No Advantage To Preserving Sperm

Abstaining From Sex May Actually Damage Sperm
POSTED: 9:10 a.m. EDT June 30, 2003


MADRID, Spain -- It's long been thought that couples could improve their chances of conceiving by abstaining from sex to save sperm for the woman's most fertile time of the month.

But a new study says there's little value in abstaining and it could make the sperm perform worse than if the couple hadn't abstained.

Scientists from Soroka University and Ben-Gurion University in Israel tested more than 7,200 semen samples from men about 6,000 men who had abstained from sex for up to two weeks. The semen was tested for volume, sperm concentration and shape, and the percentage and total count of active sperm.

They found that men with low sperm counts can significantly reduce sperm quality by holding back for longer than a day or two. The researchers said that while the volume of semen increased up to 11 to 14 days of abstinence, whatever the sperm count was, the shape and form of the sperm gradually deteriorated. . . .

You know I'm kidding...

So ... all those stories where the young 18 year old teenage unloads his huge wad of 'potent sperm' because, of course, he has never come before in his life were lies?

THEY SAID THEY WERE TRUE STORIES!!!

Maybe those little sperms should be flagellated to perform better.

Absense not abstinance

There is research that shows that there is an innate mechanism thet works with a settled couple which is designed to overcome the possibility that someone else has deposit sperm in the woman. Normally the system works using a fill & top up mechanism whereby the male leaves one large deposit then tops up ciotus by coitus. If one partner is away for a couple of days the system autonomically determines that a third party may have left a deposit: consequently the male leaves an extra large deposit - so a couple of nights at mother's just before ovulation (hand job to keep the little fellows healthy) and then a really good session on her return may develop a larger payload.

Incidentally, it may well be this same mechanism thay encourages men to watch their wives being fucked by strangers before having sex themselves: the underlying "flush out the other guy" mechanism may then lead to a more intense orgasm.

Masturbation protects against prostate cancer:
Study Last Updated Thu, 17 Jul 2003 12:36:41

LONDON - A new study suggests frequent masturbation by men in their 20s provides protection against prostate cancer later in life.

Scientists in Australia determined that men in their 20s who ejaculated more than five times a week were a third less likely to develop aggressive prostate cancer later in life.

The study suggests ejaculation by means of masturbation provides better protection than ejaculation in sexual intercourse because men can pick up infections from intercourse that actually increase the risk of getting prostate cancer.

The Australian team was headed by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council of Victoria in Melbourne.

The team asked 1,079 men with prostate cancer to detail their sexual habits. The responses were compared with those of 1,259 healthy men.

The team concluded that the more men between the ages of 20 and 50 masturbate, the less likely they are to develop prostate cancer. The study emphasizes that this is especially so for men in their 20s.

"The more you flush the ducts out, the less there is to hang around and damage the cells that line them," Giles said in New Scientist magazine.

"Masturbation is part of people's sexual repertoire," said Anthony Smith, deputy director of the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University in Melbourne. "If these findings hold up, then it's perfectly reasonable that men should be encouraged to masturbate."

Dear Quaz,
Leave it to the Australians to use pseudoscience to rationalize sheep fucking. I don't know why they're so sensitive about it, because everybody know they do it.

You've heard what they say about South Africans, of course.

Yes, and of course, I believe it.

Dear Quaz,
Yes. I saw that happen once in Mexico City. A toro didn't take the fake, and he caught up with the toreador who was trying to make it over the fence. Ferdinand the Impaler.

Which only goes to prove that one must show some discretion about where one is overtaken with horniness.
