This type of garbage is why I almost never go on this site save for a few blogs. Way to make psychology today look even worse. The people who run this site should delete this abomination of a "psychology blog".

Thanks for your comment--my wife and I got a good chuckle from it. You won't believe this, but the History Channel recently did a special titled "Sex in Space." I missed it, but here's a link describing it: http://www.newscientist.com/blogs/shortsharpscience/2008/12/histo... A very competent writer, Laura Woodmansee also wrote a serious book on the subject: http://www.amazon.com/Sex-Space-Laura-S-Woodmansee/dp/1894959442 As for sex in a sleeping bag, a book I enjoyed tremendously is "How to Have Sex in the Woods by Luann Colombo http://www.amazon.com/How-Have-Woods-Luann-Colombo/dp/0609804022 Another book on the subject that I've not yet read is titled "Sex in a Tent: A Wild Couple's Guide to Getting Naughty in Nature" by Michelle Waitzman. http://www.amazon.com/Sex-Tent-Couples-Getting-Naughty/dp/0899974325
