The average man will spend almost 43 minutes a day staring at 10 different women.

That adds up to 259 hours - almost 11 days - each year, making a total 11 months and 11 days between the ages of 18 and 50.

But researchers found that the males of the species are not the only ones admiring the opposite sex as women sneak a peek at six men for just over 20 minutes a day, on average.

The poll of 3,000 people revealed the supermarket as the location for the most ogling, followed by a pub and nightclub.

But whilst the majority of men and women feel flattered at being gazed at, guys are more likely to enjoy it with 19 per cent saying it makes them feel happy, compared to just nine per cent of women.

Over 40 per cent of women stated eyes as the first attraction whilst the same amount of men admitted their eyes were immediately drawn to a women's figure.

My wife ALWAYS knows where to find me if I wander off at the supermarket...frozen food section; of course.

Numbers are WAY too low!

This study is way cool beyond words! Voyeurs 'researching' voyeurs checking out chicks in the supermarket .. and getting paid for it!

Where can I sign up?

[OldMissileer]

Way underestimated. I had already spent a year staring by the time I was 14. :^)

You got me beat...but not by much! :)

Even a metrosexual evil Marxist like Othuggo gets his daily oogling time in ...

What a couple of dorks. I would wait around until she started fondling cucumbers.

[BornToBeAmerican]

If not for the girls what else would there be? Sounds low to me too

[Petronski]

I know I’ve spent at least a year staring at my wife, and I only met her four and a half years ago.

[SampleMan]

Nonsense, I spent well over a year staring at women, and that was just High School.

The average man will spend almost 43 minutes a day staring at 10 different women.

That's an average of 4.3 minutes each. Usually at three minutes they're on the cell phone requesting a restraining order.

And Women spend at least an hour or more each day staring at themselves, so they should not complain.

In other words -

Shut up and quit your bitching!

The greatest Albanian-American since John Belushi.

[Clemenza]

Yep. As a 15 year old, I spend at least an hour per day staring at my Spanish teacher in her short skirt, and then spending the remaining part of the day staring at Bridgid F who sat next to me in both classes. Amazing that I learned anything...
