Lads have their work cut out after a survey exposed that one in ten women faked reaching the climax almost every single time they had sexual relationship with their mates.

According to the poll led by the soft drink firm Stimul8, around 48% British women admitted that they misinformed their partners into believing they had reached an orgasm.

About 7% of the 3000 women questioned stated that they terminate their relationship over their disgruntled sex life, 16% complained about a lack of arousal, whereas 11% said their mate had an orgasm ahead of time.

But many dodged facing up the problem with their mates, with over a quarter admitting they were also humiliated or couldn't be bothered to talk about the issue, researchers discovered.

A spokesman for Stimul8 said, "It appears men in the UK have their work cut out if one in five women are saying they are extremely unhappy with their sex life."

"But it''s not all down to the blokes as women need to communicate a bit more with their partner to let them know what it is they really want. Although it may be down to tiredness or stress, if a guy isn''t doing it right, he''s not going to know unless he is told," the spokesman added. (With Input from Agencies)
