A German couple who went to a fertility clinic after eight years of marriage have found out why they are still childless - they weren't having sex.
The University Clinic of Lubek said they had never heard of a case like it after examining the couple who went to see them last month for fertility tests.
Doctors subjected them to a series of examinations and found they were both apparently fertile, and should have had no trouble conceiving.
A clinic spokesman said: "When we asked them how often they had had sex, they looked blank, and said: "What do you mean?".
"We are not talking retarded people here, but a couple who were brought up in a religious environment who were simply unaware, after eight years of marriage, of the physical requirements necessary to procreate."
The 30-year-old wife and her 36-year-old husband are now being given sex therapy lessons while the university clinic undertakes a study to try to find out if there are more couples with a similar lack of sex education.

Are all those "couples"clamoring to get married in Massachusetts going to have the same problem..?
To: Blood of Tyrants
On thinking about it, maybe the clinic should have said, "Hmm. No idea."

Nailed this one on the head!

OBVIOUSLY not farm people.
It's weird, but some people never do get told.
I know personally of one girl who got pregnant. Her mother had told her , "Never sleep with a boy!"
So she was all bewildered when she got pregnant, because , "We never fell asleep!"

I suspect that they will be having a similar one. Hint to lesbians and butt pirates: It tales ONE OF EACH TYPE to conceive. (One male and one female, because I know you are confused.)

If everybody's parts are working correctly, do you really need further instruction?

This story rates right up there with the ones where the lady has a stomach ache, goes to the bathroom and drops a 9 pound baby, and swears she didn't know she was pregnant.

Reminds me of the joke about the guy who said that he never slept with his cousin. They had sex, but they never slept together.

This article sums up my philosophy for life:
"When all else fails, have sex."
So far, it has worked for every challenge I have ever had in my life.
