Study: Twice as Much Sex on TV

Television these days is loaded with sex, sex, sex - double the number of sex scenes aired seven years ago, says a study out Wednesday. And the number of shows that include "safer sex" messages has leveled off, it said.

There were nearly 3,800 scenes with sexual content spotted in more than 1,100 shows researchers studied, up from about 1,900 such scenes in 1998, the first year of the Kaiser Family Foundation survey.

Vicky Rideout, a vice president at Kaiser, says the number of shows that included a message about the risks and responsibilities of sex is still very small, and has remained flat since 2002.

"Not true, I never have sex on the television. I am afraid of breaking it. Plus you try to fit on a 52 inch
wide screen on a pedestal."

Me and BigMomma_TX had sex on the Riviera once, we fell
off the hood and moved back over to the Truck.

OK, that takes care of the news. How about regular programing?

I prefer the couch to the TV - more comfie and I like leather.

Twice as Much Sex on TV .... and half as much at home I would speculate.
