Men & Women Dump Sex for 50-inch Plasma Hdtv & Internet

Posted by Kevin C. Wednesday, December 17, 2008

If you had to give up sex for an hdtv or the use of the internet would you? Two recent surveys polled both men and women about this very matter. A recent survey this year conducted by Comet on Britons found that almost 50% of the men polled would give up sex for 6-months, if they were given a 50-inch Plasma hdtv.

In another non-related survey conducted by Intel and Harris Interactive, they found nearly 46% of their female responders would rather sex for two weeks, than give-up their internet access.

I think two weeks is a plausible scenario to give up sex. But if I had to give up sex for six months…….my life would turn into the Heroes season 1 finale: “How to Stop an Exploding Man”.

From DailyTech.com

"Almost half of women questioned by Harris Interactive said that they would choose to abandon sex for two weeks, over sacrificing their internet access, according to a study released Monday by Intel, which delegated the survey."

"The survey results, comprised of 2,119 adult respondents surveyed last month in the U.S., make up part of Intel's broader commissioned study on Americans' reliance on the internet in today's economy."

"Although nearly 46 percent of women respondents showed their willingness to give up sex life over Web access, only 30 percent of men surveyed would do the same."

"Although men's willingness to give up sex for internet drags behind women's scores, bringing in other sacrificial options, such as television, presents slightly different results. For example, According to Reuters, a survey from earlier this year conducted by Comet on Britons resulted in nearly half of men respondents choosing to forgo sex for six months if they could have a 50-inch plasma TV. Only just over a third of women would make the same choice."
