Man and woman check into fertility clinic; told to try sex.

LOL, this story is simply hilarious. I am in awe.

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Childless couple told to try sex

A German couple who went to a fertility clinic after eight years of marriage have found out why they are still childless - they weren't having sex.

The University Clinic of Lubek said they had never heard of a case like it after examining the couple who went to see them last month for fertility tests.

Doctors subjected them to a series of examinations and found they were both apparently fertile, and should have had no trouble conceiving.

A clinic spokesman said: "When we asked them how often they had had sex, they looked blank, and said: "What do you mean?".

"We are not talking retarded people here, but a couple who were brought up in a religious environment who were simply unaware, after eight years of marriage, of the physical requirements necessary to procreate."

The 30-year-old wife and her 36-year-old husband are now being given sex therapy lessons while the university clinic undertakes a study to try to find out if there are more couples with a similar lack of sex education.

Ok, so let me get this straight. There are people who are doing the act at ages 12 and above here, whereas in Germany, theres actually middle-aged people who never heard of it?

I think this is proof that God does not, in fact, exist. No supernatural entity would be stupid enough to design a life form that doesn't instinctively know how to reproduce itself.

I guess maybe they don't know what "sex" is, but they should have felt "feelings" inside that "interest" them. I mean, because they love each other and are romantically close, they must have "urge to connect more." [http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif]

That isn't about being "brought up in a religious environment," that is just pure stupidity. It's called natural selection: if you don't know how, you don't, and you don't get to poison the gene pool.

I really did not think you could be that repressed. I mean... Wouldn't you have heard the word/topic of sex mentioned in 30 something years of living?? Their parents obviously knew something about it.. This is aggravating.

But yeah, it is pretty amazing that not only a person didn't know about sex at age 30, but TWO of them! AND they happened to marry EACHOTHER! What are the odds!!

these people arent 'religious', information has been withheld from them. my mom never gave me the sex talk coz she knew i knew what sex was, but when i got my period she still sat me down and explained me the biology of it alleven though i knew it bu thats besides the point. moms make sure about stuff like that. i dont know about guys and dads though. coz honestly unless theres a valid reason for why you bleed everymonth, every girl would be pretty freaked out.

Here's the time-honored Cline's way of sex talk for the males of the family.

"Keep it in your pants son, and you won't get in trouble."

Nothing more, nothing less. It has worked for dad, it has worked for me.

That aside, how in the HELL can you NOT know a thing about sex in this day in age?? If they are Christian, they really need to pick up both Bibles and read them carefully. It is ok to have sex with your wife: whenever, however, whereever. If other religion..well I suppose that is what the doctrines teach well can't do much about that I suppose.

The meaning of life is to reproduce. If you fail at this, your exsistance is useless. Even religion teaches us this.

On another note, maybe this is a good argument against religion :-P?

And lastly, it's really an interesting debate: Are people born with a sex drive? If someone could be so sheltered to not know about sex, would they still discover it in some natural way? Or are they born "Innocent" to such things. Plus, we can't forget the fact that they were brought up religiously: Perhaps it was something that was thought of shunned. When they were kids, they very well could have had a natural urge to release sexual tension, but don't remember it. They were probably scolded at such a young age for it, and it was deleted from their natural list of instincts.

What if they're lying out of their bums? I mean, it's free publicity. Free stupid publicity, but still publicity. Either way, they're idiots, and shouldn't be told about sex. Reproduction of these two is doomed.
