Women think men with big ears like Gary Lineker make better lovers, poll reveals

This will be music to blokes with big ears – woman reckon you’re hot stuff in bed.

Guys such as actor Martin Clunes, footie icon Gary Lineker and King Charles are the best lovers, according to a sex survey.

Rachel Emery, 31, of St Albans, Herts, said: “Big ears are more manly, I find them a huge turn-on. I dated a guy with small ears and I was very disappointed. The next guy I dated had ears like Martin Clunes…and he was magnificent.”

Elliott Hendry, 32, of Cardiff, said women were drawn to his huge ears “like moths to a flame” and he has never had any complaints in the bedroom department.

The 2,000 women polled for Illicit Encounters, a dating website for married people, found titchy-eared men were a turn-off.

The remaining 5% said they had no preference about ear size.
