Married couples use to sleep apart in twin beds.

Rolled over: why did married couples stop sleeping in twin beds?

A new cultural history shows that until the 1950s, forward-thinking couples regarded sharing a bed as old-fashioned and unhealthy

“The twin-bed seems to have come to stay,” proclaimed the Yorkshire Herald in 1892, “and will no doubt in time succeed the double bed in all rooms occupied by two persons”.

The proclamation may have proved less than accurate, but for almost a century between the 1850s and 1950s, separate beds were seen as a healthier, more modern option for couples than the double, with Victorian doctors warning that sharing a bed would allow the weaker sleeper to drain the vitality of the stronger.

I have always liked having my own bed and being able to spread out and hog it.

I also feel obligated to spare anyone my obnoxious snoring!
 
I think the Twin Beds on TV was a product of Christians and their view that 'sex was icky'. Broadcasting a single bed for two people of the opposite sex ... well that was just too much for the General Public.

Hayes Code:

"Motion Picture Production Code
The Motion Picture Production Code was a set of industry guidelines for the self-censorship of content that was applied to most United States motion pictures released by major studios from 1934 to 1968. It is also popularly known as the Hays Code, after Will H.Wikipedia"
 
"Specific restrictions were spelled out as "Particular Applications" of these principles:

Nudity and suggestive dances were prohibited.
The ridicule of religion was forbidden, and ministers of religion were not to be represented as comic characters or villains."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_H._Hays

"Excessive and lustful kissing" was to be avoided, along with any other treatment that might "stimulate the lower and baser element."
 
Well one thing is for sure.

When an individual is truly asleep, there is no awareness of whether or not someone else is in the same bed.

Sleep is the primary reason for a bed.
 
A king size bed is no more intimate than twin beds anyway,

plus there's always the Welsh Terrier chaperone to stay in the middle, precluding any funny business between geriatrics.
 
My wife and I go to sleep every night touching each other and usually wake up sleeping the same way. Both of us sleep little when traveling alone as that touching is missed

Good for you. No matter how hot it is, we do the same, and have to have at least some bit touching the other. Separate beds sounds so lonely and sad.

Separate rooms and bathrooms sound so goddamned convenient, though.

If my wife and dog are in bed, and I finally wander in around 2 or 3 AM, they both give me the stink eye for disturbing them.
Maybe I should just stay in my recliner down in the mancave, but that, or considering moving into another room, pisses them off too.

There's no such thing as winning. I've at least figured that much out.

:laugh:

I do like separate bathrooms. I keep mine pristine. I'm afraid to go into his without rubber gloves and a smock. :rofl2:
 
People should sleep however they sleep best



I’m at so fortunate to sleep well


Activity, good food, lots of water and being kind to others is the key for me

Can't help noticing that all those that thanked Kenny are women, well apart from Crypiss who's a big girl's blouse anayway.
 
I think the Twin Beds on TV was a product of Christians and their view that 'sex was icky'. Broadcasting a single bed for two people of the opposite sex ... well that was just too much for the General Public.

Hayes Code:

"Motion Picture Production Code
The Motion Picture Production Code was a set of industry guidelines for the self-censorship of content that was applied to most United States motion pictures released by major studios from 1934 to 1968. It is also popularly known as the Hays Code, after Will H. Wikipedia"

The Hay's Code didn't apply to TV, although the power of sponsors was arguably even more draconian.

I think you're jealous no one would sleep with you, and you blame Christians for your....dysfunction.

Well, almost no one

Stick to the British Telly, Tommy.

"The Hays Code, written by a Jesuit priest and Catholic publisher, was designed as “a code regulating the moral content of feature films, designed so that Hollywood could police itself and thus avoid or minimize outside censorship"
https://www.oif.ala.org/oif/?p=11998

"One of the most famous examples of code censorship “include the $5,000 fine David O. Selznick had to pay in 1939 because Rhett Butler says, ‘Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.’ in Gone with the Wind rather than the code office’s preferred, ‘Frankly, my dear, I just don’t care (Kroon, “MPPC”).”

(shaking head) China comes in a distant second when talking about Censorship.

So as I said the Hay's Office was set up to regulate the motion picture industry.
