Wine drinkers are more fertile

It also said that they were unclear as to what the link was between wine and pregnancy.

Who are these people? The link is more sex!

I don't know, I clicked the link and I didn't get any sex. :unsure:

This reminds me of the bumper-sticker:

If you drink, don't park.

My 8 month pregnant wife keeps blaming me for a second boy. Should I have listened to her and brought her favorite wine a couple of days earlier...

Life taught me to order what I enjoy.

The art of living taught me to take my time and enjoy.

Katie,

That was my point, though being male I felt I couldn't deliver it with the "directness" that you did.

JD:

I've been accused of being many things, but "indirect" has never been one of those... :biggrin:

This study is absurd. Unless they were isolating the wine drinkers from the non-drinkers, timing everyone's cycles, and inseminating the subjects at identical intervals with, *ahem*, the same "sample", there's no way they can accurately state that conclusion. Too many variables to count, and the subtleties of what allows conception to take place are too ephemeral to begin to formulate a conclusion, no less attempt to quantify it.

Thread title: Wine drinkers are more fertile, Another reason to drink...

or maybe another reason not to drink!

Exactly what I was going to say!

Me, too.

Noise is music. All else is food.

I'd love to see a similar "study" done of tequila drinkers.
