Having TV in bedroom halves your sex life. Starting a weblog will take care of the other half

ROME (Reuters) - Thinking of buying a TV for the bedroom? Think again — it could ruin your sex life.

A study by an Italian sexologist has found that couples who have a TV set in their bedroom have sex half as often as those who don't. "If there's no television in the bedroom, the frequency (of sexual intercourse) doubles," said Serenella Salomoni whose team of psychologists questioned 523 Italian couples to see what effect television had on their sex lives.

On average, Italians who live without TV in the bedroom have sex twice a week, or eight times a month. This is halved for those with a TV, the study found.

and starting a weblog will take care of the other half ..

Holy crap!... we have a tv in our bedroom... I have a blog... and we have a potty-training 3 yr old who has to pee 75 times a night (or at least she claims she has to... I have my serious doubts)... sigh... we may never get around to having another kiddo, eh?

What if you have no sex at all - would a TV improve chances towards positive minus...?

Tina said it.
