Sex is Beautiful.

[IzzyPop]

I know sperm is in the testes. The liquid in the prostate is sperm which does have some sperm in it.

The main function of the prostate is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline (pH 7.29) fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that, along with spermatozoa, constitutes sperm.

Yeah. Read that sentence again. The prostate stores and secretes seminal fluid. Not sperm. Seminal fluid makes up around 10-30% of sperm. They are not the same.

I already know that..

You have said that the prostate dosen't store any sperm in it. you are wrong because the seminal fluid that it stores has a percentage of sperm in it. The prostate isn't void of all sperm as you claimed..

And there are studies that is does show an increase risk of prostate cancer. Because the prostate cannot function the way its suppossed to anymore.

Im sorry to say, but you were in the heat of infatuation. Love dosen't "break up" or "not work out". Love goes through the hardest of trials without giving up. A person who truely loves someone dose't run away when things get tough or something dosen't work out.

He still cares about them deeply. It's still love.. .. as far as I'm concerned Love is not money in the bank. It is endless, not restricted it can't be bound down to rules and regulations, it's experienced and thats all their is to it.

You have that backwards. sperm contains seminal fluid, seminal fluid does not contain sperm. There is no sperm or sperm stored in the prostate. That is not it's function. It creates and stores seminal fluid. Seminal fluid is an ingredient of sperm, but it is not sperm. Your body does not keep a supply of sperm ready to go. It makes it to order, so to speak. You can argue this all you want to. Basic biology states you are wrong. This is a pretty good example as to why sexual education needs to be taught in school. If it were left to the parents, kids would be all kinds of wrong.

And there are studies that is does show an increase risk of prostate cancer. Because the prostate cannot function the way its suppossed to anymore.

And there are studies that show there is no correlation. If you read the articles I linked to, one of the repeating points is that while some studies do show a slight increase, they cannot find a biological reason for why a vasectomy might raise cancer rates. Add those two together (the slight increase and no biological basis) and most doctors think the studies show nothing more than statistical variance.

I wonder if the studies that show a slight increase in cancer take in the lower activity that may be going on, and if they correlated it.

I've heard on the radio (sorry no link) that release helps the prostate, so if there is less action, can that also cause the increase in the rate ?

One of the articles did mention that the studies that do show a correlation may be caused by other factors. It just didn't say what other factors.


And, yes, I have heard that men concerned about prostate health should touch or have sex at least once a week for better prostate health. If that were an average, with just the first suggestion alone, I should be good until around age 150 or so...

A vasectomy constitutues a grave matter because it is deliberate sterlization which is contrary to natural law.

according to natural law, males of a particular species often kill the offspring of other males to ensure his own families' wellbeing. so according to natural law, go kill your friends babies.

also natural law doesnt include living in houses, driving cars, wearing clothes, etc. so if you wish to live only by natural law, it would be best to give up these distractions. or, accept the fact that as the human race progresses it makes changes to those natural laws, and the laws themselve become obsolete.

Im sorry to say, but you were in the heat of infatuation. Love dosen't "break up" or "not work out". Love goes through the hardest of trials without giving up. A person who truely loves someone dose't run away when things get tough or something dosen't work out.

im sorry but you make far too many sweeping generalizations. i dont know of many people who would say their first love was the only partner of their life.

Nice to know you're psychic. Love can sometimes not work out for any number of reasons. I also never said it was true love, obviously it wasnt if we arent still together. But we DID love each other when we had sex and that does not make it qualify as "empty" or "soulless" by any measure

 

[gwenmead]

I might not have mentioned in my earlier post that sex with arrogant misogynists isn't great. At least, I don't recommend it. Just thought I'd add that, for the record.

Sex with a loving, equalitarian partner, however, rocks my world.

 

[allhart]

Sex is a bonus in love ,but love isn't always easy or does it always feel good . When you love someone. You stay with them in the worst of times you get through the bad times together.Some people in their relationships they us divorce as black mail . There not even able to have a health argument. They tell you , You say that again or will get a divorce.

 

[bammertheblue]

I don't agree. Even if you love someone, there are some times when you just can't stay with them. I love my partner, but there are things he could do (rape me, beat me, harm me-- not that he would, but this is just an example) that would cause me to leave him. I love myself and respect myself enough to take care of myself and not put up with unacceptable behaviour. Sticking together through hard times is great, but some acts are unforgivable. That's why you can't paint with such a broad brush.
And actually, I don't see anything wrong with getting a divorce just because you've fallen out of love. Is it better to be in a miserable, loveless relationship, or to suck it up and get divorced? I'd much rather be divorced and single than stuck in a living hell.

I agree with rape ,beating get out, but falling out of love i do not. The marriage covenant also involves God as well. You know you can't divorce other family members like your mom ,dad ,brothers ,sister when you aren't happy with the relationship. For life they are who they are. So we need to take this in account before we get married Who they are for we do have that choice to get to know them before we marry. One of Gods principle, of many.

 

[bammertheblue]

No, you can't technically divorce your parents or siblings, because you haven't entered into a contract with them in the way you have in marriage. You're born with family, but marriage is, in the end, a legal contract. (As well as a religious one, if you're so inclined, but that is a perspective I'm just not able to speak to since I'm a non religious person.)
But in extreme cases, you can emancipate yourself or estrange yourself from family members, either legally (in case of a minor) or simply by refusing to have anything to do with them. In the latter case, it's not really that hard in my opinion. I've been estranged from my "father" for almost 5 years now. We just stopped talking to each other, and honestly, I'm glad.
Isn't it better for a couple to admit that they've fallen out of love, split up, and look for love again? I think it is. It's the choice between being miserable and perhaps being happy again!

I don't follow religion. I follow Jesus Christ. Did you know with Jesus the pharisees were religious and they crucified him. Well as far as the principle's God shares with me and the personal experience with the shattered home lives of divorced family's that are effected generational. I agree to disagree.There is some truth in what you say , but there is a greater truth in what I'm saying as well.May God find his way into your life. God bless you.

 

[bammertheblue]

So you're religious and believe in Jesus, but...you don't follow religion? I don't understand. Last I checked, Christianity was a religion.

Anyway, yes, divorce can suck, but it can also be a good, needed thing. (But like any other major life choice, it's still not something to be entered into lightly, of course.)
I would have been much, much happier if my parents had divorced when I was young. My partner's adult children are also a million times happier and better off since his separation from his ex-wife. My uncle is twice divorced and now married to the love of his life. So that's my experience. The point I'm trying to make is that everyone's situation is different. What might be right for one person could be wrong for another.

When you have a personal relationship do you call that religion. Yes there are principles. Which we are discussing one right now. A thought or two. You wake in the mornin you don't want to go to work.A true feeling,but is it the right feeling to follow. If you do more than a couple of days you will have a cost to pay. Right? Life is like driving you have speed limits, one ways, stop signs ect. You have choices to make and the rules to follow or break ,but never the less you still have choices. The bible is in the same way tells you what cost and plus you have the freedom.You will pay if you chose other than what the bible said ,but there is still a personal relationship other than the principles. (Jesus Christ )A true friend that never lets you down.

I'm still not sure I'm following you. Are you talking about my relationship with my partner? Because no, that's not a religion, it's a love and a friendship.

If I woke up and just didn't show up for work, that would hurt my coworkers and customers. So no, I don't think that would be the right thing to do. On the other hand, if I woke up sick, it would be right to call in. I might need the money, but I don't want to make anyone else sick.
Back to the marriage/divorce question-- sometimes divorce is the better choice. Staying in a harmful marriage is, well, harmful. Leaving that marriage can be beneficial, healthy, and much better than staying just because of some arbitrary rules.

The bible is in the same way tells you what cost and plus you have the freedom.You will pay if you chose other than what the bible said ,but there is still a personal relationship other than the principles. (Jesus Christ )A true friend that never lets you down.

Okay, that's your belief, not mine, but thank you for explaining.
