| A third of Brits surveyed wouldn't admit to having an STI |
OVER three quarters of Brits have admitted they wouldn't confess to having a sexual transmitted disease, a new survey has revealed.
Seventy six per cent of 18-45-year-olds surveyed in by research company MedExpress revealed they wouldn’t confess to having an STI.
The research - which involved talking to 2,521 British adults - is shocking, to say the least.
And taking those figures into account, eight per cent said they wouldn’t bother using a condom even if they did know they were carrying an STI.
This figure becomes even more worrying when we take a look back at last year's figures. In 2014, there was a whopping 440,000 diagnosis of STIs in England alone.

The most common of these being chlamydia, with 206,774 diagnoses made in 2014.
But that wasn't the only shocking stat to come out of the survey. Respondents were asked if they were embarrassed by the number of sexual partners they'd had.
Just under half (47 per cent) admitted they were mortified - which lead to a discussion about the 'perfect' number of sexual partners for both men and woman.
The numbers were interesting, and telling when it comes to the number of sexual partners men think is appropriate.

The ’perfect’ number of sexual partners a man can have, from a female’s perspective, is 11. And the other way around?
Well, the magic number from a male’s perspective is 32. Let that soak in when you hear men think women should've slept with up to… five people.
That's a difference of 27 sexual encounters between men and women, in the men surveyed's opinion.
The ‘perfect’ female number from a female’s perspective was 10.
With all these sexually transmitted diseases floating around, we couldn't blame a person for never having sex again.
