It's so true! Go to the right place you can get free condoms. Or at least after number 5 you think they would get a brain cell. Then again like a family I know, they reproduce to work the government for more money. Of course they still have nothing to show for it cause they buy stupid stuff and they're lazy. So people they know with more then them are just trying to out do them. Which means it's time to pop another baby out for even more government money.

I assume you mean the poverty women experience AFTER a divorce?  I am currently reading material covering this question in order to complete a correspondence course on the History of the Family in America from BYU.  From the text: Domestic Revolutions: A Social History of American Family Life*  Ch. 10 pg.216 Quoting from the topic, The Femininzation of Poverty\n   "Today families headed by women are four and a half times as likely to be poorer than families headed by males. Teenagers who have children out of wedlock are seven times more likely to be in poverty. Although female-headed families constitute only 15% of the U.S. population, they account for 50% of the poor population. Teenagers and women in their early twenties who bear illegitimate children constitute a large segment of the population that remains poor and dependent on welfare for long periods of time." \n  Same ch. pg227   "...Economic disruption is the most ovvious consequence of a divorce. In the immeadiate aftermath of a divorce, the income of the divorced woman and her children falls sharply, by 73% in the year following divorce, while the father's income rises by 42%. \nAdding to financial pressures facing the children of divorce is the fact that a majority of divorced men evade court orders to support their children. Recent surveys indicate that only 40% of support orders are fully complied with during the first year after a divorce and that by the tenth year after seperation, the figure falls to 13%."\n  * This text was written by: Steven Mintz & Susan Kellogg, \nPub. 1988 by THE FREE PRESS, A Division of Simon & Schuster, Inc.

More important than size, is stamina and angle.  There are people who are well endowed and considered to be poor lovers because they rely solely on their size.  The ability to control yourself, and get the right spot is tyically what matters most.

The answer is both yes and no, in fact, if I remember correctly.  There was a study a few years back, at the University of Chicago, I believe, reported as "Sex in America."  One of the findings was that while sex was most frequent among those with some college, but was lower among those who earned degrees and kept declining as educational level increased.\n\nSo, a little college promotes sex.  But, ultimately more college equals less sex.  (Assuming, of course, that demographics haven't changed since the study, and that there's not some aberration in the data.  One could imagine that those with higher education might realize the importance of accuracy in a study and be more likely to self-report truthfully--embellish less, and this, then, could account for the phenomenon.  But, maybe the researchers controlled for that.)

hay withdrawal can be safe at sometimes its more like 40% effective but when using a condom its more effective, its at least 80% because it can get damaged and then when you think its all safe and OK because there is a condom you then leave it in and when you're finished you can then see that the condom is damage, so for me i think withdrawal is maybe more effective for Lot of people, not scientifically but it is more effective personally because you are sure it came out before...lol but to avoid pregnancy the contraceptive pills are best its 99.9% effective. The only 100% effective way in avoiding sex is not having sex...although the virgin Mary got pregnant!!! so its withdrawal...yeah it avoids pregnancy but not transmitted disease..

Here's some text from a 2002 study reported in Neuroendrocrinology Letters that indicates male pheremones (at the heart of "body odor") may have a positive attractiveness effect to a majority of women.\n\nPrevious research has revealed that natural and synthetic pheromones can enhance ratings of opposite sex attractiveness. The present study investigated the effects of exposure to male axillary secretions on female ratings of the sexual attractiveness of male stimuli. Thirty-two female undergraduates, half of whom were contraceptive pill users, rated male vignette characters and photographs of male faces on aspects of attractiveness. On two separate study days, corresponding to different phases of their menstrual cycle, stimuli were presented while exposed to male axillary pheromones and under a control condition (no pheromone). The order of testing was balanced with respect to pheromone/control condition and menstrual cycle phase. Pheromone exposure resulted in significantly higher attractiveness ratings of vignette characters and faces. Use of the contraceptive pill or menstrual cycle phase had equivocal effects on some vignette items and neither had any influence on female ratings of male facial attractiveness. The results of this study suggest that exposure to natural male axillary pheromones can significantly enhance female perceptions of various aspects of male attractiveness.\n-----\nThere's no question that overt and extreme body odor is repellent to many (and certainly it can be!) -- especially since we've been trained by countless advertisements to find it so.  \n\nHowever, it's an evolutionary adaptation of some kind, which (certainly in the pre-bath eras) must have operated as a signal of some kind to females: of health, of strength, of non-sickness perhaps.

I partially agree with that opening statement about sex not being the problem. If sex is motivated purely by lust with no feeling or intimacy then lust becomes the problematic instigator and sex is the resulting perversion of the mind and body. Lust is the real problem, not so much the sex.

Since the beginning of time sex has been the downfall of empires, industries, influential men and now even the church!  It's the strongest addiction on earth, worst than crack, heroin, pcp, whatever.  I know I'm sexually addicted, I fight with it everyday.  They say that idle hands are the devil's playground...it's not, the mind is.  Sex begins in the mind, it's more of a mental rather than physical act.  And the hardest thing to govern, next to the heart, is the mind.

I am not sure, but I have seen that trend. Perhaps people are unwilling to believe that anyone could completly lack all sexual desire, based on their own point of view of course.  The reality is though, many people, most who are physicly lacking certain hormones are unattracted to either sex sexually, weather or not the skeptics believe it.

While it is neither ideal nor average, it does occur. Some people are practically anorgasmic while others have diminished sex drives. This is not necesarily bad since ones pleasure response to sex is to further procreation, but on the other hand that´s one less cheap thrill you can count on. Have you looked for counceling? Most people are sexually turned on by SOMETHING, but its a matter of finding out what.

No, absolutely!\nOtherwise we all should have skin problem even!\nOn the contrary, scientists says that a regular sexual life (mastu*bation too) helps the reproductive system to keep healthy and increase the performance (desire) too.\nSo, don’t worry, mastu*bation is a natural act, and with the age and stable relations, decreases till vanish.

Sexual desire can no more be overcome as can hunger.  Sexual desire, like hunger, can be sated with a caring partner.  Find yourself such a partner and see to each others healthy, consensual sexual desires.\n\nRemember, just as suppressing hunger leads to starvation, suppressing sexual desire leads to pathology:  both are unhealthy.

Africa has been devastated by AIDS. Thailand has a 40% infection, the Caribbean Islands are awash in AIDS, especially Haiti. You will find the nations with the least financial ability to be the highest in AIDS and STDS...cannot afford meds or protections...even education seems to be an overwhelming problem in these countries.

No, they think of the business. Even condoms aren't 100% effective, as you can still get AIDS/HIV through open cuts, semen/vaginal fluid, etc.

It is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth. Masturbation can also be particularly useful in relationships where one partner wants more sex than the other — in which case masturbation provides a balancing effect and thus a more harmonious relationship.\n\nBoth from the standpoint of avoiding unwanted pregnancy and that of avoiding sexually transmitted diseases, masturbation is the safest of sexual practices. There is no credible scientific or medical evidence that manual masturbation is damaging to either one's mental or physical health.\n\nOn 2003-07-16, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council published a medical study which concluded that frequent masturbation by males may help prevent the development of prostate cancer. The study also indicated that this would be more helpful than ejaculation through sexual intercourse because intercourse can transmit diseases that may increase the risk of cancer instead. Another study came to similar conclusions in April 2004.

Viagra helps stimulate neurotransmitters, so if you still have some working, Viagra may help you. However, diabetes breaks down the brain to neurotransmitter pathways, so eventually the pathways will deteriorate and Viagra will not help you. Neither will Paparverine. Others will lie to you, even other male diabetics saying "Not me, it won't happen to me. I watch my diet, blah blah blah. I've got great wood." The truth is, it happens to all male diabetics. Here is the straight talk. If you want a permanent solution, get a bionic implant. There is nothing better. It will change your life, and you can become a porn star if you wish, like me. \n\nThe general route is to try the drugs first. Then proceed to surgery after they fail, and they will. Good luck.

Nope! I speak from experience! (I am 65). Actually guys reach their peak in their late teens...for gals it's usually about the mid 30's. This can vary with the individual of course...but for most of us it's true. There is a VERY slow decline after these peaks but most people can remain sexually active throughout their lives (yeah Viagra helps for many of us older guys!). Of course people can become more sexually active in later years just because the opportunity presents itself. An older dude can find a younger woman is attracted to him for instance (maybe because of his money, maybe something else!) and he could find himself do more f--ing than he did in his twenties. For myself, I needed sex release through intercourse, oral sex or (lots of!) masturbation  at least once a day in my teens and twenties, 4 or 5 times a week in my thirties and forties and still 2 or 3 times a week in my 60's. I still think about sex every day even if I don't jack off every day as I did as a teenager. What I am getting at is it is a VERY SLOW decrease in sexual desire over the years. Nothing to worry about at all!
