Seat heaters as birth control???
We've all heard that wearing briefs can lower your sperm count due to higher heat buildup (sperm apparently do not survive much beyond body temp) in...ahem... that sperm-producing area. So I was wondering if running my heated seats often - which get pretty **** hot on the high setting - would magnify this even more and basically kill off my little swimmers by the score? Anyone know?
Is there a doctor in the house??

Re: Seat heaters as birth control???
I wasn't going to reply, but can't stop laughing. You my friend, have too much time on your hands to be thinking of this. Although, it is an interesting point. hahaha

Re: Seat heaters as birth control???
LOL...Oh my...
I'd say something, but it's sort of inappropriate. It has to do with my uncle, heated seats, and his "producing area." LOL

Re: Seat heaters as birth control???
If that assumption is true, is there a way to have my seat permanently switched on?

The legal condition: (moaning and groaning sound)....
The medical condition: Anyone who buys an M-car probably has an ABUNDANCE of what it takes, right?

Re: Seat heaters as birth control???
Too Funny. So now we have the "Burning Semen Syndrome" from heated seats.  What ever next?
Regards,

Re: Seat heaters as birth control???
I don't know about sperm counts, but I have found heated seats to be an effective laxative. It sure gets warm sown there.
