An adult bed comprising: a base providing a first area for receiving a mattress and retaining the mattress in a substantially fixed position; a framework configured and arranged to be capable of suspending the weight of an adult human above the first area, the framework comprising members in a second area that is about three and a half feet to about five feet above a top of the first area, the members spaced to provide unobstructed openings above the first area, each opening sized adequately to permit a 200 pound adult human to stand on the first area and extend his or her torso through the opening between the members; and a support extending upward from the base and connected to the base below the first area for receiving a mattress suspending the framework and configured and arranged to be capable of suspending the framework with the framework suspending the weight of a 200 pound adult human engaging in sexual activity with another adult human without permanent deformation of the support and framework. 2. The bed of claim 1 wherein one of the openings includes unobstructed space in the shape of an ellipse having axes aligned in generally coplanar relationship to the framework and the ellipse has a major axis of at least about 22 inches and a minor axis of at least about 10 inches. 3. The bed of claim 2 wherein one of the unobstructed openings includes a space in the shape of an ellipse having axes oriented in generally coplanar relationship to the framework and the ellipse has a major axis of at least about 24 inches a minor axis of at least about 12 inches. 4. The bed of claim 3 wherein at least one of the members is constructed having a portion without angular edges. 5. A framework for a bed, the framework configured and arranged to be capable of suspending the weight of an adult human above a bed and configured to be attached over the bed to provide openings of sufficient size to permit a 200 pound adult human to stand on the bed and extend his or her torso through openings between members of the framework and support the weight of a 200 pound adult human engaging in sexual activity with another adult human without permanent deformation of the framework, the framework including a plurality of plates extending outward from corners of the framework configured to attach to bedposts. 6. An adult bed comprising: a base providing a first area for receiving a mattress and retaining the mattress so that the mattress has a top at a first level; a support connected to the base below the first area for receiving a mattress extending upwardly above the base to a height above the first level; and a framework of members supported by the support; wherein the members of the framework are spaced about three and a half feet to about five feet above the first level, and the members are spaced apart from one another sufficiently to provide openings in the framework large enough for a 200 pound adult human to stand on the first level and extend his or her torso through the openings between members of the framework; and the support and framework are stout enough to support the weight of a 200 pound adult human suspended from the framework and engaging in sexual activity with another adult human without permanent deformation of the support and framework. 7.
