I may have been incorrect on this point. The reason I said that the questions were not given was because there is not a PDF or some other form of the actual survey form with the possible choices.

However, the iVillage site does present a question and choices with each graphic and the inference is that these were precisely the questions asked. I have not made that assumption (unless I missed it somewhere that these were the actual questions asked). The answers, however, seem like the ones that the 2,000 respondents had to choose from.

So, in reply, I would point out that the question(s) presented:

"Which Would You Often Rather Do Than have Sex With Your Spouse"

That is not even close to the position you've taken with you hypothesized question. It is not and was not a yes/no question and there are a range of choices including "N/A-There's nothing I'd rather do."

But thank you for sharing anyway.
