Yeah, that’s a fair point. Getting better rest than your opponents certainly is a huge advantage, especially on the most important competition of all.
Similarly, what about the diets? Do some athletes bring personal chefs to cook food that they are familiar with? Or maybe bring tupperwares of precooked meals? It’d be extremely disappointing to have your Olympic dreams crumble due to a bad meal (or ten).
Such an insult to the work ethic of the Olympians. Sex with one or even zero people in a bed can be had by even average athletes. Don't even get me started on the abilities of the gymnasts.
Why do they care? Consulting adults can do as they please. Besides, if they wanted anti-sex beds, they don’t need cardboard, they just need LRC posters to ship their beds to the Olympics.
honestly, if I got it in my head that this is what they were trying to discuorage, I would find a like minded partner and f'k that thing right through the god damn floor boards,
This is a capitalistic scam. They are providing the athletes with an unacceptable free option so they must pay for reasonable accommodations on the local economy.
Its not as much about the sex as its about the sleep quality one doesn't get while sleeping on a tiny, flimsy bed. However the article did a great job with the angle of the story because we're all clicking on it and talking about it.
Agree. Heck, I'm sure I've slept in more comfortable beds in barrack rooms in my younger military days.
”The amorous Olympians won’t be able to lie on top of each other either, as the cardboard frames are reportedly designed to collapse under such a weight. …
However, it’s unlikely cardboard beds will stop the horny Olympians from fornicating, with one competitor claiming a hot tub orgy took place during one Games.“
