Science Fact: Daily Sex Is the Best Sex

Now that we know what sex is, it’s time to figure out when to have it.  The answer, according to science, is “a lot of the time” but “not too much of the time.”

In a study of men with fertility problems, daily ejaculation for a week cut the amount of DNA damage seen in sperm samples.

Speaking at a fertility conference, the Australian researcher said general advice for couples had been to have sex every two or three days.

Wrong!  The study instead found that eight in ten men had a 12% drop in DNA damage to sperm after a week of the once-a-day treatment.  All together now!  Allll day I dream aboooouuuut…  

f*cking.

The theory is the longer sperm hang around in the testes the more likely they are to accumulate DNA damage and the warm environment could also make them more sluggish after a while.

Sperm come under attack by free radicals – small reactive molecules which can damage DNA and cause cell death – in the tube that stores and carries sperm away from the testes.

So your guys have to pack up and move on.  You may want to get attached and name them and care for them, but that is not nature’s way.  Learn to let go.  Or as the lead scientist says, “Keep the river flowing.”

Three times a day, it should be warned, is too much, unless it’s your birthday.  The real question is, how did it take this long for this study to happen?
