More Sex = More Kids?

Reuters reported a few weeks back that having sex daily actually improves sperm health. Interesting! I guess this probably bodes good news for the men! Now whenever the wife refuses their advances, they can always manipulate by saying, "Don't you wish for me to be healthy?" Actually it is rather common sensical, is it not? Afterall, if the couple is trying for a kid, the more you make love, the more chances of conceiving you have, if both husband and wife are healthy and their bodies are functioning properly.

This also bodes good news to all those men who are addicted to masturbation, sleeping around and one night stands. All the more they will have sex or ejaculate as often as possible in order to be healthier, since it is now scientifically proven that having more sex will improve the quality of their semen. It is up to each individual what kind of life they lead, I am beyond the phase of getting disturbed and disgusted.

Personally, if I am to get married, consummation is a given, whether by law or religion. If my husband refuses to make love to me, I can have him sued and the marriage annulled. Of course, there is a danger where the man, being man, will always have a much higher sex drive than a woman, so it is up to the couple to communicate and show respect for each other.

Having sex should not just be to conceive. It is the physical and emotional bonding of two people in love and want to belong to each other as one. Too many people as it is take sex so lightly, and can sleep with just any mere person, but I am not about to judge here.

My religion preaches against contraception. I have not gone to any natural family planning course as yet, but I have been told that using contraceptives is a prevention of life, which is against the teachings. Whether a couple have kids or not, it is God's gift. So if God deems the time, He will bless the couple with a kid, and many kids.

Still, this is a grey area. What if the couple only want two kids? Or want to enjoy couplehood first before having any kids? That is why we need family planning. Of course, the couple can abstain, but as a married couple, sex is part and parcel of married life (although it should not be the be all and end all), so it is natural for them to want to make love.

If they have sex everyday without contraceptives, then the chances of having kids is very high indeed, if they are not planning for any as yet. For some people, just one time can get the woman pregnant; for others, they can try for years without any luck. Of course, accidents do happen, even with contraceptives. Who is to say using contraceptives is a sure proof way of not getting pregnant?

In any case, I read with amusement at the report. I am sure many more would have reacted in an uproar. I can just imagine the number of husbands or boyfriends showing their wives or girlfriends the article in a bid to bed them more often. The article did not state whether more sex equates to more children, but I do believe a healthy sex life and a healthy marriage is co-related. Thus, whether planning for kids or not, there should be a healthy amount of love-making in a couple to sustain the relationship in the first place.
