Seems the "Modern Day Male Metrosexual" are causing problems. Too many non-manly moments and touchy-feeley times are catching up to us.

One in five men could suffer from fertility problems. And scientists have warned that it's just going to get worse...
There's a crisis brewing, but it has nothing to do with the economic deficit or the current political uncertainty. Scientists are warning that rising levels of male infertility have become so perilous that it is a serious 'public health issue'. And some go even further.
Professor Niels Skakkebaek, of the University of Copenhagen, describes the issue 'as important as global warming'. Last week, one science writer even suggested, in starkly terrifying terms, that if scientists from Mars were to study the male reproductive system, they would possibly conclude that man was destined for rapid extinction.
And if it continues, this trend could indicate men are on a path to becoming completely infertile within a few generations.

Oprah did this,.....our emasculation, becoming more "sensitive" is going to doom our future generation, cause we're not "Man" enough....

A couple weeks ago I found the cure for this problem. I was working in the office in the metro area, and a "dandy" from Bastan decided we needed "coffee" on our way from one office to another. We ended up at some flaky coffee shop, he ordered some fourteen word name of something ... grande, I asked for a large coffee ... what ... a big cup of coffee to go ... what flavor ... >:( I just want an F***en cup of black coffee! Ooooooops :-\ The next day I picked the coffee place, and it was a turn of the century (1900, not 2000) looking bakery. I asked for a large coffee, and I got a great big cup of hot, black coffee ... Bastan got shown where the row of flavorings were ... Kinda like Creamora only fancier ;D
That coffee stop alone made the boys swing low, and I've been trimming nose and ear hairs for three weeks now ;D
If ordering coffee doesn't cut it for you, go to a University library or a bookstore in a metro area, and ask for a book on hunting. Nothing makes you feel like a man like explaining that moose is something with antlers and best cooked medium rare ... not some s**t you smear in your hair ;)

"Saddle up and get the job done, partner."
I volunteer to sacrifice myself for humanity and be a stand in for all the Metros who can't, well, 'saddle up'. *Sigh*... a tough job, but someone's got to do it! ;D

Speaking from overpopulated and overdeveloped South Florida? Anything that will cause a decrease in population seems like a good thing. The world was just fine with 1950's level populations. Returning to them would be bad why?

Oh, that's easy to answer! It would be racist.
Seems to be the answer for anything positive now a days ;D

Fat chance. ;D

Well the liberals have been aborting their own for a while maybe it will get rid of the rest.
As for fatmans comments. Sign me up too. Nothing like us cave men keeping the blood line alive.

Hardly. We have the Octo Mom (eg the human possum for Simpsons fans), and on one of the women's channels "19 and Counting".19? 19 freaking kids? Yes, your vagina may work, but your brain, not so much. To me, 19 kids is a prima facia case for child neglect. Who's going to to feed, clothe, sing lullaby's to, potty train, teach to read, walk, play with, etc. 19 freaking kids? Hell, I'm obviously paying for them anyway, lets at least take direct control. Honestly, octuplets? 19 kids? On my dime? You wonder why I am pro-birth control.Rant over.
Still, I am not alone when I say that I am neither an idiot nor want kids. Having a kid is like carrying a gun. If you don't want to, for whatever reason, please, for everyone's sake, don't do it. We'll all be better off. Sorry I'm not holding up the Darwinian standard (though Eric and Rastus will be pleased ;)). Its just that when God said "Be fruitful and multiply", that made sense when there were two of us. When there are 6 billion and counting? I think the Lord expects a little common sense, self control and using scientific knowledge on our parts.

that would be HTFU :)
not only do they cuddle and touch each each other up, but the blokes break down and weap like a little girl at the drop of a hat.
There was a time when a bloke "may" shed a tear when there first child was born, however it appears now days they are "expected" to blubber more than the Oprah @ Fat Camp, and then it goes downhill from there
funny you should mention this we were just watching a show here called Master Chef and a couple of the Alleged Blokes ( I thing they did not have any balls ) were having a big cry. I mentioned what a bunch of Poofs
then the MIL go stuck in to be about how there should be more of it and that men should cry... well I could not let that go un-responded
been a little quite for the last 20 mins hehe....
MFW = Modern Fagatised World
I say it is partly due to the Poofter Society at work and has rubbed on to the Metro's with there a man needs to cry BS
then taken by Dr Phil & Opera from the emotional engagement. poofter speak 101
hopefully, the idiots will be the ones that can't have kids.
unfortunately it is the other way around a lot of the time :'( :'(
take the simple Bog Roll's
none of this 3 ply soft crap this is read blokes dunny paper
;D

The octomom is clearly working with more than a few splinters in the windmills of her mind. The "19 and Counting" family is a devout Christian family who do take the "be fruitful and multiply" verse seriously, even if you don't. The Duggar's take very good care of their kids and do not take one single dime from you - or the gummint. The husband works, and they make a bunch from the reality show and sponsors.
As for the second highlighted comment, what am I, chopped liver? ? ? ? ;D
As for using "scientific knowledge", well, this is just one reason why you're a faux "libertarian". The Duggar's are living their lives very nicely without you - or your hinted interference - and following their own, and God's, direction.

Damn straight Phil!
I don't hug share or cry. If I do, it will be with my best buds when I'm three sheets to the wind or my girfriend if things have totally gone to hell. Either way, it will never be spoken of again. Those are just the rules. Follow them.
Example from my Old Man,(who I shake hands with and haven't hugged since I was 16, a right of passage). My Grandma donated her body to the Med. school at UF after she died. Six months later, the urn came home. There was supposed to be a small internment service with my dad, my uncle and the grandkids for the internment. The funeral home was supposed to deal with the practical stuff. They did not. So, Clan McCullough went to Home Depot, bought a post hole digger and did the deed. No whinging there, just a good laugh and a couple of cases of beer. God knows Grandmama would have liked knowing we at least had to sweat for her in our fancy clothes. Hell, I even played the pipes, which she would have loved more. She hated the noise, but loved the Scotts nationalism. Me playing "Scotts Wha' Hae" in a kilt while my cousins in their suits and dresses dug in the 90 degree heat of a Central Florida August day? The old lady was Rofl. But we did it it with nae bitching. ;D HTFU!

Beat me too it Path.....The Duggars would have done quite nicely with or without TLC and seem to be raising their children better than any yuppie family with 2.15 children, a dog and a white picket fence. They were even able to build a 7000 sq/ft home with their own hands. Took them three years but it got done.

We have spent the past two weeks here in Florida with local news focusing on an unmarried black woman who has 15 children, 12 of whom were living with her in a motel. The most telling thing about the situation was this woman shouting at the reporter that, "Somebody gots to do something to look after these kids." That started something of an uproar, and the woman ended up in court where she refused to answer the judge's question as to whether she was pregnant yet again. The judge sentenced her to jail for contempt, and suggested she reconsider her non-answer.
Point is, college graduates, intelligent people of all stripes, generally above average types--these are the people having just one or two children. Gutter trash like the above have 15 and depend on the state to care for them. It does not take a genius to project the eventual outcome.
I continue to weep for my country,
