For some people, it's important to pay attention when the birds and the bees are discussed.
Take the case of a German couple who sought help from a fertility clinic after eight years of no success having children.
The only problem was, they weren't having sex.
According to Ananova, officials at the University Clinic of Lubek said they'd never heard of a similar case after examining the couple during fertility tests last month.
After numerous examinations, doctors found both husband and wife to be fertile, and should have had little trouble in conception.
"When we asked them how often they had had sex, they looked blank, and said, 'What do you mean?'" a clinic spokesman said, according to the report.
"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 husband, 36, and his 30-year-old wife are now said to be undergoing sex-therapy lessons while the university clinic tries embarks on a study to determine the extent of other couples with similar circumstances.
Or ... (I heard this one on the playground 45 years ago)
A guy gets married and phones his father from the honeymoon suite asking "what do I do"? His dad says shyly "take the hardest thing you've got and put in where she goes to the bathroom".
A day later the dad asks "Well, how'd it go son"? The son said " well, I was sure glad I had my bowling ball with me - but, it sure was hard getting it to go down that toilet"
bada bing :)
Because Ananova has the journalistic standards of the Weekly World News, minus the rigorous fact-checking.
Aw, come on, go for it! :-)
Geesh, happy hour and a tray of Nachos would cure this little problem. Talk about ignoring all of the SIGNS.
Religion has ruined these good people's lives, sadly, assuming this hard to believe story is true.
But they ARE retarded!
You're kidding me! I've had longer dry spells than even Ghandi!!
bttt
Any?
Don't worry. "Religion" is not going to hurt you this year. This story goes around every few years. It is becoming another urban legend.
Maybe they just need to watch an hour of this.
I've never been married. What Ghandi did when his wife was pregnant, I do not know.
"I hereby offer to tutor any women who need this lesson."
ANY women? You are a braver man than me.
Well, it bears saying that you can control yourself if you put your mind to it. Saying you cannot is admitting to some form of nymphomania, I would think.
You mean the place that she bleeds from??? EEEEEWWWWWWWWW!!!
"Saying you cannot is admitting to some form of nymphomania, I would think."
I've talked with a lot of guys personally. No one I know of can get by without some relief after two weeks, short of salt peter.
