"While sperm count is an imperfect proxy for fertility, SC and TSC are closely linked to fertility chances (Guzick et al., 2001). The relationship between SC and time to conception is nonlinear. Thus, past a threshold of 4050 million/ml, a higher SC does not necessarily imply a higher probability of conception. On the other hand, below that threshold, the probability of conception drops off rapidly as SC declines (Bonde et al., 1998). On a population level, the drop in mean SC from 104 to 49 million/ml that we report here implies a substantial increase in the proportion of men with delayed time to conception. Thus, SC provides the most stable and reliable measurement for comparisons within and among populations and over time." So, a ~50% decrease since the 1970s (~1% per year) and 49 million/ml is at the upper limit of the threshold of not mattering, which means we have a good 10 years before this is an issue? Plenty of time to fix it! --- http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk284/MrCool812/MrCool812v3.jpg http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk284/MrCool812/dunce.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

I got interested in looking up the global birth rate over time, but I seem to only be coming up with fertility rate charts...like, if a larger amount of women exist, but are having less children, the birth rate could stay the same or increase while the fertility rate goes down, right??? I'd assume the global birth rate is going up since we're still experiencing population increase as opposed to a constant or decrease... --- girls like my fa ... Copied to Clipboard!

Like if I can still bone a bunch but only pump out 1-2 kids, that seems like a net gain. People also typically have 10 kids when they know 1-2 of them will die and they need a bunch of 'lil workers.

Our environment has caused our balls to become more efficient, allowing us to spend more energy doing the important things like figuring out how to regulate microplastics through our body. We got these vestigial organs sitting around, anyway, so they may as well repurpose themselves and start contributing something instead of taking up space. --- http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk284/MrCool812/MrCool812v3.jpg http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk284/MrCool812/dunce.jpg ...
