Emporer Sized Bed

[edit]

I have noticed several UK references to Emporer sized bed. Is this the "Super-King"? Should Emporer be referenced on this page for UK? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.22.37.154 (talk) 04:20, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

no mention of sex?

[edit]

I was surprised that throughout the whole article there isn't any mention of sex. Like it or not, it's one of the primary uses of beds, after only sleeping. Considering that the sexual intercourse article does not mention beds either, how would an outsider (Alien?) reading wikipedia determine where we perform the deed?

Huh? There's no mention of breakfast in bed either....or reading in bed....even if you spend an hour having sex everyday in bed, you're still likely to spend 8x as much time sleeping in it - and it probably spends 12 - 16 hours a day empty. So, by your logic, the single most important use of a bed is to sit by itself with no one in it (sleeping, reading, eating, or, yes, even having intercourse) - hey, why isn't a majority of this article discussing that beds spend most of the time not being used at all? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.243.164.201 (talk) 01:51, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It's hard not to laugh, but I was surprised by this as well, given, well, how conventional this use of the bed is in Western culture, and given what it does mention as the use of beds! It's even being glossed over in the classical references to the marriage bed. Not really sure what to suggest, though: the mind boggles... I don't think it is really on a par with breakfast or reading as these things are more usually done in other places, and only occasionally in beds.

Beds

Shouldn't you at least have where they first where made? This article needs some help, but it's good so far ---- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.31.25.8 (talk) 22:35, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
