Earlier this year we asked you to participate in our annual COSMOPOLITAN Online Sex Survey. Once again we received great feedback from you, and how COSMO girls measure up. Here we reveal the raunchy results... (Click on the tabs below to view the full results.)
Congratulations to Ethel Schoeman who has won the Lola Montez hamper.
POLITICALLY CORRECT
Who would you like to sleep with? (You may choose more than one option)
a) Only 17% would bed a local celebrity
b) 53% have set their sights on an international celebrity
c) 3% are intrigued by a politician
d) 20% simply want the boy/girl next door
e) And 7% would do anyone other than their current partner
When a local politician is caught in a sex scandal, what's your first thought?
a) 59% immediately believe he/she is guilty
b) 38% say the politician is innocent until proven guilty
c) 3% have faith by saying he/she did not have sexual relations with that person
Has President Jacob Zuma's bedroom scandals had any effect on your sex life?
a) Only 2% say the scandals have had some effect on your sex life
b) 98% have not let it affect you
If 'Yes', explain
The president's actions have some COSMO girls questioning why it's ok for men to act a certain way in the bedroom but it's frowned upon for women to do the same. Others have learned how important safe sex is and now never leave their condoms at home, while others have been moved to get their facts about sexually transmitted infections straight before speaking out in public and have learned how dangerously misleading the president's actions are. But some say it's only affected them in that it's embarrassed the country on an international level. A few COSMO girls were also shocked that a 60-year-old man was getting more action than them.
Do you think these incidents will have any effect on the population's views of safe sex?
a) 66% believe it will
b) But 34% say it won't
If 'Yes', explain
Some of the effects COSMO girls think the president's scandals will have on the population include him setting a bad example by encouraging the youth to not use protection, teaching them that infidelity is ok, if a president can dodge responsibility so can they, and a shower washes away all STIs – 'shower power'.
However, others believe the fallout and bad publicity from his actions might actually teach the population that safe sex is a necessity.
Do you think polygamy is justified?
a) Only 5% agree
b) 57% disagree
c) While 38% believe it it's your religion/culture who are they to judge
