Survey: Many would take Internet over sex

[NJmaverick]

Story Highlights
* Survey: Nearly half of women would forgo sex rather than give up Internet access
* More women than men would be willing to give up sex, the survey found
* The survey, commissioned by Intel, queried 2,119 adults in the U.S. last month
* Most adults also would forgo two weeks of TV over one week of Internet use
* Men would go without sex for six months in exchange for a 50 inch HDTV

2. It's all about stimulation

And ease. If one thing is faster, more stimulating, you can do it for hours, day in, day out, and put little effort into it but get a lot out...who wouldn't pick that?

3. No one is warned that there's a risk of injury

If you're online four more than four hours
