Married People - Do you have a tv in your bedroom?

We had a little 13" (if that) tv/vcr combo in the bedroom but we rearranged and it ended up in the basement in the kids play area. SO currently, we do NOT have one.
 
Marital experts? Lol.. thats a good one. We are married and have a tv in our bedroom.. to be honest though, we don't watch tv there. We don't watch much tv though... Computer yes, tv no... We watch movies/recorded sci fi tv shows on our 61 inch in the living room with sound system on occasion.
 
married, no tv in bedroom.

just got an HDTV and have a 20" tv sitting on the floor in the living room, though. i'm thinking it would be better off in another location, not the bedroom.

Reasons?

I can answer that. There are a lot of times I want to sleep and my wife wants to watch TV. Logic would say that the person who wants to watch TV would do so in the room dedicated to TV and let the person who wants to sleep do so in the room dedicated to sleep. All to often I end up either sleeping in the room dedicated to TV or watching TV in the room dedicated to sleep instead of sleeping.

With that said, my head hurts, I'm gonna go watch TV and go to sleep...
 
I remember hearing something awhile back about this, and it went further to say that what genre of television you watch also has an effect on how decreased your sex life is.

I'm living with my fiance, and last year we had a tv in the bedroom. When we moved to our new place, I got rid of the tv. I like not having it, even though we didn't watch it often when we had it.
 
Yeah, another stupid meaningless study...:roll:

I wonder how reading the bible before bedtime affects a couple's sex life. That's something I'll never know the answer to...at least not personally. 😛
 
Was just googling around and found this recent study in the UK:

But sleep and lifestyle expert Cliff Arnall, of the British Psychological society, said that while the bed may be a good place to relax, the survey showed we have "lost the art of sleeping". He added watching TV or working in bed can stop rapid eye movement sleep, which we need for vivid dreams.

He said: "I think it's a bad habit. In today's society you're somehow abnormal if you don't have three TVs and people use the TV to help them sleep.

"The trouble with that is that for a particular type of sleep we have when we dream called rapid eye movement (REM), it gets in the way. I suppose the other thing is that we have lost the art of sleeping.

"People are using their bedroom for things they ought to be doing outside the bedroom. People need to be re-educated really because people aren't taking sleep seriously enough."

Nope. The bedroom is for two things....sleep & sex.

No TV. No exercise equipment. No computer. When you go to the bedroom at the end of the night it's for a very limited number of reasons.
 
I sleep in complete darkness and silence. Well, once in a while I listen to music when I go to sleep.

At some point, watching the tapes will be like the view between two parallel mirrors.
 
I have a 32" TV, digital cable, a DVD player, a VCR and my surround sound receiver and speakers.

I also have a 32" TV in the living room, but I rarely watch it.
