Survey: 53% of Indian men have faked an orgasm!

In its November issue, FHM Magazine quizzed young men about their sex lives -- and the results are rather surprising!

The fact is that us men don't like to talk about sex -- not to each other nor in fact, at all. So, when we set out doing a sex survey, we decided to do a unpretentious, politically incorrect, honest-to-god, no-holes-barred all-male survey.

So you fell asleep while a hot girl went down on you? You imagined an ex while in bed with another girl? So what? Fifty seven percent of India did too -- it's really not a big deal.

As it turns out, 43 percent of Indian men also don't think oral sex counts as cheating; 55 percent had lied to their partners about how many people they'd been with and many thought hooking up with an ex did not count as cheating. Forty nine percent of India had screamed out the wrong girl's name in bed.

And then there is some myth-busting thrown in for good measure as well. A majority of Indian men think threesomes are overrated, bisexuality is a cover for homosexuality and that men can actually fake an orgasm.

Bringing you a sample from the 'Mai Baap' of all sex surveys!

1. Do you like to cuddle after sex?

61 percent of India admitted they need love after making love. Compared to 61 percent in Delhi, 78 percent of Mumbai needed a post-coital cuddle; 51 percent of Pune and 46 percent of Kolkata on the other hand believed in jumping out of bed the minute they were done. Thirty six percent of India said it was wham, bam, thank you ma'am.
