    The punchline logic is full of bear fertilizer. Many happily married couples have different sleeping habits and needs, the only sensible solution is separate beds and even bedrooms.

      Yes, but unfortunately this particular bear couple is having marital issues 😔

        Yeah, but it makes it sound like one thing goes hand-in-hand with the other.

          You could read into it or maybe just read it…

          I think every time I’ve heard about it it has been because there’s been issues in the marriage.

            Drag and drag’s dragon like to sleep in the same bed about half the time. We’re very happy with each other and we want to get married. Sleeping together is sometimes fun and sometimes annoying. Having two beds is just good sense.

                No, it’s caused by both of us being light sleepers with autism. We don’t have to accept every heteropatriarchal stereotype, like “you have to sleep in the same bed” in order to be happy. We’re capable of inventing our own path to happiness.

          I agree. If there was no link in the mind of the author, why would Mama Bear answer this to Baby Bear’s question?

          It would not surprise me if married couples who sleep in separate beds report, on average, less satisfaction with their marriages than those who share a bed…

          but any data on that, I’m didn’t check very hard.

          Also - glad folks pointed out separate sleeping arrangements can be entirely natural/beneficial.

          People with insomnia would strongly disagree with you 🙂

          You don’t know other people’s lives or challenges, people are a lot more unique than you may think. Maybe try considering there might be other perspectives because people live different lives than you do.

      Papa bear’s bed was very hard, Mama bear’s bed was very soft. They might just have incompatible mattress needs.
