This isn't an answer! And as I understand it, this happens whether you're married or not. A breakup/divorce over not sleeping on the couch (and probably the fight that lead to the banishment, but who doesn't have fights)? Let it be known, in the event that I am ever in another relationship, I will never make this request of my other, and will ask for reciprocation. It's really a silly notion when you think about it (or at least when I think about it)
Seriously, how is this enforced? No sex for a week? You're probably already in that position anyway, so why not get some good sleep while you're in the dog-house?

Unless you wanna sleep on the couch...
"You're sleeping on the couch tonight."
"Umm, No?"
