What's wrong with saying "had sex with"? It's perfectly possible to have sex with someone without going to sleep, equally it's possible to sleep in someone else's company without having sex with them. The word "sex" is no longer embarrassing or shocking, so there is no longer any need for such a stupid euphemism.

Thank you for reading my rant

Always makes me laugh too, as sleep is usually the only thing that doesn't take place in bed.

I agree with you on this, and so will the 4 or 5 women I (actually) sleep with regularly.
Wouldn't it be more accurate to say "I stayed awake with her"?!

More commentary than rant. 0/10 I'm afraid. Maybe 0.5 for the word 'stupid'.

I can see I'm going to have to do better in future. There are a couple of subjects I feel strongly about, I will see what I can come up with.

You forgot to put 'uber' in front of gay.

Bet they sit up until the early hours, eating chocolate, giggling and talking about the boys that they fancy.

A friend of mine, after telling me that she and her partner were 'trying for a baby' was a bit shocked at my reply of 'so your shagging a lot then'
