There are plenty of popular sex positions that every guy tends to try out, but, overall, is there one that’s more popular than another? That’s a question many people have probably asked themselves at some point in their lives — and, thanks to a little research, we have a little more information on an answer.

The website ZavaMed.com polled 2,000 people in both Europe and the United States, interested in finding their favorite sex positions, which ones they want to try the most and how those break down between genders and location. The results? Well, as you might have imagined, we’re all a bunch of freaks when it comes to bedroom activity. Take a look at some of the popular sex positions in the world, per the study.

Of course, the results could be skewed by gender, so take a look at how girls and guys ranked their preferred sex positions, per the research.
