Some readers will remember a question I asked earlier this week: “Who’s doing it?”  I came across research showing that diet and stress can inhibit the sex drive.  Now, Health.com has an article on 10 reasons why people are not having sex.  Many of the reasons are standard advice, but one – the first one that they list – is usually overlooked, even by me when I write about the subject.

This will make bed a good place to be

The article lists reason 1 as the bed is no longer sexy:

“We hear it over and over again: The bed should be used for sex and sleep only. So why do so many of us insist on bringing third parties—laptops, PDAs, Law & Order—into the boudoir? All that technology and distraction can cause insomnia and put a damper on your sex life. After all, it’s harder to initiate sex if your spouse is hiding behind a newspaper or glued to the TV or if your hands are busy exploring the Web rather than his body.”

That looks like great first advice.  If the bed is cluttered with work or other things, it’s hard to imagine anyone being interested in sex.  So clean off the bed as a first step to fire things up.  Better yet, put one of these into the bed to get things going with even more fun!
