In India’s IT capital, 40.8% youth want sex toys to be easily available in markets. Just 26.3% from Mumbai agree to this and the rest, with just 1.7% from Bhubaneswa­r, think sex aids have no place in people’s homes.

On a positive note, 92.2% from the Karnataka capital say they have good friends cutting across religious lines as against the all-India figure of 52%. About 81.5% in Ahmedabad, however, say they don’t have such friends.

And while 63.1% Indians say they won’t go in for inter-caste marriage, youngsters from Chandigarh (56.7%), Hyderabad (50%) and Bengaluru (47.2%) have no such issues.

About 50.5% people from the Karnatoo taka capital also say they won’t mind being in a live-in relationsh­ip. Bhubaneswa­r (95%) and Indore (94.2%) give the idea a thumbs down. Despite having reservatio­ns over live-in relationsh­ips, 45% people in Kochi say there is nothing wrong in premarital sex if both the partners are in love.
