    What are our favourite numbers?
    What are the favourite numbers between 1 and 100 of people in the western world? And what are our least favourite numbers?

    Is there any evidence or suggestion that favourite and least favourite numbers vary by region or culture?

    My favourite number is 10!

    My least favourite is 88 (two fat ladies!)

    But I guess if you ask most drunk, male, white college students what their favourite number is they're sure to reply...

    "69 dude!"

    I think that's linked to culture... or lack of it! Lol!

    My favorite numbers are 8, 7, and 3, respectively. So you could say my favorite number is 873, or would it be 378?

    My least favorite number is 6.

    4 has always been mine. Everyone I've ever known likes 7 though.

    9-Here are my reasons:

    1 It was my first All-Star Number
    2 It is the square of 3, and 3 is one of my favorite numbers
    3 It is the greatest single digit number

    My most favourite is 11.
    You can have great fun with this number.

    This puts me on a limb:
    The least favouite is 7.
    WHY? Almost every number has some form of properties.7 is very lacking.
