Virgin SEX POLL soldiers? You must be joking!

Vicky Dunn says… Victoria Kemp says…

I’VE never dated a soldier, but I did go out with one bloke who THOUGHT he was in the army just because he liked to watch war films and play Call of Duty on his Playstatio­n!

It used to drive me mad. In fact, he spent so much time on the battlefiel­ds of his video game console that he completely forgot about me. I was totally neglected!

In the end, while he was fighting online, I went out and had sex with one of his best friends at a party.

Well, I reckoned it served him right. A woman’s got needs, you know? IF you live in a town with a large military presence your missus is more likely to be CHEATING on you, claims a controvers­ial new survey.

Infidelity website Ashley Madison.com, which helps to arrange AFFAIRS, says members of the armed forces represent a huge proportion of their members.

And Woolwich in east London – home to The Royal Artillery Barracks – is reckoned to have the highest concentrat­ion of unfaithful servicemen and women.

A spokesman said: “Being exposed to danger and high stress situations can lead people to cheat as a way to cope with the tension in their lives.

“Many military personnel also struggle with being separated from their family for extended periods of time, and an affair can be a way of finding intimacy and emotional connection­s when far away from home.

“Also, people who choose to serve in the military tend to be natural risk takers, making them more likely to take risks in their personal lives.”

The site even polled 8,492 military personnel to discover why and when they have affairs, and with whom.

The majority – 68.6% of men and 63.2% of women – say affairs act as a form of ‘stress release’.

A further 37.5% of men and 33.8% of women have affairs as a result of being separated from their spouse for extended periods of time.

A shag-happy 39.4% of men and 43.6% of women have affairs with other members of the military, while 31.6% of men and 37.1% of women prefer to cheat with civilians.

So do soldiers make good lovers? We asked three of our girls to find out: I DATED a squaddie for six months when I was 20, and he had the best body I’ve ever seen in my life!

He was confident, but not arrogant, and he was an amazing lover. In fact, I’d say he was the love of my life and definitely the one that got away.

When he’d come in from training he’d be all clammy and dirty and with bulging biceps.

I usually ripped off his clothes right there and then!
