Men and Women in Bed: Further Thoughts

July 21st, 2006

Yesterday I posted the article “Study: Men Sleep Better Alone” which discussed research from Vienna about how men and women rate their quality of sleep.

In the study, men and women were questioned and tested on sleep quality when sleeping together and apart. Thinking about the results at greater length, the following points come to mind:

• The couples tested were in their twenties.
• The article cited does not specify how long the couples were in their relationships and how long and how regularly they do sleep together.
• The couples were unmarried.
• The study was limited to a mere eight couples.

What is really interesting, though, is the fact that the men were either mistaken or lying about their quality of sleep, while women’s responses were judged to be accurate.

Are men clueless, or just telling our significant others what we think they want to hear?
