Why Men Are Stoopid

It's all the woman's fault.

A man's brainpower, scientists say, can be damaged by sharing a bed. When they spend the night with a partner, their sleep patterns are disturbed, whether they make love or not.

This leads to poorer mental agility the next day.

Women do not suffer from the same problem. They have disturbed sleep if they share a bed, but tend to get better quality rest when they do drop off and their brain power remains undiminished.

That one where he asks me to 'look for something' under the bedcovers?
A timeless classic, forged in the white-hot dutch oven of matrimonial love.

The findings suggest if a man has an important day ahead he would be best to head off to the spare room rather than share the marital bed.

Look, I know he'd rather be working on new ideas to improve the particle-accelerator-thingie, but I really need him to scrape and paint the garage door this weekend.

UPDATE: Magical Pat postulates:

The part about not sleeping well affecting your day makes sense. The last thing you want is a woman named margaret who tosses and turns in your bed all night. Nothing worse than Restless Peg Syndrome.
