COLD weather makes Scots desire sex more – and that’s snow joke.

More than half of women and 62 per cent of men said they felt hornier when the temperatures plunge.

Three-quarters of couples said they spent more time in bed together when the weather is freezing – making intimate times more likely.

And eight out of ten couples like to cuddle up to keep warm when they are chilly – again boosting the chances of sex.

Snow is an aphrodisiac to a third of couples too – making them feel romantic and closer to their partner.

While two thirds go outside to play together when it snows – making snowmen and snowballs – enhancing togetherness.

The results are from a new survey of 2,000 people by IllicitEncounters.com, Scotland’s leading affairs site.

The findings appeared to be confirmed by scientific fact.

More babies are conceived in December in Scotland than any other month – with births peaking nine months later in September.

Scientific studies show that men’s testosterone
levels – the hormone regulating the male sex drive – peak in the winter months.

Heat is bad for sperm – they thrive when the testicles are kept cooler, and men desire sex more as a result when the temperature drops.

It’s why men never want to have sex after a hot bath.

Jessica Leoni, sex and relationship expert with IllicitEncounters.com, said: “It is very much a case of season’s cheating at this time of year in Scotland because most of us desire sex more when the weather is cold and affairs rocket, too.

“Heat in the summer can make us feel lethargic and sleepy whereas the cold brings us close together in the evenings in front of the TV and at bedtime when we cuddle up.

“Making love is the most natural way in the world to stay warm in this bitter weather.”
