Germans Are World's Worst Lovers, Americans Are 5th Worst: Poll

A poll of 15,000 women that rated the world's best and worst lovers found that German men topped the worst list because they were deemed "too smelly," the Telegraph reported.

The Germans were followed closely by the English, who were considered "too lazy," while the Swedes, who came in third, were accused of being "too quick to finish."

On the other end of the spectrum, Latin countries topped the "best lover" list, with Spain at number one, followed by Brazil, Italy and France, reported the Daily Mail.

The poll was carried out by www.OnePoll.com and asked women from 20 countries to rate men from different countries based on their ability in bed. The women also had to provide an explanation for their answers, the Telegraph reported.

The Dutch were considered too rough, while Americans made it into the Top 5 on the worst lovers list because they were too dominating in bed, Fox News reported.

The other countries that also did badly are: Greece (soppy), Scotland (too loud), Turkey (too sweaty), Wales (too selfish) and Russia (too hairy), the Hindustan Times reported.

A spokesperson for www.OnePoll.com added: ''These results are an eye-opener for thousands of men around the world and female travellers might judge potential new lovers by looking at these results.''

That's interesting. Ask women to make sweeping generalizations about sexual performance based on nationality. I'm guessing that generalizing by race was too far out-of-bounds...

Maybe it's really testing the intelligence of the person being polled.

Let me know when they ask Guys about the worst female lovers. Just like us Men, Women can wreak, be lazy and absolutely dead in bed.

Hmm. Very interesting that 4 out of the top 5 countries are definitively Catholic. Perhaps they're more charitable (wink, wink) in the whole "what would Jesus do?" sense of things.

what a ridiculously labeled poll. it appears it wasnt the entire world, just just countries with a significant white population. i bet they didnt even poll of south africa, just the white men.
these kinds of things need to better labeled. they shouldnt say "world" when they really dont mean
"world"

Nothing more accurate than to split humans along national borders. All Germans are exactly the same, all Spanish men are exactly the same. Exactly the same, with zero difference. ALL Germans are lousy smelly lovers, ALL Spanish men are wonderful in bed.

Oh lawd. What's next? Some good ol' gender divisiveness?

Canada makes the top ten!!!!

Don't get too excited. It probably means that Canadian men hop into bed with every "globetrotting woman", like the Spanish certainly do, but like only worst Germans do.

And from this I learned that I should cultivate a German accent, so that I can be a pleasant surprise...rising above expectations, as it were.

This poll obviously has more to do with cliche than reality...as if the women had sex with men from all these countries.

You didn't see the IHOP (International House of Prostitutes) at La Guardia?

As if the study made any effort to figure out which part of each population is ready and willing to hop into bed with some "globetrotting women". The Spanish probably do it all the time, while decent Germans do not, and that's the only valid result.

I can understand why the Swedes are too quick to finish. If I lived in as cold a country as they do and my A** was hanging out to freeze, I'd want to hurry too.

Not one country of African origin?

Friend, I think South Africa is in Africa; and there are plenty of Africans in France, Brazil, Canada and the US.

Why don't you fight for Asians? There are 4 times as many people? Obviously this is a poll of the wider western world.
