Greek lovers among the top three best in the world

As reported by the Daily Mail, the survey was conducted on a sample of 2,000 people by the dating app Wisp, which asked participants to name the nationality of the best lover they’ve ever had. Italians took first place, impressing 21% of respondents with their hidden talents. Spaniards followed in second with 15%, while Greeks proudly claimed third place with a striking 14%.

Further down the ranking were the charismatic Brazilians (11%), romantic French (9%), Portuguese (8%), Swedes (6%), and Australians (5%).

Unfortunately for the British and German lovers, they landed in the last two positions of the list, scoring just 4% and 3% respectively.

“It’s the gaze, the confidence, the way they talk…”

Sylvia Linzalone, a spokesperson for Wisp, commented on the results in the British newspaper, explaining that the Mediterranean aura plays a defining role: “It’s the gaze, the confidence, the way they speak,” she said of Mediterranean men — Greeks included.

She humorously added that perhaps the British need a touch of Mediterranean spark: “We love tea and restrained behavior, and that often translates to things being lukewarm in the bedroom. In Italy, even a stop at the bakery for bread can turn into a romantic moment,” she quipped.

The research also revealed that for one in three participants, their most unforgettable romantic experience happened while on vacation — with many admitting to having had a summer fling they’ll never forget. One respondent even recalled that the most passionate night of her life took place one summer in Naples.
