His fling could be getting the spoils this Christmas
A recent survey has revealed that this festive season, it's the mistress who gets the gift with a happy ending.
As the holidays approach, a survey from the world’s premier online affair service, AshleyMadison.com, reveals there will be little festive cheer for wives, as cheating husbands spoil their mistresses but scrimp on their spouses.
The survey, which questioned 2,135 actively-cheating husbands from across SA, revealed that adulterous males are 4 times more likely to buy their mistress a sex toy as opposed to their wife.
The results revealed husbands buy their wives practical gifts, gifts they “need” – those things they’ve been wanting all year but may not have been in the budget. On the other hand they spoil their mistresses with lavish gifts such as jewelry, lingerie, perfume and sex toys!
Dr. Eve, well-known South African sexologist who is currently writing a book on Cyber Infidelitycomments, “My research shows that in both South African men and women, across all ages, sex toys are used more with online lovers than with In Real Life partners. Sex toys are associated with sexier sex and hence easier to negotiate in situations where sex is the goal than with one’s significant other. 27.56% of SA men and 30.2% of SA women use sex toys with their online lovers when they meet up, but not with their spouses.”
Sneaky men also opt to pay for their mistresses’ gifts in cash to avoid an incriminating paper trail, and some admitted that they weren’t looking forward to the festive period with their spouse and family, claiming they would also be seeing their mistress for clandestine romance, or even embarking on a no-string attached holiday fling to pass the time.
“Our male members are clearly looking to get on the Naughty and Nice list this Christmas,” says Noel Biderman, founder and CEO, AshleyMadison.com. “Christmas is stressful at the best of times, but our members have found a way to balance their home life with their search for intimacy, romance or just a little Christmas spice.”
