4.0 Preferably with my girlfriend

Most people, men and women alike, prefer to talk to a woman on the phone: one in three men (36 percent) say they most like to talk to their wife or girlfriend. Women, however, put their best friend at the top of the list. Only one in six (18 percent) most like talking to their other half on the phone. If they could talk to someone famous, most German men say they would like to talk to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, followed by model and TV personality Heidi Klum and reality TV star Daniela Katzenberger. Women would most like to get television host Günther Jauch on the line. If he’s busy, they’d also like to talk to actors George Clooney or Til Schweiger. At the end of a relationship, it is the weaker sex that seems to be harder on the phone, with substantially more men (18 percent) than women (8 percent) being dumped by phone.
