At the risk of the saddest and creepiest derail ever: I don't think the original intention (as per an interview with D.C. Fontana that I once read) was every seven years exclusively, just that it became mandatory at that point.

Fuck or die. Literally.
I seem to remember long ago reading an article or story in a Playboy from 1985 or 1986 wherein the author mused upon the differences in human life if we as a species still hat mating seasons & went into heat twice a year. What I recall with most clarity is how he posited the scenario of "imagine a busload of high school football players passing by a convent. What sort of chaos would ensue with nuns in heat? Would we even HAVE nuns?"

*The indication seemed to be that Sarek died at a ripe, but disappointing age. That is that he should have had years left if he hadn't been sick.
*There is a Monty Python joke in there...."but we've only had sex 28 times...."
*Let's stay clear of "nuns in heat", or at least I really, really, urge you to Shik.

Ah... yeah let's stay away from the nuns in heat and how much sex we've had.
