Canadian men are average lovers: poll


By THANE BURNETT, SUN MEDIA


TORONTO -- When it comes to making love, Canuck men are stuck in the middle.

/snip/

But they reached that ranking by the skin of their, well, teeth.

/snip/

Guys from England were found to be too lazy in bed, Swedish men were too quick, in Holland they’re too dominating, Americans are uncomfortably rough, Greek guys are annoyingly lovey-dovey and in Russia, women complained, their men are too hairy.

Scottish men were found to be loud, in Wales the guys are said to be selfish and in Turkey, the respondents complained about issues with being sweaty.

Of the men rated as good lovers, as well as the top-dog Spaniards, Brazilians, Italians, the French, the Irish, South Africans, Australians, New Zealanders and the Danish all were rated as being better in bed than Canuck males.

3. They're being modest
There was the "good" list and the "not so good" list. The Canadians were in the "good" list....

I don't think that's "average" at all!

4. About those "hairy" Russians--what the hell does that have to do with
technique? I think the Russian women misunderstood the thrust (sorry!) of the question.

As for Irish guys, and Aussies, yeah, they're great!

5. Well, I'm interested in these results! I can tell my granddaughters when they are older
the foreign men who are better lovers. You bet.

I think it's important that we know these things. We women NEED good lovers and this is great information for us. It tells us who to pare from our list and who to put at the top. I think it is interesting, don't you?

9. I think it's interesting that the "Latin lover" stereotype proves true (French, Italians,
Spaniards, Brazilians).

14. Well, I don't have special knowledge (and I think I wish I did!), but
I don't know if I would actively support my granddaughters seeking Latin Lovers.

They seem pretty nice tho....

21. Of Course, If This Had Been A Poll Asking MEN To Rate THEIR Partners..
..it would have been universally denounced as a sexist, chauvinistic, misanthropic insult to women everywhere.....

23. Amen..Brother DUer..The Women on this forum would be having a Fit...
... Denouncing men as "only Animals and not truly caring of the Cerebral part of love-making"

The thing these Women forget is "the right" Woman can make a mediocre Lover turn into a Sensational Being.

My European Friends tell men most American Women are either "Soul-less" or Selfish in bed.

32. No Jab at Women...My last line was meant to point out that .....
...inconsistances and misunderstandings abound when people start assuming and blaming others for their supposed faults.

(My Friends in Europe would never say such a stupid thing)

Maybe I should have used the sarcasm thing...

maybe ....a sarcasm thing might not have made it quite the statement

i get your guys point though. wouldnt it have been much nicer if women had jumped on the thread and yelled bullshit. you guys are right on.

i read the article and backed out of the thread thinking it was stupid.

Edited on Sat Oct-03-09 09:30 PM by lumberjack_jeff
Because we all know that men don't get objectified.

Reminds me of an old joke:
She: Hah! Who are you going to please with that tiny thing?
He: Me.

The French and the Aussies certainly seem to live up to their rep, and I've heard numerous times that Irish guys are next to heaven.

But I looooves me my death metal bass playin', tall, beautiful, sensitive, kinky 'n sexy, brilliant and funny, great in the sack American boy!!! :)

41. :) Of course you do.
Note that I use the class-terms boy/girl/man/woman somewhat idiosyncratically:

boy/girl = male/female around my age or younger, man/woman = male/female significantly older than me.

44. May I ask...
are you in your 20s or 30s? I ask because I find it bizarre when a couple of 30-something female friends refer to men they are dating, similar in age, as "the boy." Is there some sort of pop culture reference that I'm not getting? (I'm in my 40s...) The only thing I can think of is that Notting Hill flick where Julia Roberts says to Hugh Grant, "I'm just a girl, standing before a boy..."

Edited on Sun Oct-04-09 01:01 AM by BlooInBloo
of that particular generational divide. Every friend I have, both boy and girl, without exception, talks in terms of boys/girls. (Presumably they haven't formulated my idiosyncratic definition, but there doesn't seem to be much disagreement on usage, if any.)

EDIT: Likely in my specific case, there's a bit of Peter Pan syndrome going on. But that's surely the least of my many, many flaws.

51. A poll conducted by a marketing firm
Edited on Sun Oct-04-09 01:33 AM by daleo
No actual results, no methodology - just a way for some polling outfit to get cheap some publicity. They could have made up the results for all anyone knows.

The original source is the Telegraph, the U.K.'s silliest right-wing paper as far as I can tell. It was then picked up by the Sun, one of Canada's silliest right wing newspapers.
