Maybe the snowflakes will not be able to repoduce

quote:

Sperm counts in men from America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand have dropped by more than 50 percent in less than 40 years, researchers said on Tuesday.

They also said the rate of decline is not slowing. Both findings ? in a meta-analysis bringing together various studies ? pointed to a potential decline in male health and fertility.


quote:

“This study is an urgent wake-up call for researchers and health authorities around the world to investigate the causes of the sharp ongoing drop in sperm count,” said Hagai Levine, who co-led the work at the Hebrew University-Hadassah Braun School of Public Health and Community Medicine in Jerusalem.

The analysis did not explore reasons for the decline, but researchers said falling sperm counts have previously been linked to various factors such as exposure to certain chemicals and pesticides, smoking, stress and obesity.

stress and obesity.

i'd imagine obesity could have something to do with it

the feminization of society probably has a part in it

streaming porn also may be the #1 factor

Feminism is to blame here. Men can't be men and boys can't learn to become men. Men are becoming more feminine this lower sperm counts.

If any pretty ladies want to test this theory, I can prove it wrong.

Results may vary.

More specifically, sedentary lifestyle has been linked strongly to a decreased sperm count. This isn't really shocking considering how life has changed over the years. More of the developed world sits behind a desk for a living than ever before.

To be fair, many chemicals that we are routinely exposed to can act as endocrine disrupters at high enough concentrations. One of the most studied symptoms being changes to reproductive fitness and expression of opposite gender sex characteristics.

To simplify: we have too many low test betas and not enough alphas

Obesity, sedentary lifestyle, poor nutrition, lack of sleep, and porn.

I blame all the bull shite the government allows BigAgra to put in our food. It is just a coincidence that every dude over 40 has "low T".
