Please don’t! Just sleep alone if you care for your (and the world’s)health, peace, tranquility and propserity.
“IF YOU have ever thought you were stupid to sleep with someone, consider this…Sharing your bed could actually make you stupid if you are a man – at least temporarily,” say Gerhard Kloesch and colleagues from the University of Vienna, Austria.
“Even without having sex, bed sharing disturbs sleep quality, The team recruited eight unmarried, childless couples, and used questionnaires and a wrist activity monitor, an ‘actigraph’, to assess sleep patterns after 10 nights together and 10 apart.
“Men and women fared differently. While men thought they slept better with a partner, and women believed they didn’t, actually both sexes had more disturbed sleep, even when they did not have sex.
“Lack of sleep led to increased stress hormone levels in men, and reduced their ability to perform simple cognitive tests the next day.
However, the women apparently slept more deeply when they did sleep, since they claimed to be more refreshed than their sleep time suggested. Their stress levels and mental scores did not suffer to the same extent.”
Kloesch presented his work at a meeting of the Forum of European Neurosciences in Vienna last week. “Sleeping with someone also affected dream recall, with women remembering more after sleeping alone and men recalling best after sex.”
It is really strange/funny. My grandmother had a peculiar theory. She believed that the world became topsyturvy ever since the double-bed was discovered. By sharing a bed with women, she maintained, men became effeminate and lost their mystique among women. And became weak in the head and irrational.

I strongly recommend that single beds be introduced with immediate effect in the White House, 10 Downing Street and other power residences in the world to save this world where the political leadership is increasingly becoming irrational!!!
This has to be the worst article I have ever read. Did a eight year old write it?
How did this get on the front page of Google news… jeesh..
Yeah when I sleep with the woman I love I toss and turn and wake up angry. I guess the alternative to waking up angry is reading this article. What was the basis for this useless research again? I’d rather have read a 40 page article on what birds do in their free time… GET A JOB!
Well, Rob and Laura Petrie seem to have had a happy marriage. That was until Morey Amsterdam exploded the tranquility.
Yeah, people were meant to have sex at Starbucks anyway.
Disembowel any Muslim women lately Swaraaj?
An inane article that would not have been published in any self-respecting journal. The writer embarasses himself.
You know what your problem is guys? You are sleeping with someone. It has made you stupid.
Women suck the energy out of men while they sleep. This is what is happening in this study. Look into stories of Succubi etc.
It is a real effect that has been happening since human beings began walking. Millions of people across the globe know this.
It is only in the western democracies where the governments have a program of lying to people about reality that people such as yourselves do not know this.
You have had the truth brainwashed out of you. Think about it. Was their WMD in Iraq? Hell no. They lied just like they always lie.
Human beings have energy. Women suck the energy out of men if they sleep or work together. It is a fact of the existence of the human animal.
Happeh
Damn and all this time I thought my wife was only sucking the energy out of me when I was awake. I had no idea it was happening in my sleep as well.
Maybe I should sleep on my stomach.
Obviously Swaraaj is a loveless hapless animal.
I did not know that TMV readers are so serious that a lighthearted piece would disturb their sleep/peace more than what is going on for years in Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan put together, and now Lebanon.
Someone thundered in this comments column that how did this stupid bedroom news get into the Google news column in the first place!!!
What is news?
We are now so accustomed to getting our daily dose of murder and barbarism for three years now that nothing else catches our imagination – howsoever stupid/interesting/comical it may be.
The problem is we have stopped laughing, and take our leaders/politicians/our comments, and the world, too seriously.
Lighten up friends, all your profound thoughts would then become as hilarious as the ones from the Austrian bedroom researcher!!! Cheers
I did not know that sleeping in a double-bed is a reliable yardstick of the presence of love in one’s life!!!
Hey Jan! By the way women find me very attractive and love me a lot. I love my wife the most, and she reciprocates the love heartily. We have been married for 30 years now!!!
Now please don’t ask me whether I sleep in a single bed or a double bed!!!
Let me share a jolly secret with the CONSERVATIVE/SERIOUS TMV readers.
If you are a male and don’t want your woman/wife to dominate you then always sleep on her right side!!! And if you happen to be a woman reader (and wish to dominate) then sleep on his right side!!! LoL
This would also help readers to overcome their bitterness while writing comments in the TMV.
No…No…No….Joe.
Please don’t ban anyone. Your blog can be used for therapeutic purposes. As I see it there are extremely sick people who need help and sympathy.
Blog is a great window and an opportunity to provide help and serve a social cause.
What you need to do is to tie up with a blog run by a professional pscychiatrist. That psychiatrist can give advice, and also recommend medicines to those who are on the edge.
If these people in need do not have money to buy medicines, then we can campaign for their free treatment
Well, that was their problem, right there. Maybe the pro-family forces could use this in a marketing campaign. “Get Married and have kids! You’ll sleep better!”
I think we have all learned from this that Indian humor is on a different frequency wavelength that American humor.
