"   Personally, I am not a fan of putting down sex as a wager. And not just because getting busy should be, ideally, spontaneous, but more because you never want sex to feel like something you have to do. Sadly, one couple found out the hard way that sex bets are bad news: When Keith Wiens lost while playing Wii with his wife, Lynn Kalmring, he was supposed to have sex as his &amp;quot;punishment.&amp;quot; Upon finding sex toys Kalmring had placed on his pillow, presumably to get the action started, he brushed them away, saying he was tired. She got angry, then violent, Wiens claims, and Wiens ended up shooting her in the face in what he called self-defense. (He is currently on trial facing second-degree murder charges.) Clearly, this is beyond tragic and there must have been other issues at work here for the situation to escalate as it did. But, it&amp;#039;s also a good reminder not to bet with sex\u2014or use it as any kind of tool to get what you want in your relationship, for that matter. Just let sex be sex, folks\u2014as in, fun and obligation-free. Want more from Natasha? Follow her on Twitter or find her on Facebook. Photo: Handout "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
