That better be the best damn 50" TV in all eternity and in all creation (not just this universe), and then some.

Then again, could it be the surveyors are forgetting about...*cough*alternatives*cough*?

Given the choice between sex once per month or being able to watch a "good film" on a 50" television it would be a close one.

Bear in mind the television has an "on" button which would always work ......

What they left out in the survey was:

50% of American men would give up sex for six months (with a pretty woman of course!!) in exchange for a Lamborghini, or a .50BMG Barrett, or an original Humvee, or a 50+ foot yacht. The surveyors didn't bother to interview the puff boys since they gave up having sex with women, period!

Sex with whom?

Thier wife?

I think that 50% of men are probably board of their wife and would rather have a 50" TV to watch p0rn on.

What on earth would you do with a 0.50 Barett? Hunt deer? or hunt a tank?

Now a yacht, that I might go for.

If you have to ask you do not get it. Tin cans and old bottles will suffice.

Makes you wonder who makes these up - most houses in the UK aren't big enough for a 50 inch TV :P

what they forgot to mention is we'll take the TV home and have sex anyhow.... hell is the retailer going to come and check me out ? don't think so and not having sex won't "save money for the TV" as I don't have a TV and don't want one seems I'm entitled to some extra screwing (will have to enquire as to the possibility of that) and yes size does matter most to men I know of a very good sex and relationships forum where all the young illusioned lads are pleading to be told if theirs is big enough (some giving overley accurate measurements) whilst the girls are all asking "how the heck is he going to fit"

So in my case I'd take the sex and leave the oversized TV to some other poor sod that don't have a life*


*this does not imply that I have much of a life

That won't stop them buying one I bet. Lots of houses have TVs that are clearly too big for the room.
