“One in eleven men would be willing to go celibate for a month if it meant getting their hands on the new iPhone 5 two weeks early, according to a survey,” Bertan Budak reports for T3.
“That is the result of a poll conducted by RoxyPalace.com, which also found that 22% of the 800 men questioned were prepared to give up coffee for the same period, while 14% would go alcohol-free if it meant snagging Apple’s next-gen device ahead of its rumoured September 21 release date,” Budak reports. “In addition, 38% of respondents said they’d make a ‘significant sacrifice’ if it meant they didn’t have the queue for the popular handset.”

I’ve been married 11 years. I could do this.
I’ve seen that old hag you are banging, I don’t blame you.
It unhealthy to give up sex for more than a day, let alone a month.
Yes, one should always charge for it, no giving away.
How will you pay the rent?
I hear ya, I’ll join you.
Month? Easy.
How long would I have to give it up for a new Mac pro with thunderbolt?
I saw her. You could give it up for a year.
I want my coffee though.
They probably weren’t getting laid anyway.
I will have to see pictures of their wives to see how Apple iPhone crazy these men really are.
Why not? Sex is easy. Booze is easy. iPhone 5 two weeks early- priceless.
If you have the Booze, the Sex can be really easy. 😉
CBS Cares.
They are not holding it right.
Baboom!

Is this a survey of single or married men?
If its married men then it might be just an excuse.
Steve Ballmer’s given up sex entirely.
He hasn’t found the right BEAST that can take him on. Water Bufallo comes close. lol
lol
I heard it didn’t come at all….
oooh!!!! Ballmer having mad maonkey sex! Must…….Gouge……..My……..mental………Eyes………,,,,.Out!!!!! Argh!
Most of you commenting on this site don’t have to worry. You’ve given up sex your whole life for the iPhone 5.
Mac users have better sex then Windows users and more often.
No viruses either! 🙂
Brilliant!!
Not me. My wife is HOT and can do things to me that most married men can only dream of getting! 😉
You are so right! She was fantastic!
Everyone else that was there agree? 😛
I don’t know, maybe it was because I was the 10th guy in a row, but it seemed like she was getting a little sloppy.
Jubei, where do you think your wife learned those skills?
That’s right.
You’re welcome.
LMAO!
So what do we care about a poll of 13-16 year old males?
Google employees gave that up a long time ago. When they get horny they simply search for porn on Google search and beat one off under their desk.
The respondents must not have been getting any on a regular basis. Like Richard Pryor said- the worst it can be is still pretty good.
Touching on a sore subject.
Meanwhile, in a poll of Android users:
72% said that they would refrain from touching their private areas with their Cheet-os stained fingers in their mom’s basements, for one month, if it meant they could get the next Android phone a week sooner than their friends, (‘Friends’ = Fandroid chat room regulars).
Are they asking about giving it up only with their wives or does that include mistresses (or small animals)?
I’ve been married for 27 years, I’ve given it up for a LOT longer than that!
(I’d put a wink face here but I’m not joking)
Haha, Other Steve. See the post right below yours. I feel your pain, sir. I truly do.
What are you guys whining about; I’ve been married 35 years and gone without for most of the last two. That friggin’ menopause is the scourge of mankind. I must admit though, the first 33 years were awesome.
Dude, I’m married. I already go for a month without sex. Gimme my iPhone early!!!
Ignore the topic. MDN is obviously speaking for themselfs.
MDN pisses me off quite a lot, especially when the inevitable rabid right wing politics cranks up- but not on this occasion. Great thread guys, thanks for it. We need to bring sex in more often 🙂
Those willing to do that already gave up sex years ago
By this measure, Phil should have sold me the iPhone 5 a few weeks before the original iPhone was introduced.
I’d give up my Apple products to get sex.
