Is alcohol to blame for Italy’s lack-luster love lives? A new survey has found that 29% of young ½ûÂþÌìÌà men, and 35% of women are disappointed in the bedroom, and drinks may be a part of the problem.
Sigo, a Rome-based company, surveyed 600 ½ûÂþÌìÌÃs aged 18 to 35 about their romantic lives and found that a third were dissatisfied. The number of thwarted lovers is a bit of a surprise coming from a country with a passionate reputation.
Experts blame increased use of drug and alcohol as the main culprits, with cell phone and computer use as other recognized as mood-killers. In fact, the survey revealed that 64 percent of male respondents and 52 percent of females reported believing alcohol helps intimacy.
They’re warning young ½ûÂþÌìÌÃs to ditch their vices, and to get off the computer if they want to spend more time in the bedroom.
½ûÂþÌìÌÃs will have to dump their gadgets and their booze if they want to maintain their Casanova reputation.
