With over 1.6 million smartphone users in Ireland, today’s couples are interacting with their devices more than each other, leaving almost 50% of Irish lovers feeling dissatisfied with the frequency of their sex lives.
Ray spoke to Riona Durkan, Brand Manager from Durex Ireland, about why it’s time to “turn off to turn on”.
This Saturday from 8.30-9.30pm is Earth Hour. As well as switching off the usual appliances, Durex are asking everyone to switch off their Tablets and smartphones and reconnect with each other while the lights are out.
They’ve posted a video on their Facebook page which shows couples who are distracted by their phones and iPads:
(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));
