I was as shocked as anyone to learn that my boys could swim. And hearing Jane on the phone a few weeks back saying to her friends, “his boys can swim!” made my head spin.
To be honest, I actually had a concern if my boys could swim or not. I thought all of my sperm were dead.
I heard that if a guys spends a lot of time riding a bike, then that’ll kill his sperm. I also heard that if you drank a lot of Mountain Dew when you were younger, that the yellow #5 in it would kill your sperm. And I heard that wearing tighty whities were a sure kiss of death for a guy’s boys. Huh.
So I rode my bike a lot. I also drank hundreds and hundreds of gallons of Mountain Dew growing up. I had a deep feeling inside that my boys just couldn’t swim. I thought I was shooting blanks and I’d never hear anyone say, His Boys Can Swim! when talking about me.
Well guys, I guess Mountain Dew and all that yellow # 5 (whatever that is) doesn’t kill off your army of millions of sperm. I guess all the bike-riding you did when you were younger didn’t cause damage. And I guess those years of wearing our Spiderman tighty whities didn’t destroy our chances of ever getting a girl knocked up.
So as the story goes, don’t believe everything you hear guys. Your boys are probably doing just fine and ready to start swimming their hearts out towards your wife’s or girlfriend’s egg.
And remember… all it takes is just ONE missed pill after a night of a few drinks which pregnant Jane and I found out the hard way. (Although, the hard way is often a VERY fun way!)
Also, a bit of advice… when your wife or girlfriend says, “remind me to take my pill“, get up right then and there with your glory swinging in the air and all, and get her birth control pill.
That is of course if you’re not actually trying to launch your boys into the ultimate swimming competition.
Oh, and by the way… be sure to check out the pregnancy forums and pregnancy message board that I’ve put together for just us guys. Pregnant Jane and the girls have their own section, now us guys have our own!
