Shape Up For The Sperm Race

Some while ago Victor M. Amela interviewed John Aitken, world authority of human semen. Aitken explained several things rather interesting: A smoker's semen quintuples the possibility of the engendered baby developing cancer. The Industrialization and the intensive agriculture (pesticide, fertilizers) results in the quality of the semen to decrease. Although sterility affects both men and women, it traumatizes men more. On reaching adulthood, babies born in industrial zones and breast-fed develop higher possibility of becoming sterile or with inferior quality semen than those bottled-fed babies; because the maternal milk transmits estrogens. The Danish has the worst quality amongst the Europeans. He added that a diet rich in antioxidant: vitamin E and C can minimize the damage done to the sperms. With that knowledge and reading the review of the book of Sharon Moalem 'Como funciona el sexo' (How does sex work), the author also says quite interesting things, like feminine ejaculation for instance, which is more and more accepted in the scientific and medical fields. Going by the find of the study, only 10% of women ejaculate during climax but many don't 'want' to, because the initial sensation is similar to urinating, so they 'suppress' the urge during the process, same as when they wish to urinate but not yet found the right time or place to so. Also because they don't wish to do it in the presence of their bed companions in case they think they 'pee' in bed. Aitken is also of the opinion that certain type of pornography could improve the quality of the sperm. According to a study carried out in Australia, it showed that when a man watches pornographic film or magazines showing 2 men and a women in the sex act, the semen produced is significantly better quality than when he watched the images of only women. An expert in revolutionary biology, Leigh Simmons, one of the investigation team, put this down to " Men ejaculate more or better quality semen when the risk of spermatic competition is high.", being this nature of survival. Now that's interesting theory isn't it? The quality of Catalan semen (they didn't say Spanish) is apparently becoming worse and worse by the day (an excuse to promote pornography?), to the point that it's now a generalized problem. For years the natality in this country had decreased to an worrying level, and a couple of years ago, the government had exercised all sorts of encouraging remedies, mainly economic, like fixed payment to all families for their 1st baby (€600), monthly supplement to all children under 18, six weeks maternity leave with pay to mothers & 2 weeks for fathers, also with pay, etc. etc. Tags:competition,sperm
