Not everything falls under the "Jokes" thread. I searched the past threads (two whole pages deep) and didn't find anything quite like this.

Post anything worth commenting on, be it a joke (although we already have a thread for those), funny pictures or videos or just a quirky news story worth mentioning.

I know most of you are here for the T&A, but once you're done , stick around and say something interesting





To start:

If you haven't seen this, watch it. I'm not sure if I should get up and dance to it or laugh or do both.

Hmmm makes you think twice about guys with voices like Barry White and James Earl Jones....

Listen up, ladies: The deep timbre of a male voice may sound attractive, but low-voiced men actually tend to have lower sperm counts, a new study says.

Multiple studies have found that women usually favor masculine features, such as prominent jaws, high muscle mass, and low-pitched voices.

The theory is that these traits signal a high-quality mate?for instance, it's been proposed that masculine men generally have more robust amounts of sperm.

But the new research revealed that, while deep voices are attractive to women, low-pitched men actually tended to have lower concentrations of sperm in their ejaculate.

The finding suggests that men who evolutionarily invest most of their energy into making themselves attractive to females may suffer deficiencies in other areas?in this case, sperm counts.

For instance, the male hormone testosterone?which lowers voice pitch?can thwart sperm production, according to study leader Leigh Simmons, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Western Australia.

Measuring Sperm Counts

For the study, Simmons and colleagues recruited 54 heterosexual men and 30 heterosexual women from a college campus.

The team recorded the voices of the male volunteers, then asked the female volunteers to rate the men's voices in terms of attractiveness and masculinity. Not surprisingly, the women rated deep voices as most alluring.

Each male volunteer then collected a semen sample "in the privacy of their own home and returned it to the lab for analysis," Simmons said via email.

The samples were entered into a computer-assisted sperm-analysis system, or its ability to swim toward its target, the egg?as well as the number of sperm in the semen.

The analysis showed that men with more attractive voices did not have better sperm quality than those with less desirable voices.

In fact, Simmons noted, the sperm from the deep-voiced men were "perfectly motile" and fertile?there were just fewer sperm cells in the ejaculate.

Masculine Traits Evolved for Other Men?

An overriding question in this kind of research is why characteristically masculine traits evolved in people.

"In our evolutionary past, [masculine] men would have had greater reproductive success, leading to sexual dimorphism [differences between men and women] in voices, faces, bodies, etcetera," said Simmons, whose study appeared December 21 in the journal PLoS ONE.

"This is all very well researched in non-human animals?think of elk or peacocks. But we know less about our own evolutionary history."

Masculinity is also important in competing with other men, Simmons emphasized. Evolutionary psychologist Laura Dane agreed.

"It's equally likely (if not more likely) that males, in general, have bigger and more muscular bodies as well as lower-pitched voices because they had to compete with other males for dominance and status," Dane, of Douglas College in Canada, said by email.

In fact, a woman's preference for masculinity may be a byproduct of her interest in finding a dominant mate?someone who would offer the best protection for her and her family.

The new study also fits into the idea that masculinity may have a role beyond attracting females, she added, a topic currently under investigation.

"If masculine traits lead to higher dominance/status positions even at the expense of some level of sperm quality then the trade-off between masculine traits and fertility makes more sense," she said.

Posted by: evade20 Aug 10 2012, 09:13 PM

This one is funny, too. According to one source I read, the bee in the urinal is actually a pun on the Latin name for bee, "apis". Go to ther john and take apis...

Posted by: morpheusone Aug 11 2012, 06:33 AM

I can imagine a bunch of "players" standing over these "sports urinals" intermittently yelling out "GOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLL!!!!!"

Okay a Question , where do they find all these fine Ass gals to play Volleyball and Swim and run at the games ?

Posted by: morpheusone Aug 11 2012, 10:29 AM

They're Olympic athletes, fine ass by default
Spank that and get spanked back, HARDER

Posted by: Buck Turgidson Aug 11 2012, 07:32 PM

At every Olympic village(where olympians stay during the games) there is more fucking going on than a porn production. Think about this; athletes in top shape, hard bodies with fans, both guys and girls lining up to fuck them or be fucked. Then after they are done competing, it's a fuck/suck fest until they board their plane.

In '02 when I was at the women's figure skating village, that's when I discovered I could cum dry....



lol, I kid

Posted by: icandoit Aug 11 2012, 09:27 PM

There have been conflicting interviews with different US Olympians about "Condom-Gate" where the tens of thousands of condoms supplied to the Olympic Village end up running out just a few days into the games. Some say that it's an ongoing joke among the Olympians just to tease the organizers, some say it's because the condoms are souvenirs, others say it's true there really is that much fucking going on.

To be honest, I think I'd have to have a go with a few of those rock hard bodies. I mean seriously!!! Have you seen the bodies on those divers/swimmers/runners/jumpers/gymnasts???

Posted by: Buck Turgidson Aug 11 2012, 10:15 PM

Oh yeah, I have noticed some of the women competitors!
Those gymnast women drive me crazy! They're so muscular and tone, I am kinda afraid if they've been practicing kagles, something bad might happen in the bedroom. But at the same time, I'm so curious!

Posted by: morpheusone Aug 12 2012, 09:01 AM

I think what also fuels all that debauchery is the fact that these elite athletes likely get little time to form or maintain healthy monogamous relationships, spending most of their everyday lives honing themselves and their careers. That village becomes one giant release valve for deprivation EN MASSE. No surprise at all, it is what it is...in addition to being entertaining for the outsiders

Everyone looks at dogs as a certain breed, like a pug, or golden retriever and not just as a dog. There are breeds for cats too, but we look at them simply as a cat.

Not as funny when explained.
