Remember those ugly Christmas jumpers your Gran used to knit for you when you were younger? Well they aren’t so ugly anymore according to a poll conducted by Trojan condoms. They claim that about 6% of people polled in the States claimed they got laid at their office Christmas party despite wearing the ugliest Christmas jumpers man or woman could conceive.
On the face of things this sounds like a small number, but when you consider the number of office parties that happen over Christmas, that’s quite a lot of sex for the ugly jumper brigade.
Will a Christmas jumper be a sure-fire way into someone’s pants?
The Telegraph, and hundreds of other media outlets have been writing and blogging a lot recently on the sudden surge of interest in bad Christmas jumpers. Rather then being something to be embarrassed about, more and more people are taking to the streets decked out in some knitted horror that ordinarily would make someone’s virginity grow back.
Hipsters are now in on the trend as well and you can’t walk five feet around a busy shopping centre or high street without bumping into someone sporting a Reindeer or a Christmas Tree pattern on their chest.
The jury’s out on who looks better in them; men or women (I’d say women), but one thing is for sure; these jumpers are back in a big way!
Will they help you have sex?
In all honesty and despite the poll conducted by Trojan, the main thing that will help you have sex, as always is you. If you’ve got the confidence to dress like Colin Firth from Bridget Jones and approach a potential fuck buddy with the most hideous seasonal jumper imaginable, then you’ve got the confidence to take her to bed.
From the other side of the coin, women have been wearing woollen jumpers around Christmas for years, but this year they really seem to have taken it to another level with Geordie Shore’s Charlotte Crosby wearing nothing but a Christmas jumper for a photo shoot for Miss Selfridge. More and more women will be noticing the example set by celebs and more and more are likely to adopt the ‘nothing but a jumper’ policy on Christmas Eve if you play your cards right.
So the answer to whether or not a Christmas jumper will help you have sex is a little hard to clarify. They certainly can’t hurt your chances if you can pull them off (ahem) confidently, but they’re also not the ‘be all and end all’ in your sexual arsenal.
Have a play this Christmas and see what works for you.
Happy Fucking!
