When in Europe do as the Europeans do: Get drunk and have sex
Fitting in with the local culture is often the most difficult of tasks when traveling. But if you're a young adult headed to Europe this summer, acting like a European might only entail living up to frat party standards. According to a study published in BMC Public Health, young adults in Europe deliberately booze it up to increase their chances of scoring.According to the BBC, the study was done with 1,341 people from 9 different cities across Europe. A third of the men, and 23 % of the women -- who were all between the ages of 16 and 35 -- said they drank to improve their chances of having sex. The researchers concluded that the fun-loving youngsters were "strategically" binge drinking or taking drugs to improve their sex lives.
All jokes aside, drinking and sexing is a health concern; especially since the rate of unprotected sex goes up. However, now that we know what the European strategy is, it looks like we no longer need a "How to Score a European Fling" post.
