  | British Men Would Give Up Sex for New TV LONDON (Reuters) - 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 surveyed 2,000 Britons, asking them what they would give up for a large television, one of the latest consumer "must-haves". The firm 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. A quarter of people said they would give up smoking, with roughly the same proportion willing to give up chocolate. (Reporting by Peter Apps, editing by Paul Casciato) |

| Re: British Men Would Give Up Sex for New TV I'd do the opposite.  Thanks again Maddux! Adri: women don't discuss men while in the bathroom, we sacrifice small animals and smoke tampons *rolls eyes* |
