oOo! Protein, I could use some of that being such a small girl!
Yeah, I hear no thanks from any men! [:p]

i think Neil's overestimated a bit with the 20. The actual figure is more like 4 or 5. But perhaps, as they say in Australia, Neil's merely more of a spunk than everyone else ?!

Well, that's the last time I swim in the sea []...however,..the salt taste is not always prevalent...sometimes it's sweet (ish)....savoury (ish)......and don't bloody jump to conclusions how I know this...[]

..and you don't want to get it in your eyes !!..hey !..i bet that's related to the salt thing !

yep, but why is it salty ?..interesting question michael..

I arrived on this topic by looking at the "Top 25 Most Read Topics" I found under Site Statistics (at the top of this page).

Of the top 10, three are about semen and one is about masturbation.

I'm sure that says something profound about the users of the Naked Scientists forum.

(Or does it just imply that most visitors to the site are people who have been surfing for words like "semen" and "naked"?)

(Yes, OK, I admit it, I first found Naked Scientists by doing a google search on the word "naked".)

Very good question as to why semen is salty. I would like to hear an answer to this, because I have a theory about the source of sodium and other ions in semen.

Please supply an answer if you know the subject

Coffee seems to work both ways. I saw a study saying that although it was quite ok for a guy to drink a couple of cups, the effects were less than beneficent for the gals. Don't have that link though:)

[Chemistry4me]

What were the effects on women?

What were the effects on women?

Don't remember the specifics, sorry. I think I read it in a paper some months ago, looking at the web there is almost only good things to be said for coffee.

I had to cut down on coffee because it was producing negative side effects. I couldn't get up in the morning (that's improved slightly since cutting down) and I couldn't thnk straight without a coffee. I also suffered headaches if I missed out the morning 'dose', and had trouble going to bed at a reasonable time at night because I was so wired by the end of the day. []

I have switched to Tea instead which seems to have fewer side effects[].

Apparently, get this, this is weird, but the research shows that, coffee if you take it in the morning, delays your body clock, but if you take it in the evening, it sets it backwards. So if you have the above problem, you should skip it at breakfast, and drink it only late at night.

I tried this, and to my surprise I didn't find it stopped me sleeping, like you might expect. It actually seems to work(!)

For a long time I tended to suspect the whitener in coffee-machine coffee had a sedative effect which was more powerful than the stimulant of the caffine - hence why I tended to find my eyes glazing over in the afternoon.
On the other hand I don't really have any evidence for this and maybe I switched the cause and effect (I was only drinking the coffee becuase my eyes were glazing over).
Then again, I've never been consciously aware of any caffine buzz, ever.

Then again, I've never been consciously aware of any caffine buzz, ever.

Neither have I my friend. Frankly, I can drink two or three pots before bed time and never have any trouble going to sleep. On the other hand, my wife must stay clear of it for at least 3 or 4 hours before hitting the sack, go figure?

I read the title of the thread and then the above post, ignoring the quote.
I did a double take!

WOW, that is funny. []
