I have neither a television in my sleeping quarters nor a live-in bang but I'm fairly confident if I did this article might lead me to heave said boob-tube out the m-f-in window:

"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 drops to an average of four times a month for those with a TV, the study found.

Again, I posess no steady bang. But if I did, I seriously doubt the presence of a picture box would interfere with my desire for the wet n' slippery. Maybe if you're in a long term relationship it's different.

I suppose I could see how some quality programming might be an attractive alternative to my bump 'n grind stylings for any woman goodly enough to share my bed. I don't know.

Is TiVo a workable solution for this problem? What say you, poco friends?
