I think the idea was that the resources used to make sperm were being diverted from other, "stop the body from aging" parts. True, sperm are always dying and being replaced, but at a slower rate if they're not constantly being used.
And if, biologicaly, our main aim in life is to spread our sead, then the body only needs to keep going until it's done that. Once we've made the white wee wee, then we can die, our purposes fulfilled.
I would look into this, but I really can't be arsed.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Psyliam: "Once we've made the white wee wee, then we can die, our purposes fulfilled."
To dignify this thread with a little sociological taint, that is basically the primary reason warfaring armies have been in need of brothels and prostitution even to this day. A primitive, psychological need (in males predominantly) to further our DNA before the end, sort of a crash-course in caveman therapy. It doesn't justify sexual warcrimes or child prostitution in any way, but the phenomenon is there all the same.
To make a parallel to Bush, I guess his administration neatly sweeps this phenomenon, when it concerns two males needing comfort in battle (in the navy?), under the rug as "something that must be", but officially wants to condemn any attempt to make a bond official (current topic).
Of course, discussing the separation between "spontaneous prison/military-sex" and "same-gender marriages" would take this thread another step into the taboo-zone (Nuh-Nih-Nuh-Nih-Nuh-Nih-Nuh-Nih).
Ball's in your court.

Actually, I think it's more of an "if we can't see it happening with our own eyes, it isn't really there, la-la-la, I'm not listening..." sort of mindset.

Well, not THAT big a leap: reproduction through meosis and churning out billions of little gametes non-stop IS an energy-intensive business, you know. Do not underestimate the biological requirements to keep your white wee wee coming. B)

If I have to sacrifice the last five years of my life in order to harness the pearl jam, then so be it. I believe the hormonal activities and exercise the male body goes through normally is healthier than building yourself up to some sort of "Bruce Lee" anti-ejaculator.
I think of it in the same sense that blood donation keeps the bone marrow healthy and producing. And I take every chinese age-old health tip with a pinch of salt, such as Never drink cold water (bad for the Chi), Never drink and eat at the same time and always Consume 2 lbs. of tiger penis each sunday in order to live forever.
Okay with the acupuncture/acupressure and the low-fat food, but drawing up iron-hard diets with sea urchin and sea grass and snakes 'n shit, believing that this is the sole reason you can preserve health and libido until you're 80 (along with aforementioned tiger penis), that's like sitting in a tree and yelling to keep the lions away. "But there are no lions here!" "-You see??? It works!!!"
Not that Bush's libido wouldn't be helped by a pinch of tiger penis now and then, though just as a placebo.

Am I the only one here that is mildly discomforted by the fact that Nim is concerned about Bush's libido...or heck, the fact that Nim even knows what state its in?

I believe that there may be a relationship between Bush's mojo and the war against terror. I believe that this...libido holds for each and every one of us, the very meaning of our lives.
Or! , I might just be talking out of my behind. That's the thing with Nim, you never know for sure.

To make a bold leap back to the original topic...
I wonder what Bush is going to have to say, now that his own church has said it's okay to be gay, even if you're a church pastor.

We appreciate your concern. It is noted and stupid.

Please be sure to read the entire article, including the third paragraph from the bottom. Most news sources completely miss that, and also miss the point of the jury thing in the first place.
