From Reuters via Consumerist:
Nearly half of British men surveyed would give up sex for six months in return for a 50-inch plasma TV, a survey -- perhaps unsurprisingly carried out for a firm selling televisions -- said on Friday.
Electrical retailer Comet ... found 47 percent of men would give up sex for half a year, compared to just over a third of women.
"It seems that size really does matter more for men than women," the firm said....
Presumably it's the upper half of men that would prefer the television to sex.

The question surprises me
The question surprises me more than the result... Who comes up with these surveys, anyway?!

heh, if i lived in UK, i
heh, if i lived in UK, i would be one of those men :D (thought i would rather have a new computer monitor than a TV)
Control question
What fraction of men would give up a 50-inch plasma TV in exchange for sex for six months?
Curious
I wonder how many of those men get sex more than once or twice a year....
Exactly
If giving up sex for six months was, as I suspect, a matter of missing it 2-6 times, as it is for many men I know, it seems like an easy choice. :)
