Sharing a bed with someone could temporarily reduce your brain power - at least if you are a man - Austrian scientists suggest.
When men spend the night with a bed mate their sleep is disturbed, whether they make love or not, and this impairs their mental ability the next day.
The lack of sleep also increases a man's stress hormone levels.
According to the New Scientist study, women who share a bed fare better because they sleep more deeply.

VATICAN CITY -- Pope Benedict XVI has a new commandment for priests struggling to get their message across: Go forth and blog.
The pope, whose own presence on the Web has heavily grown in recent years, urged priests on Saturday to use all multimedia tools at their disposal to preach the Gospel and engage in dialogue with people of other religions and cultures.
And just using e-mail or surfing the Web is often not enough: Priests should use cutting-edge technologies to express themselves and lead their communities, Benedict said in a message released by the Vatican.
"The spread of multimedia communications and its rich 'menu of options' might make us think it sufficient simply to be present on the Web," but priests are "challenged to proclaim the Gospel by employing the latest generation of audiovisual resources," he said.

WRIST pain is often blamed on excessive computer use or working with heavy machinery but a controversial new report has suggested a very different explanation - too much sex.
Repetitive movements during lovemaking puts extra weight on the wrists, says a top medic, The Sun reports.
This causes carpal tunnel syndrome and is one of the most common types of wrist problem in the UK.
The syndrome traps nerves, causing pain and numbness and affects as many as one person in 20.
It is among the most prevalent forms of RSI, which causes 5.4million sick days every year.
Increases in the number of sufferers coincided with the launch of new drugs such as Viagra, according to the research.
And the obesity epidemic could have fuelled the rise. Extra weight placed on the wrists may have led to more problems, claims the study
