Sex or the Internet: What if You Had to Choose?
What if you had to choose between two elements that are part of your life? According to a survey released by Intel Corporation, around half of women eighteen and older would rather go without sex for two weeks than without access to the Internet. Are they crazy or right on? Which would you miss most? Give us the scoop!
I would give up the internet, for sex any time, place, you name it. SEX is a great stress reliever. If it were not for sex I probably would have went insane by now. Sex is awesome and nothing is better!!!!!

Wow. I would drop the internet like a hot potato! I think about sex constantly, and although I LOVE going online, I enjoy reading a good old-fashioned newspaper or walking to my friend's house just as much. SO, no question, SEX!!!! I am fortunate to have a loving, attentive, husband whose sex drive is probably half of what mine is. But he makes an effort to keep up with me!
I would give up the Internet in a heart beat for two weeks for sex but then again I am sex deprived. Does that mean sex everyday for two weeks!? Computer? What computer? Internet? never heard of it. :)))
My boyfriend is in Puerto Rico and I am in Malaysia. I am faithful to him and there is no one else that I love or want other than him. Even if he is here but away from me (be it on business or for pleasure), I would still rather go without sex for 2 weeks than without access to the internet.
ive just been told by my hubby to pick, him or the net.. cause i spend alot of time on it.. he thinks im in love with it not him anymore....
Hmmm well I have personally been without both before and for a lot longer and I find that going with out that physical connection is harder then going with out checking my emails and playing online. Sex wins hands down in my eyes. I couldn't imagine trading physical for a false sense of it. That is the only reason we get on half the time is to feel connected. So why not choice sex or internet?

I have to agee with kate jon I,m at the age where my spouse and I are not as young as we used to be and I can go without sex now andI would rather surf the internet myself.
I have to agree with Denny. After a long days work, you just want to sit and relax your brain and muscles namely your brain. Sex is not something you just get into like putting on your pants. It takes some foreplay and that part is fun but also tiring at times. Let's face it we are not 16 with raging Hormones and Estrogens

Hmmm, that's a toughy! Just kidding. I've gone longer (much longer) than two weeks without sex; but two weeks without the Internet? Perish the thought! I thrive on information. I need to have answers to questions when I want them. I'm spoiled that way.
Speaking in-the-moment, and probably for the past year, I would rather go two weeks without internet than sex. I have never felt the way that I do and I don't think that it's just because I haven't had sex in awhile, but it's because of the connections you feel, when you're with someone that you care about.
