If you’re a regular VL reader you’ll know that we cite Spain’s 20 Minutos newspaper a lot. I think it’s funny how they tend to have the weirdest stories, yet position them as “hard news”. Today is no exception. The headline:

International Sex Study: Spaniards — the longest-lasting and most imaginative, but we do it less frequently.

Hee. Can you tell this is a newspaper they hand out for free at subway stations?

According to the “international study” (which is actually just a survey done by Men’s Health magazine — a PR tactic as it were — in which the data is based on respondents’ answers), Spaniards and Mexicans rank high in sexual prowess. Some highlights:

According to the study, we Spaniards are outstanding at prolonging the length of the sexual act, since our average is 22.3 minutes, the third best after Mexicans and the Dutch who last 22.5 minutes.

We are also third in the world in the variety of positions we put into practice in lovemaking, with 4.63, beaten only by the Hungarians, who confess that they change positions 8,27 times, and by Argentines, who try 5.76 positions.

Again, if you ask someone these questions, what are they going to say? I think all this shows is that it’s clear that Spain had a hand in the creation of the Mexican “macho”.
