Single men may think sexts are a good way to flirt, but the majority of women see them as a turn-off.
According to Match.com's annual Singles survey, 75per cent of women say they don't enjoy getting sexy photos from men, and 61per cent say even clothed selfies are bad, too.
Unsurprisingly, the opposite was true for men; the study found that three-quarters of male respondents say they are happy to receive a revealing photo from the opposite sex.
Women may not like receiving sexy photos, but more than a third do like sending them; 36per cent admitted to having texted a revealing photo of themselves to a man.
And among singles who have received sexy photos from the opposite sex, 26per cent of men and 23per cent of women admit to sharing the photo with friends
So instead of texting a sexy selfie, men should consider sending non-sexual photos, which are enjoyed by 79per cent of women, or emoticons, which 76per cent of females say they like.
