Quick! Move that TV into the den!

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 drops to an average of four times a month for
those with a TV, the study found.
For the over-50s the effect is even more marked, with
the average of seven couplings a month falling to just
1.5 times.
The study found certain programs are far more likely
to impede passion than others. Violent films will put
a stop to sexual relations for half of all couples,
while reality shows stem passion for a third of couples.
