Canadians apparently love sex, hate TV

A recent article claims to have uncovered proof that Canadian baby-boomers prefer watching television to having sex. The study, which targeted adults between the ages of 40 and 64, indicates that while most participants reported spending an average of 15 minutes a day on sex and romance, they reported spending as much as five hours a day watching TV or surfing the Internet.

Freaky Canadians… only five hours a day watching TV or surfing the Net? Pah-leez! We, Americans, watch five hours of America’s Next Top Model and related coverage every day. And what about Idol? Sure the show is only an hour, but then you’ve got to spend at least another two hours frantically calling in votes for Ace and Kellie. And for those of us who have office jobs, seriously… what else do we do between the two 30-minute meetings we have each day but surf the web, shop and check our email?

And who are they trying to impress? Fifteen minutes a day on sex and romance? What the hell are they doing for all that time? I’ll give you seven minutes tops for sex – and that’s on a special occasion like an anniversary or something. Maybe five minutes to clean up or change the sheet. What are they doing for the other three minutes? Talking?

…and that’s every day?! I’m exhausted just thinking about it!
