Default Which side of the bed do you sleep?

Interesting discussion in lunchroom today about this!... Pretty evenly divided amongst the guys... And left or right handed really didn't seem to influence.
Is there a specific "manly" or "macho" side to be seen sleeping??
So... Which side??? (maybe someone can do a poll? I haven't a clue how) :evil_laug

Aparantly legend says that the man should sleep closest to the window (incase an intruder enters so the man will be the first to cop it and he has the chance to defend her) and furtherest away from the toilet (so she has less distance to travel if nature should call) well.....that how my misses explains it??

Depends on how i'm looking at the bed. Looking from the end which my feet hang over, towards the pillows, it is on the right. From the pillows to my feet on the left

Well the last time I shared a bed with someone I didn't hear any complaints about me being on his side of the bed and I did keep asking if he was ok, and not going to fall off.
He did spend his fair share of time on my side too. :yeees:

Though neither of us were trying to sleep, so it was ALL good!! : :

I'm surprised no one else has said it yet - but I sleep on the 'drivers' side.

Dunno if my bed has a side...... it's a king single.
I also have a larger sized bed, but find it too uncomfortable & prefer the smaller one.
Apart from that, I don't have to worry about someone else taking sides!!

For those married with kids, you'll find that most women end up sleeping on the side closest to the door.....closer to the babies when they wake up.

Good theory anyway.


(I'm on the right........farthest away from the door)
