Yea, too bad he was contradicted and the fantasies all nullified each other.

Meanwhile back in reality, I keep myself in such excellent health, I regularly donate to the Red Cross the rare type of blood (CMV-) that keeps folks like him alive.
Nah, I don't hate, I'll be going in to give some more life soon. ;)

So what is in sperm?
[Researchers] found ingredients in semen that include mood enhancers like estrone, cortisol, prolactin, oxytocin, and serotonin; a sleep enhancer, melatonin; and of course, sperm, which makes up only 1%-5%. Delivering these compounds into the richly vascularized vagina also turns out to have major salutary effects for the recipient. Female college students having unprotected sex were significantly less depressed than were those whose partners used condoms.

Thank goodness for a monogamous relationship, eh?

Good point. I am sure without the wriggly tails you wouldn't be as happy.

In that case, have the man use a feather to tickle the woman during ejaculation.
Bah!

I wonder about this study and wigglers; my man has been snipped since before we were dating, and he makes me the most happy. ;)

I'm not a big cookie or cake eating guy. But yes, she bakes and usually takes the stuff to work.

I've had so many problems with hormone-based birth control since losing an ovary that I just recently made the decision, with my OB/GYN surgeon's advice and participation of my partner, to put birth control responsibility on him going forward, while my body recovers from 20+ years of artificial hormones.

I found sex with a condom to be quite satisfying and free of many stresses that sex without a condom was creating for me - so I'd have to say in my experience, the positives of protected sex outweigh the negatives of exposure to semen.

As a significant bonus, I didn't have to worry about 'the wet spot' following sex.

*As a footnote, I'd like to add that I've had sex with condoms before - because I did try to be smart about sex in my youth; sadly, I admit, I often was not - and from that experience I can say that the stress of fear about unwanted pregnancy or STDs far outweighed any purported benefits from exposure to sperm.

I don't doubt, however, that sperm meeting vagina has a positive biological benefit in the human female. Absent all social constructs, the ultimate purpose of heterosexual coupling between homo sapiens is reproduction. It makes absolute sense that evolution would have maximized all beneficial aspects of that act in furtherance of the ultimate goal. A happier female, after all, is less likely to commit infanticide.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Well, don't confuse sperm with semen. My partner ejaculates, as most men with sealed vasa deferentia do; it just doesn't contain any spermatozoa.

I know what a vasectomy is, loCA. Please don't feel the need to condescend, m'kay?

For fans of Evolution, I submit the following line of questioning?

What is the evolutionary purpose (or explanation) of the profound differences between sex in humans and sex in all other mammals?

There is no indication that any animals - particularly females - get any enjoyment whatsoever out of copulation. The males are merely following an urge (not unlike hunger), and the females are allowing themselves to be used in order to alleviate an irritation. Certainly there is nothing even approaching the human orgasm in the animal kingdom - again, particularly among the females, but also in male mammals.

We are the only animal that copulates, naturally, in the face to face position. There is nothing in the animal kingdom to parallel the various non-genital manifestations of arousal that human females experience/show. No other animal has a clitoris or a "G-spot" or anything even approaching either of them.

Just one of many, many things that cannot be explained by (or actually contradict what would be expected by) Evolution theory.

1. Dolphins and Bonobos have sex for pleasure.

2. I don't naturally have face to face sex.
Bah!

I don't know but the latter is illegal in most jurisdictions. Or was that chickens in Georgia I'm thinking of?

As for those bonobos, keep the damn things out of the water and the dolphins will go back to normal

Just one of many, many things that cannot be explained by (or actually contradict what would be expected by) Evolution theory.

The clitoris (i /ˈklɪtərɪs/, i /klɪˈtɔərɪs/ or UK /ˈklaɪtɒrɪs/) is a sexual organ that is present only in female mammals. In humans, the visible button-like portion is located near the anterior junction of the labia minora, above the opening of the urethra and vagina. Unlike the penis, which is homologous to the clitoris, the clitoris does not contain the distal portion of the urethra. The only known exception to this is in the Spotted Hyena. In this species, the urogenital system is unique in that the female urinates, mates and gives birth via an enlarged, erectile clitoris, known as a pseudo-penis

Of course not, BSG the article doesn't mention whether sterilized men were included in this study, but a few posters have already speculated that 'the wigglers' were what might have made woman 'happier'. It may have started out a jest, but others continued to use 'sperm', when the study stated 'semen'.

Otters, whales, and dolphins all normally have sex 'face to face' just to name a few obvious ones. Most birds 'mount' like quadrupeds but IIR some hawks and eagles mate face to face as well; I'll have to check that.

Humans 'normally' have sex both face to face and in the 'beast with two backs' position(s).


You just pull this out of your ass, right?
