Recently, sociologists have been puzzling against a new trend, not just in
the elderly but in younger couples as well: sleep divorce. Yep,
couples who co-habit do not necessarily sleep in the same bed, but will often have
separate bedrooms altogether. New sense of privacy aside, I think I might
have some insight into this.
As an avid youtuber on all kinds of topics, one thing that has come to my
notice is the phenomenon - in larger cities - of what I can only call 'bedroomization'.
An older building is remodeled and the landlord will sacrifice common space in the
unit and create more bedrooms (and higher asking rents). See below for a prime
example in NYC.
So one likes music, and the other watches the tube, both have desks and work on Zoom.
There you have it!!
