Mobile phones wreaking havoc with sperm

I seem to remember, (photo memory anyone), a study which correlated sperm motility to heat.

It was reported that men who wore boxer style underwear had a more ventilated scrotal area and high sperm motility.

Conversely men who wore jockey shorts were less jocular, (Jock_error). ((pun for the day))

I wonder if a combining of the two data sets will provide some pregnant knowledge!

Any pics?

Since I'm too old to be having children now anyway, it's really not a problem.

Where do you guys normally put your cell phones when your not using them?

In your pants pocket?
Maybe that is the problem.
Did the study consider where the phones are when not in use but turned on?

BTW Some of these answers are pretty comical.

Kilts, anyone?

You self-centered person, you!

My four kids all agree I don't have this problem.

When I was a life guard on the Jersey Shore we were provided with white styrofoam pith helmets. There was a battery powered fan on top of the helmet and a cool breeze blew through the helmet!

I wish I could say that the hat was a "hair raising" experiene but we all thought that this item was not a "man thing!" so they were in the trash cans before 4th of July!

Maybe a air cooled cup might work. Kilt? Gotta be a "Braveheart" to wear one of them. I did run across of picture of Queen Elizabeth surrounded by her Scotish Guard. She was seated and so were the guards to the left and the right. The guard immediately to her right didn't know how to "sit like a lady" and did reveal that, "You don't wear underwear under a kilt!"

LOL!

This may simply indicate that the type of person willing to use a phone for 4 hours a day is the type of person with a naturally low sperm count.

Yes. A girl. ;)

Hah! I believe you when #6 kid shows up. : )

[Dead Corpse]

An aweful lot of "somehow", "maybe", and "might" in this article. Show me causation.

BTW... I don't even own a cell phone.

Sorry...won't happen. My wife shopped around and found me a great rate on a little urological procedure, it cleared that kid-production process right up.

It only cost us a couple bags of dog food, and I had to go to the clinic on the third Thursday of the month. I still don't know what that paper cone around my neck was all about...

[Oberon]

...oh...and it came with a free rabies shot.

[SoldierDad]

LOL! Hey, that kind of looks like the business end of that tool used to unclog toilets. :>
