Maybe that woman in the UK who refuses to sleep with her husband is onto something: the husbands don't want to sleep with her either.
A new survey of folks across the pond finds 47% of their menfolk would give up a full six months of sex for the pleasure of a 50 inch television. Readers who are surprised by this revelation obviously have never seen Maria Bartiromo (pictured above) or, um, Mythbusters.
It should be noted that the study mentioned here was conducted by a television manufacturer and probably only surveyed married people, who aren't getting laid anyway. Two other things are interesting, though: only one third of women said they would give up sex for six months, compared to half of the men; and only a quarter of those surveyed said they would give up smoking.
Does that mean smoking is officially better than sex?
