The testosterone level drops 2% each year after the age of 30. Sexual desire/interest is likely to suffer as a result.

So for him to be still going strong.........:thumbs up:

We shouldn't be so judgmental. I read a study once done on women in a part of Africa who are pregnant for a large part of their reproductive years (maybe not 27 times) but it actually tends to have positive health benefits. The menstrual cycle and the period actually drains the female body of a lot of nutrients, especially iron. Haven't we all at some point felt weak and crabby during the first couple of days of our period? Have you ever tried to work out or do too much physical activity on the first day of getting it? It can be one of the worst experiences around.. leg and back aches, fatigue, weakness etc etc... when that same workout wouldn't phase you at other times of the month? (happens to me all the time even though I try my best to take women's daily multivitamins regularly). So with them being pregnant so much they obviously don't get their period as much and therefore lost less nutrients.

And like AmroodWaala said, they seem to be a happy family. At least judging from the article.

btw khadeeja that wasn't a response just to you, it was to everyone in the thread going "OH MY GOD like she's so crazy and that's just weird."
