    Sperm count in Western men plunges to record low as scientists blame chemicals in everyday products for crisis

    Sperm levels among Western men have plunged to a record low, new research reveals.

    It has fallen by more than 50% in 40 years – and is showing no signs of slowing down.

    The study did not examine causes but scientists believe the amount of ­chemicals used in everyday products, industry and farming may be behind the crisis.

    Researchers from the Hebrew University-Hadassah Braun School of Public Health and Community Medicine and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, screened 7,500 studies that took place between 1973 and 2011.

    Or...the cucking of the Western male is killing their sperm and turning them into impotent eunuchs. :wink:

    No petroleum based fertilizer. Crop rotation and crop diversity used to promote soil health instead. No petroleum based pesticides or herbicides. No hormones or antibiotics used in livestock.

    I don't care that much about GMOs, I think that is a little blown out of proportion.

    I could lend you one. Middle is smart but all over with what he's doing. Comes complete with a three year old and an ex with huge mental health issues. He isn't dating right now as he hasn't figured out how to get a mental health assessment on random people

    I always said my requirement for re-homing a child would be whether they could cook and clean. :) No freeloaders!

    Tell him online dating is a no-no. All the weirdos I have met have been online.

    Volunteer. At church, or the Legion, or at a food bank. That's where you meet nice people, and can figure out if they are nuts or not far earlier than having to go to the 'bathroom' in the restaurant and just continuing on out the back door. Sometimes the people aren't the dating type, but they might have daughters who they are perfectly willing to set up with a nice young man!
