Half of Brit women won't go nude during sex

London(ANI): Almost half of Brit women prefer keeping their clothes on during sex, revealed a survey.

The findings showed that some 48 per cent of females prefer not to bare it all in bed, leaving on at least one garment.

And the reason behind such protection of modesty- for 54 per cent of them - is to improve body confidence.

However, not all men approve of this-when asked if they preferred a partner to retain an item of clothing, only 36 per cent of blokes said "yes".

And when it came to their garment of choice, negligees came out on top.

But the survey revealed most women would rather go for a bra.

The results showed 61 per cent of women claimed to prefer sex with the lights off, compared with just 37 per cent of men.

"This research has really unveiled how large a part clothes play when it comes to female body confidence," the Sun quoted Andy Barr, marketing director at MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk, as saying.

"The fact that such a large proportion of women claim to feel sexier with an item kept on suggests that, while body confidence might be low, clothes can really improve a woman's self-image," he added.
