The Great Australian Sex Census reveals the sex habits of Australians.

The Great Australian Sex Census, conducted by dating site redhotpie.com.au, surveyed 17,000 Aussies about their bedroom behaviours and unveiled some surprising statistics.

So how did your industry fare?

Well, things look great for tradies, lawyers, real estate agents and transport workers. Not so much for those in finance, IT or telecommunications.

Aussies working in the legal industry are most satisfied their sex lives (54.5 per cent). But almost half of those in IT and telecommunications (44 per cent) said they were unsatisfied in the bedroom.

Real estate agents lived up to their sleazy reputations, with 44.7 per cent sleeping with more than 21 people in their lifetime.

Dating an accountant? You might want to rethink that.

Those working in finance had the highest percentage of responses claiming to last just minutes in bed, and were half as likely as construction workers to sleep with someone on a first date.

Tradies proved to be a cheeky bunch — they’re most likely to lie about their age in order get some nookie (with almost half admitting to doing so) and most likely to have a threesome.

We never pictured truck drivers as a kinky lot, but over half of the transport and logistic workers surveyed have experimented with food in the bedroom, and also love talking dirty while doing the naughty.

The Sex Census also revealed most of usprefer to have sex in a bed (51.9%), whileapartment balconies (7.1 per cent) are the second most popular, followed by the shower (6.6 per cent), and on the beach (5.8 per cent).

About a third of us are getting down several times a week (32.5 per cent), while a lucky 2.3 per cent manage to squeeze in a romp multiple times daily.

Out of the 17,000 Aussies surveyed, 75 per cent of those surveyed identified as heterosexual, 4.9 per cent as homosexual and 19.3 per cent identifying as bisexual or bicurious.
