HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Lingerie manufacturer Shirley of Hollywood has announced the results of its National Valentine's Survey, which was administered by TheBachelorGuy.com.
More than 300 men and women who frequent TheBachelorGuy.com responded, according to Eric Rogell, The Bachelor Guy or "BG" as some like to refer to him.
"I took two things away from the survey," he told AVN Novelty Business. "Women love lingerie and fantasy, and they are very willing to indulge ours by wearing what we buy for them. Secondly, and most importantly, never underestimate the power of accessories: gloves, hats, stockings, riding crops. Women love lingerie, but adding on the accessories takes it to the next level!"
Among the findings were that 60 percent of women like to give their man a sexy surprise by wearing new lingerie, and 72 percent of men said this "is just fine." According to 84 percent of men, lingerie is a huge turn-on; of the ladies who participated in the survey, 70 percent agreed.
The survey found that black is the top color choice for both men (46 percent) and women (51 percent), followed by red, which drew votes from 28 percent of the men and 24 percent of the women.
The No. 1 lingerie gift was a two-piece, form-fitting intimate such as a bustier and corset paired with garters, which drew votes from 45 percent of men and women. Additionally, 56 percent of men and 36 percent of women chose satin as the sexiest lingerie material.
What might be surprising is that 90 percent of the men who participated in the survey would like to receive lingerie as a Valentine's Day gift.
