For the meager sum of $2million in grant money, I’ll publish all my data that teenagers can make you want to to never breed again.

Thus...Households with 5 kids and 5 different daddies.
Sweet!!

There is no comparison to the joy of having a little one of your own to love versus the fake, very temporary and artifical thrill of flirting at a bar.
Even comparing the two is like comparing the peak of some cheap porno centerfold with the real thing from the woman you love.

that’s what Viagra is for, George Bush decided Medicare should be sure a man never has to experience that ‘medical’ condition.

Because it couldn’t possibly be that men can put aside temptation and make a conscious decision to be faithful to their wifes and to their vows before a holy God. Nah.../s

I would think that a father would need more testosterone in order to go out and compete in the world job market to bring in income to provide for his family. Not less. A father/husband doesn’t stray, not because of testosterone levels, but because he chooses to love his wife and stay faithful.

Puh-leeze. Those of us with ten children are proof that some men continue functioning just fine.

“Scientists have discovered fatherhood can halve testosterone levels and stop men from straying.”
Having a woman that just went through childbirth breaking your hand and making you sit next to a crib for 72 hrs, well, it tends to do that.

So you’re saying that making a conscious decision lowers testosterone? Interesting.

Gives new meaning to “pump it up”.
To: SanFranDan
Or... how bout this. Having children makes a women less accessible for sex. Thus husbands with kids have less sex, and as a man has less sex, his testosterone drops. Same for a guy who helps more, even he is less able to have sex due to exhaustion. Less sex = Less Testosterone.
What was it they said about correlation and causation? Dummies..

Some men are just less virile than others. I’m sure it’s not my fault ...

I’d put my money on exhaustion.
I can’t keep up with mine. I get exhausted and just want to sleep.
