Scientists have found out how different countries treat sex outside of marriage and even made a map
Sex outside of marriage, which in the old way can be called adultery, refers to serious Old Testament sins. But the attitude towards it in different countries may differ significantly. Scientists from the Pew Research Center in Washington studied people's views on extramarital sex in different parts of the world and, having systematized the information, made a map.
The "map of adultery" published by experts from the USA shows in different colors countries where free love is harshly condemned or even punished, where it is in the order of things and ... where it is even impossible to talk about it. Yes, you understood correctly — in some Arab countries, Americans were even afraid to appear with their survey, so they are marked in gray as zones about which there is no information.
The Muslim countries Turkey, Egypt, Jordan and Indonesia were the most intolerant of sex outside of marriage. It turns out that Turkish machos from Antalya hotels with deep condemnation accost women who have come to rest without husbands. Unexpectedly, the Indonesian island of Bali, packed with supporters of sexual liberation, turned out to be chaste.
France, Germany and Spain turned out to be the most dissolute, and scientifically speaking, the most respectful of someone else's right to privacy. It turns out that these are the best places to have an easy romance without consequences and not to hide much at the same time. Canada, Australia and Chile are slightly inferior to the leaders in assessing free relations.
As for Russia, it, quite unexpectedly, found itself in the same group with the United States and ... Brazil. Yes, that's right — in the country of beaches, curly mulattoes and samba, sex outside of marriage is treated the same as in our native penates. Well, this could still be expected from Americans, because a significant part of them are descendants of English Puritans.
Here is the very map that is worth saving for those who travel the world in search of amorous adventures. It can be supplemented with another study that helped to map the growth of girls in different countries — after all, someone likes tall, and someone, on the contrary, miniature ladies.
