I’ve been reading up a bit on Taoism and their chi kung tantric sexual practices. They belief a male loses a massive amount of ching (or energy or lifeforce, call it what you will) every time he ejaculates.
Eastern philosophy aside, it makes sense that; in a single ejaculation one has enough sperm cells to repopulate the entire United States provided that each one of them fertilizes an egg. There has to be an ENORMOUS tax on the body to create that!
Supposedly (what I heard in my high school health class) the male body manufactures roughly 1000 of these cells every second and if they build up too much over extended periods of time, it can lead to prostate problems (just what I heard, don’t necessarily believe)
Does sexual activity (or the lack thereof) affect overall metabolism, energy, strength, and general physical performance in a male? I don’t really trust myth-busters but even they say it doesn’t. I figure I’d come to the party to clear this up
