Different beds can improve relationships
I believe it.
Buying a duplex and each getting one side seems like a good relationship compromise to me.
This is so perfect. Like after all these years someone decided to overanalyze Goldilocks.
Depictions of couples sharing a bed especially on TV for example is a relatively recent phenomenon. It was considered polite to provide separate beds
Old TV shows made separate beds a thing for appeals to protestant morality. Prior to that separate beds was a rich people thing. Communal sleeping had been the long standing norm. Commoners didn’t have the space/money typical for multiple beds or even multiple sleeping quarters to make separate sleeping possible. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240111-sleep-the-lost-ancient-practise-of-sharing-a-bed
It also appealed to Catholics who couldn’t use birth control and therefor sometimes remained separated well into their marriage unless they were trying for children.
The sequel: https://corneliaspelman.com/mama-and-daddy-bears-divorce/
Here it is, read aloud:
This book was written in 1998, so I guess it was very common for dads to only get weekends for custody. But, as a divorced dad with a 50-50 arrangement with the mom, I still find the premise of this book offensive.
Looks like We Bare Bears
That’s not funny
