A recent survey found that 33% of Americans would sooner give up sex for a week than go without their mobile phones for the same period of time. Navigation software leader Telenav surveyed 514 mobile phone users in the U.S. last month to find out how willing they were to give up certain things ahead of their cell phones. Respondents were most willing to part with alcohol instead of their phones, with 70% saying they would go a week without booze before going a week without a phone. At the other end of the spectrum were computers, with only 20% of those surveyed having said they would prefer to part with a PC than a cell phone. A few more interesting snippets were also provided: 63% of BlackBerry users and 62% of Android users said they had never paid more than $1 for an app, compared to 45% of iPhone users. 50% of iOS users and 55% of Android users said they update social networks from their phones, compared to 40% of BlackBerry users. Finally, 66% of all smartphone users polled said they sleep with their handsets next to them. Telenav’s infographic detailing highlights from the survey follows below, along with the associated press release.

Those are people who weren't going to be having sex during that week anyway.

That one third of Americans probably weren't going to have sex that week anyway. Have you seen some of these fat shits?

Given than a cell phone is my primary means of business and emergency communication, I'd give up sex for a week to keep it as well.

I'd gladly give up my cell phone for sex. Any takers?

Women only please...

I'm definitely tossing the cell phone over almost everything on that list...cell phone > alcohol.

Considering I have a 6 year old dumb phone the choice is quite easy. Especially since the phone is a convenience rather than a necessity (e.g. I don't need it for work).


I love this thing, it's pretty beaten up but it still works just fine. The battery life is terrible but I chalk that up to an aged battery.

Assuming a personal cell and not a company one that you're on call, definitely I'd put cell phone over sex. You use your cell most of the day, when you think about it. Maybe not actively, but it's on you and ready to use at any time. Someone can call you and you can immediately pick it up You can pull it out and start playing brick breaker or some other game or app if you're in a waiting room.

Sex, if you're really really really lucky you'll do it once a day, for what, 15 minutes? I never had it before but I'm guessing it does not last any longer than that? Ok, an hour then? Whatever. Then it's over. You're all sweaty and smelly, there's cum all over the place, you have to take a shower, clean up after the mess, and if something went wrong, you'll lose whatever left of your freedom in 9 months.

Yeah, I'll take the cell.

Dude, you're over thinking this. Just roll over and go to sleep.

I might miss the cell phone when I go take a crap at work and I can't play angry birds but otherwise you can have the fucking thing.

If you left your cell phone at work and realized it after you left, would you go back for it? I've been less than a mile away on a Friday afternoon and not gone back for my cell phone.

I really couldn't possibly give a shit about it.

I'm pretty much the same way. Nothing that I control will save a life or prevent a war so immediate contact is rather pointless. Just 20 years ago it was rare to see a cell phone and somehow the world survived.

You are one of the fat losers the other posters are talking about. You also admitted to having no idea what you're talking about and I suspect you're a closet homo.

Edit: Just like I tell locotus or whoever go get fucking laid and stop embarassing yourself
