Sperm counts in Western countries plunge more than 50% in 40 years - “These are dramatic and shocking results that involve not only reduced male fertility but also reflect danger to the health of males,” chief researcher Dr. Hagai Levine

Phthalates and BPA in plastic seems the most likely cause

I honestly can’t see medical professionals doing much to raise awareness or help men with this. It won’t be a mainstream issue until it’s an epidemic

It probably doesn’t help that porn makes masturbating much easier. As a teen in pre-porn time i would masturbate maybe every other day. The guys in my platoon, some of them admitted to jerking off 3-4 times a day every day. I wonder if the body can keep up with that.

Not really concerned. Seems like it will reduce the amount of pregnancy entrapment, which isn't that bad of a thing.

You make testosterone in response to your environment.
In particular male/male competition encourages production.
I'm guessing that in the modern world, to a great extent young men are competing against women, they are also not reaching positions of dominance as previously.
This makes for low-T, low fertile, low achieving men.

....men from North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. These are the cultures of feminism. In Africa and Asia where feminism isn't mainstream men are still allowed to be men.

At what point should men begin storing sperm in sperm banks?

How does alcohol affect sperm count and sperm quality? Alcohol can be extremely harmful to the male reproductive system. It is toxic to the testicles and affects the all-important cells that are involved in making sperm and producing the male hormone testosterone. It also seems to affect hormone production at the level of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland in the brain.

So not only does alcohol have a detrimental affect on the testicles themselves, it also upsets the delicate balance of hormones necessary for normal, healthy sperm production.

Who even gives a shit anymore? If you're not attractive then literally nothing you do in life matters at all, since the only thing of value now that women are empowered, is your face and height, and let's be real, your dick size.

Who even gives a shit anymore? Is this society even worth saving? I don't think so. I haven't had an authentic smile in years. I used to be a huge feminist and frankly, after years of life experience, women seem to be carbon copies of each other with less depth of character than a fucking dog. I completely get why women weren't allowed to do whatever the fuck they want while men take all the blame, bare all the consequences and emotional fallout, and don't even get to participate unless you won the same genetic lottery that is evil in literally everything in human society except when it allows women to exclude you from life. Let the entire thing fucking rot while they fuck each other in their modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. It's not like they're really people except when they use their brains to fuck someone over.

Children of Men coming to fruition.

We need to see as to what food we men eat as well, for a natural level of healthy testosterone, what i need is ginseng & some indian herbs as well,alongside eggs & chicken & meat. So i think this needs to be analysed by medical professionals, so that we could follow that diet. LET THY FOOD BE THY MEDICINE.
