Survey Reveals Brits' Top Turn-Ons

A new survey has revealed what is most likely to get both men and women in the mood for passion.

More than 2,000 Britons were involved in the study, which was carried out by entertainment brand Mecca, and claimed that – for women – losing weight, winning money and fresh bed sheets are the biggest turn-ons, while for men, it is after they come home following a night out with the lads.

Some 60% of women admitted that they would be turned on by winning a sum of money, while 52% of men said they would happily let their other half go and play bingo if it meant they came home "in the mood".

Elsewhere on the women's list was a new hairdo, a night out with the girls, or the works Christmas party. For men, their reasons were slightly more bizarre, with cleaning the house, driving a sports car and their sports team winning making the top 10.

Psychologist Tracey Cox, a sex, body language and relationships expert, is quoted in the Daily Mail as saying: "Winning is a common theme for both sexes when it comes to driving sexual desire.

"Whether it be a sports team win or a bingo win, they both provide personal gain which induces happiness.

"Wanting to win is a basic human instinct - it's what kept our species alive.

"From a more modern day perspective, an individual who competes and wins, achieves a higher social status, generally has more money, attracts more mates and enjoys a higher social ranking."

Mark Jones of Mecca said: "Winning at bingo puts you in a good mood and it's interesting to hear the science behind your bingo numbers coming up and the feelings it triggers.

"We have thousands of visitors each week, mostly females who make it their mission to enjoy an evening of entertainment.

"If their winning numbers come up, it's nice to know their good mood continues after they've stopped playing."
