining Morgan and Clarkson in the top three is new entry cockney actor Danny Dyer, whose blend of bad-boy charm and blunt East End charisma seems to have appeal with female voters. Meanwhile, TV favourite Dermot O’Leary enjoyed a strong rise in this year’s rankings, jumping from 10th to 4th, closely followed by chat show veteran Jonathan Ross, who leapt a remarkable 18 places to claim 5th.

In the survey which asked women who (if given the chance) they would choose to have an affair with, Sunday Brunch presenter Tim Lovejoy made his debut landing 6th, but perhaps one of the biggest surprises of this year’s poll is the appearance of Tory Shadow Secretary of State for Justice, Robert Jenrick in 7th place. 

Comedian Bob Mortimer took 8th place, whilst presenter Ben Shephard landed 9th, and funny-man Romesh Ranganathan will undoubtedly be disappointed, having dropped three places this year (10th).

The results weren’t without a few eyebrow-raising exits from last year’s top spots. Hollywood actor Tom Holland fell from 2nd to 17th, Cillian Murphy dropped from 5th to 20th, and Idris Elba slipped to 25th after ranking 6th in 2024. Even Prince William, who had previously enjoyed a surge in popularity, tumbled from 3rd to 31st, while his brother Prince Harry failed to make the Top 50 altogether.

New entries included McFly’s Danny Jones, who courted controversy in March after being caught kissing Maura Higgins at the Brit Awards, with the headline-grabbing moment helping him land in 12th place. Post Office campaigner Alan Bates also made a shock entry into the Top 50, coming in at 41st.

Politics had an unusually strong showing this year. Nigel Farage, one of the UK’s most polarising public figures, soared from 39th to 11th. Even Boris Johnson saw a modest rise, climbing two places to 28th.

Sporting stars also featured throughout the list. England defender Kyle Walker impressed at 13th, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta held steady at 14th, and David Beckham, despite being a regular on “sexiest man” lists in decades past, dropped eight places to 19th.

The full list spanned celebrities, politicians, athletes and other public figures – proving once again that sex appeal is about far more than good looks. From quiet confidence to outspoken charisma, the qualities that turn heads in 2025 are refreshingly varied.

Jessica Leoni, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, said: “We were expecting surprises this year, but even we were taken aback when Piers Morgan soared to the top of the table. His unapologetic style clearly taps into something deeper for a lot of women – confidence, conviction, and not being afraid to ruffle feathers.”

Irish accent crowned the sexiest in the UK – but it’s not good news for West Country folk

* The Irish accent has emerged victorious as the UK’s sexiest accent, winning the hearts of both men (29%) and women (32%).
* Unfortunately, people from the West Country have less to celebrate today, as their distinctive drawl was voted the least attractive across the board.
* Study conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s largest extramarital dating site.

As the Irish prepare to paint the town green in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, they can now add “sexiest accent in the UK” to their list of reasons to toast.

In a revealing new poll conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s largest extramarital dating site, the Irish accent has been crowned the nation’s most irresistible. And let’s be honest, who can resist the lilt of an Irish brogue?

In the battle for the UK’s sexiest male accent, Irish men claimed the top spot with a resounding 32% of women’s votes – leaving other contenders in their wake. The ever-charismatic Cockney accent followed closely behind, garnering 26%, while the rugged Scottish brogue secured third place with 17%.

Further down the list, the Welsh accent charmed 8% of voters, while Geordies rounded up 6%. But it’s the West Country folk who’ll be feeling the sting of rejection, with their distinctive drawl taking the unfortunate title of least attractive accent – scoring a mere 1%.

But it’s not just Irish men who are winning hearts – the women are equally captivating. When men were asked to vote for the UK’s sexiest female accent, Irish topped the charts again, with 29% of the vote. The melodic Scottish tones claimed second place with 25%, and the soft, sweet Welsh accent came in third with 19%.

Sadly, the West Country accent once again found itself at the bottom, tied with the Brummie accent, both scraping just 1% of the votes. 

Jessica Leoni, sex and relationships expert at IllicitEncounters.com who conducted the poll, wasn’t surprised by the results and explained why the Irish voice has such undeniable appeal:

“The Irish accent’s popularity makes perfect sense – it’s musical, warm, and playful, while still managing to sound incredibly seductive. It’s the kind of voice that can make you feel instantly at ease, yet also leave you completely captivated. 

On the other hand, accents like the West Country’s, while full of character, just don’t seem to carry that same romantic allure. They have their own kind of charm, but it seems they’re more likely to remind people of cosy countryside life than fiery passion.”

Elon Musk crowned world’s “sexiest entrepreneur” by UK women

* Tesla and X owner Elon Musk tops the poll, beating Dragon’s Den star Steven Bartlett and Snapchat’s Evan Spiegel.

* Other notable names in the top 10 include Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, BrewDog CEO James Watt and, controversially, US President Donald Trump who landed in 9th place.

* 2,000 women ranked 50 global entrepreneurs on their “sexiness,” with tech titans and self-made billionaires dominating the top 10.

* Poll conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s largest extramarital dating site.

Elon Musk has controversially been crowned the world’s sexiest entrepreneur by UK women.

The Tesla boss and owner of X topped a poll conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading affairs site, beating off stiff competition from the likes of Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel and Diary of a CEO star Steven Bartlett.

Famed for his unpredictable personality and his increasingly polarising role in American politics, Musk’s allure clearly remains undiminished when it comes to his sex appeal as he topped the poll scoring an impressive 9 out of 10.

The UK’s very own Steven Bartlett claimed second place scoring 8.5 out of 10, proving his appearances on Dragon’s Den and podcasting charm have the ladies swooning, while Snapchat’s Evan Spiegel, whose clean-cut good looks and billionaire lifestyle have long made him a heartthrob landed him in third place.

The poll from IllicitEncounters.com involved 2,000 of its female members, who were asked to rank 50 of the world’s most famous and influential business figures from most to least sexy, scoring them between 1 and 10 based on their “sexiness.”

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos took fourth place, while BrewDog CEO James Watt, who married TV personality Georgia Toffolo in a secret Scottish wedding on the weekend, rounds off the top five.

The top 10 also saw social media giants and tech titans dominate, with LinkedIn’s Jeff Weiner in sixth, Monzo co-founder Tom Blomfield in seventh, and Farfetch founder José Neves placing eighth. 

In a somewhat controversial result, Elon Musk’s “boss”, US President and business mogul Donald Trump secured ninth place, while Dragon’s Den star Peter Jones took the final spot in the top 10.

The list of 50 names featured a mix of high-profile entrepreneurs and business leaders from various industries, broken down into categories across tech, retail, media, and investment.

British entrepreneurs made a strong showing throughout the rankings, with Gymshark founder Ben Francis taking 12th place, Calm co-founder Michael Acton Smith coming in 15th place and Virgin’s Richard Branson placing 18th. Alan Sugar’s appeal, on the other hand, appears to be waning despite his non-nonsense attitude on ‘The Apprentice’, coming in last.

Other notable tech billionaires rated by UK women included Apple’s Tim Cook who landed in 28th place, while Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg was further down the list coming just 39th. 

Jessica Leoni, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com, commented on the results saying, “Elon Musk’s victory has come as quite a surprise considering how much of a controversial figure he’s become lately, but the sheer level of his appeal shows just how much women are drawn to powerful, unpredictable men with money. His mix of intellect, wealth, and risk-taking clearly makes him irresistible. Add in his penchant for drama and his relentless ambition, and you’ve got the ultimate bad boy billionaire.

It’s also great to see UK entrepreneurs like Steven Bartlett and Peter Jones flying the flag in the top 10 – proving British brains, charm, and business savvy are a very sexy combination.

With such a diverse mix of visionaries, mavericks, and moguls, it’s clear that success is the ultimate aphrodisiac.”

World’s Sexiest Entrepreneurs: Top 10

UK’s Sexiest Politicians For 2024 Revealed

* Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman are officially the UK’s sexiest politicians.

* With 23% of the female vote and 21% of the male vote, Nigel Farage and Suellla Braverman top the list.

* The Tories beat Labour as the sexiest overall party.

* The results come from a survey of members on IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people.

With the general election just weeks away, IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, has asked its members to take part in a poll to find out which politician they find sexiest.

In a surprise twist, the ever-controversial Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, has clinched the top spot, capturing 23% of the female vote. 

Not far behind, rugged and ready Conservative Johnny Mercer snagged second place (18%), with his military background clearing striking a chord with the ladies.

Hot on his heels is Labour leader Keir Starmer, who pulled in 16% of the vote, followed oddly, by Jacob Rees-Mogg (12%) whose old-school charm is seemingly setting hearts aflutter.

Conservative Ben Everett, who came under fire for posting ‘thirst trap’ photos on Instagram in November last year made the top 5 with 9% of the vote.

Sadly for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, his star seems to have dimmed since 2020, when he topped the poll, this year gaining just 3% of the vote.

For men, the sexiest female politician is, rather controversially, Conservative Suella Braverman (21%).

Close on her heels is Labour’s Rosena Allin-Khan with 19%. Dr. Allin-Khan’s blend of compassion, intelligence, and striking looks clearly makes her a standout politician.

Conservative Esther McVey and former GB News presenter rounded off the top 3 with 15% of the vote.

Overall, the Tories came out on top taking 51% of the total vote share across both male and female categories, making them the sexiest party, compared to a disappointing 28.5% for Labour.

Jessica Leoni, sex and relationships expert at IllicitEncounters.com said, “The latest poll on the UK’s sexiest people in politics has thrown a bit of a curveball with Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman crowned the reigning hotties.

When it comes to what makes politicians sexy, it’s not just about looks – it’s about swagger, confidence, and a dash of power that gets the heart racing. Nigel Farage, with his unapologetic, cheeky grin and devil-may-care attitude, seems to channel that bad boy charm women can’t resist – and his appearance on ‘I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’ last year clearly worked wonders for his image.

Meanwhile, Suella Braverman’s poised, no-nonsense demeanour exudes a fierce passion and authority that’s seemingly undeniably attractive for a lot of men.

Politics isn’t just about policies – it’s also a stage where charisma shines, and let’s face it, a little bit of controversy adds a spark of sexual intrigue too. 

Our poll will be running for our members right until election day, and I have no doubt we’ll see these politicians shuffling up and down this list based on their actions over the next couple of weeks!”​

Top of the Crops – Farmers Declared Sexiest Male Profession

* Farmers have been voted the sexiest profession in annual survey

* Doctors and chefs round off the top 3, followed by firemen and footballers

* Politicians rank last with just 1% of women finding them sexy

* Results come from a study conducted by IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people

IllicitEncounters.com, the UK’s leading dating website for married people, surveyed 2000 women to discover which male profession is the sexiest in 2023. 

Sex and relationships expert for IllicitEncounters.com, Jessica Leoni has compiled and commented on the results below:

Farmers are top of the crops with 21% of the vote in a survey of the sexiest professions.

It turns out those hard-working, strong-armed farmers are what women want. With the likes of Jeremy Clarkson and Blur bassist Alex James getting involved and reaping the rewards of farming, it’s no surprise ladies can’t resist. Hunter boots and Barbour jackets are in, Savile Row suits and leather brogues are out.

Doctor, Doctor! Unsurprisingly, it’s medics who get women’s pulses racing, coming close second with 16% of the vote. Doctors are officially hot, so if you’re dating one make sure you’ve got some paracetamol to hand and keep that temperature down.

No room left for seconds here, chefs are in respectable third place with 14% of the vote. They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, and it seems the same goes for women.

It’s getting hot in here! Firemen have been voted 4th sexiest profession (12%). It seems the idea of being scooped up into those muscly arms and away from danger is what turns women on.

Setting a good example with a place in the top 5 of the sexiest professions, teachers are awarded with 10% of the vote. With a show of hands, who could resist?!

This one’s put a spanner in the works. Plumbers come in 5th place (8%).

Not making a big impression are influencers, who are 6th overall sexiest profession with 5% of the vote.

Hairdressers didn’t make the cut, with just 4% of the vote and taking 7th place.

Not so sexy, bankers don’t have the appeal they used to with a measly 3% of the vote in 8th place. With the cost of living crisis, inflation and interest rates on the up, it’s no surprise ladies have had enough of all things finance.

Lagging behind in 10th place with just 1% of the vote, politicians won’t be able to talk their way out of this one. All words, no action – can we blame women for wanting more?

Times have changed. Women aren’t as dazzled by fancy suits and power anymore. Physical strength, a nurturing nature and intelligence are now the traits to look out for in an ideal partner.
