Men's "Ideal Day" Revealed in New Study

A new survey may reveal the reason why men are so sex obsessed. Researchers found that men would have sex for more than four hours and work for only three and a half hours during their "ideal day".

The survey shows that the average men would spend four hours and 19 minutes having sex, three hours and 36 minutes working and three hours and 22 minutes for meeting friends and spending time with family.

Men would also spend two hours and 38 minutes eating and drinking and only 29 minutes grooming. The study also found that men would then spend the remaining time of their ideal day sleeping.

Researchers also found that 51 percent of men under 34 say they worry that they are missing out on life experience if they are not busy doing something each minute of the day.

The findings revealed that one in four men said they are always trying to find new ways to fit more experiences in their busy lives, and 70 percent of male respondents said they are willing to cut back on the number of friends they have if it gave them more time to do different activities.

The survey also revealed that a fifth of men try to learn a new language or skill during their daily communes and 64 percent believe that modern technology has allowed them to do more in a day.

"The demands of modern society mean that young men are under pressure to fit more and more into their lives," said Paul O'Connor, brand manager for Unilever Compressed deodorants, who commissioned the study, according to the Daily Mail.

"They are always looking for advances in products and technology to allow them to do this," he added.
