Interestingly, this is exactly what Lovehoney has been looking into! And they have created a list of the horniest and least sex-driven star signs based on how much each one spent on sex toys in 2022.
Although not a totally accurate system (because not everyone is into using toys), this research gives an interesting insight into how the star signs show their sexual sides...
The most sex-driven star sign
Rocking in at number one is Cancer! This may come as a surprise to many, but actually, if you take a closer look at Cancer's personality, it shouldn't.
Cancer's love physical intimacy and crave touch, whether thats from a partner, or their own hands... It therefore makes complete sense that they buy the most sex toys. A whopping £11.2m was spent on 668,000 toys, to be precise.
Whether coupled up, or playing solo, Cancer's are drawn to heighten states of intimacy meaning they are most likely to include toys in the bedroom to send them or their partner's pleasure through the roof!
In order, next come: Taurus, Gemini, Aires, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, and...
