- saxmaster, on 07/25/2008, -4/+74I was a mistake.
- eyepatch100, on 07/25/2008, -3/+64Thank god it isn't any easier...
- fluidfoundation, on 07/25/2008, -1/+57Wrong hole.
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -5/+51Children of Men was a great movie.
- Rizzen, on 07/26/2008, -0/+31There is no wrong hole.
- honesttussey, on 07/26/2008, -0/+30Wow she is good at math.

"The human male releases about 66 million sperm during each encounter...since it takes only one sperm to make a baby, there are 59,999,999 extras along for the ride." - fluidfoundation, on 07/25/2008, -2/+31It might be if you're a hard drive manufacturer.
- antipoet, on 07/25/2008, -0/+27What am I missing? Isn't 66M minus one = 65,999,999?
- techblogLAT, on 07/25/2008, -0/+26A standing ovation for that headline.
- randyzaia, on 07/26/2008, -1/+25Well that clinches it - I'm going raw dog tonight.
- Zyzblargh, on 07/26/2008, -1/+25It's a shame people are so infertile that we've only managed to populate one lousy planet with 7 billion people.
- kakapu4u, on 07/26/2008, -5/+28Just let the chick be on top. Then it's impossible to become pregnant. Because of gravity.
- antipoet, on 07/25/2008, -1/+23I needed to read this article today. Though 66mil - 1 =/= 59,999,999. Math nazi here.
- PPCG4, on 07/26/2008, -3/+19Let's hope you don't put your idea into practice.
- serendipitously, on 07/26/2008, -1/+17Do you realise how much the incidence of severe antibodies IgG & IgA found on sperm has risen in the last 30 years? There are various causes of 'male infertility'. Some men can't produce sperm at all, although sperm can be extracted from their scrotum. That is curable. However when you have a very high percentage of antibody coated sperm, which can be in some instances 100%, sperm just CANNOT penetrate an egg. Sperm count in this scenario is totally irrelevant, as is morphology. There is speculation about the cause of this phenomenon and correlations, but no definitive answer. One theory is environmental carcinogens have caused this, as the sperm testes barrier (like the blood brain barrier) is supposed to be impermeable. I agree that the article isn't very comprehensive in indicating all of the different types of male infertility but it is well documented that over 50% of couples seeking infertility are doing so due to male infertility, ranging from DNA damage to sperm to azoospermia to severe male antibodies, the latter which was only previously found in men who had had surgical interventions, such as vasectomies.
- Crana, on 07/26/2008, -1/+16[Insert statement on how girls suck at math here]
- trestevenson, on 07/26/2008, -0/+15All I really got from this was that having a coil inserted in my nuts could increase my chances by 25%. I think I'll pass.
- Lucifugerising, on 07/26/2008, -2/+14Looks like I replied to the wrong statement.
regardless what I said still holds true - Karmavs, on 07/26/2008, -4/+16You’d think that after the first “surprise”; you’d learn.
- enzomedici, on 07/26/2008, -0/+11
Because we tell women of child bearing age 17-25 not to have kids and then we have a bunch of 35-45 year old women trying to get pregnant. Western society has ***** up values that don't jibe with biology. - homer420032003, on 07/26/2008, -0/+11Theres something really creepy about reading a story on sperm count and the lady's face looking at me
- defy, on 07/26/2008, -3/+12I don't think you got the whole "twins" thing.
- Drahkir, on 07/26/2008, -0/+9Shut your pie hole
- Lucifugerising, on 07/26/2008, -2/+11Teenagers ***** ALOT.
- inactive, on 07/26/2008, -6/+14GOOD! Who the ***** wants a kid? They just suck money out of your wallet and ***** all over the place. Then they are fun for 5-7 years then they bitch about how you suck(teen years), then they become an adult, ask for money then you get old, they ignore you.
WELCOME TO LIFE *****. If you really want a kid, save your vagina and adopt. - sinurgy, on 07/26/2008, -1/+8Right hole.
- andymadigan, on 07/26/2008, -0/+7Yes, scientific research is dangerous because it might cause teens be stupid.
Instead we should tell them that each and every time they have sex they *will* get pregnant, and then when they figure out that isn't true, they'll figure you're lying about everything else too.
You people are so stupid, so many people think they can convince teens to act a certain way by telling them ***** and hiding anything that doesn't support their view. By the time they reach puberty everyone knows there's an exception to every rule in nature, and trying to tell them otherwise just loses what little integrity you have. - Paulish, on 07/26/2008, -8/+15Making babies makes ME hard.
Ohhhh I just loves those test tube labs... - isntreal, on 07/26/2008, -1/+8Of all of those things excessive alcohol is probably the most relevant, funny that you label it that way. Ohhh sensationalist media
- TheAkolyte, on 07/26/2008, -1/+8Glory hole
- Codicier, on 07/26/2008, -1/+7China would like a word with you.
- frascellyboy273, on 07/26/2008, -1/+7a hole
- inactive, on 07/26/2008, -1/+7Actually pulling out is not a form of birth control at all. Sperm still gets out
- Smigge87, on 07/26/2008, -2/+8That's why practice makes perfect
- mCanada, on 07/26/2008, -2/+7Left hole
- diemunkiesdie, on 07/26/2008, -2/+7Theres a reason evolution hasn't made it easier to make chicks pregnant: So us men can keep "trying" to have a baby over and over and over! More sex=more happy, evolution works in mysterious ways!
- inactive, on 07/26/2008, -2/+7i dont think we need to encourage uncontrolled breeding, we do have a population problem, how long do you think it will take the rest of the world limites people to one child per couple, like china
- BitKid, on 07/26/2008, -2/+7You still are.
- TheXuu, on 07/26/2008, -0/+5if you are worried about the protien loss why dont you swallow it :P
- lolwutpear, on 07/26/2008, -2/+7i've never quite understood how that pre-coital lubrication is enough to impregnate a woman, yet a man with _only_ 20 million sperm per ejaculation is considered infertile. i'm not trying to deny it, it's just hard to wrap one's mind around.
- playwiththings, on 07/26/2008, -0/+4I'll save my gambling for the poker table. 15% or not I'd rather be standing with trojan-man versus mini-me any day.
- BrokenCircle, on 07/26/2008, -1/+5Almost... Almost... Done. Yeah, totally ***** creepy.
- dquan, on 07/26/2008, -3/+7I see what you did there.
- randyzaia, on 07/26/2008, -1/+5DON'T LOOK AT ME
- rgon, on 07/26/2008, -1/+5I thought it was because I smelled.
- benologist, on 07/26/2008, -3/+7It all comes down to how you define numbers. I believe drex8 uses his own system.
- scoottie, on 07/26/2008, -2/+6because you cant club a female and crag her back to your cave anymore
- tarmithius, on 07/26/2008, -1/+4I think sucking at it would wither away the count just a bit.
