In terms of movie standards, the result is a disappointing - "PG-13" or even less for 40% of Americans. It means that movies about Americans’ everyday lives could be seen even by children.
Partly, jobs drain the passion right out of men and women. This reason was chosen by 27% of men and 30% of women polled by Agavero while about 30% of being surveyed are lucky if they see each other before going to sleep (what passion could we speak about in this situation?).
Also, Agavero asked people to define passion. Here are some results:
For 36% of men and 46% of women passion means a loving and longing embrace, for 18% of men and 20% of women - an uncontrollable desire, while 16% of men and 21% of women used traditional attributes to describe it (such as candles, flowers, soft kisses and a fireplace).
To get in the romantic and passion mood, many people use music and private romantic candlelight dinners (29% of men and 41% of women). Men also mentioned the influence of a nice women’ lingerie (21% of being polled).
