OVERTORNEA, SWEDEN — A small town Swedish politician proposed this week to allow workers an one-hour paid break during the day to go home and get some afternoon delight. <br /> <br />Per-Erik Muskos of the Social Democratic party made the proposal in his town of 2,000 people as a way to promote well-being and make some babies, Aftonbladet reported. <br /> <br />“It’s about having better relationships,” Muskos told the AFP. “There are studies that show sex is healthy.” <br /> <br />“When sex is also an excellent form of exercise with documented positive effects on well-being, the municipality should kill two birds with one stone and encourage employees to use their fitness hour to go home and have sex with their partner,” Muskos told Aftonbladet. <br /> <br />Muskos feels that couples don’t get enough quality time together especially with the everyday stresses of things like work and raising kids. <br /> <br />He may be onto something. Sex has been proven to lower blood pressure, help with sleep, prevent colds and even help with hiccups, according to Vice.
