Sex Cell Phone Use Tied to Poorer Semen Quality
posted by on February 7 at 16:04 PM
According to a new study…
In a study of 361 men seen at their infertility clinic, researchers at the Cleveland Clinic found an association between the patients’ cell phone use and their sperm quality.On average, the more hours the men spent on their cell phones each day, the lower their sperm count and the greater their percentage of abnormal sperm.
No word on the impact of cell phone use on fragrance, mouth feel, finish, or aftertaste.
gross followup commentary.
Guess you'll have to conduct that study yourself. Hey, maybe you could get federal funding for it.
semen is so gross i don't even like jerking off.
What exactly is "abnormal sperm"? Are we talking 2-3 tails? More ovary penetrating power...?
Personally, I find it distracting if they try to talk on a cell phone while they're doing me.
Maybe it's just me, but seriously, I think we should all try to enjoy it - or at least appear to - if we're going down on our partner ...
Its called birth control, papal approved no less
"...the more HOURS the men spent on their cell phones each day..."
I don't think I've ever spent hours on the cell phone in any one day, even when producing a film.
Correlation does not imply causation. Maybe the guys spending hours on their cell phone have high-stress careers and are chronically sleep deprived?
Good point, lostboy. Let's do a scientifically-designed study ...
Should be a headline in the onion:
"Study of confounding factors hampered by confounding factors"
Does this study apply to text messaging, as well?
I'm willing to bet the type of people who use their cell phones a lot are the same types of people who, you know, are desperately trying to compensate for other... ahem... deficiencies.
This means that the US Navy should immediately BAN all cellphones from serving personnel on all US ships. We cannot afford a drop in the quality of the nations semen! (sic)
Ok, FINISH? Ya lost me.
Damn! Lostboy beat me to it.
If cell phone use makes semen weak, then the world decrease in pirates is making the planet hotter.
How about a cross between semen and The Pepsi Challenge?
I am with @8 and @9. This study is useless. The men self-selected. Come on, they were already going to a fertility clinic. It is not really a stretch to suspect that their semen quality is going to be low to begin with.
Once again sensationalism wins over actual science. Meh.
This doesn't bode well for my radioactive children's super powers.
What kind of super suit would "Captain Speed-Dial" wear do you think?
I don't ever again want to read a sentence about semen that has the words "mouth feel" in it. BLARG!
Dan, you should really put together a group of sommeliers for that kind of study.
