16. 75 percent of Japanese women own vibrators. The global average is 47 percent.

I'm having trouble imagining Chinese and Indian peasants with vibrators.

I also do not believe:

18. There has never been a sex-change operation performed in Ireland.



Good point but those two are prob counted differently. Phone calls are counted in people and the vibrators in non-weighted country average. Just a theory though
