German Couple Finds Out Stork Isn't Real -- Fox News A childless German couple finally found out why they weren't able to conceive - they had never had sex. After eight years of marriage, the 36-year-old man and his 30-year-old wife went to the campus' fertility clinic to figure out what was wrong. Doctors gave them a battery of tests and were baffled - both husband and wife were healthily fertile. Then came the important question. "When we asked them how often they had had sex," said a clinic spokesman, "they looked blank, and said: 'What do you mean?" He went on to explain that each of the pair had been brought up extremely religiously and had never heard of the birds and the bees. "We are not talking retarded people here," the clinic spokesman said. The two "were simply unaware, after eight years of marriage, of the physical requirements necessary to procreate." DUH!!!!!
I call bull****. It's instinct. Besides, what did their family and friends ever say to them about no kids or them trying to have a baby.
Reminds me of the Appalacian story: Milas and Bobo were killing time, talking about world issues, and Milas declares that he and Emma "been married 35 years and he's gotten a little tired of poking that same hole night after night , year after year." Bobo gets a devilish look in his eye and says "well, why don't you flip her over and poke the OTHER hole?" Milas recoils and declares "What, and end up with a house full of kids?!?!"
Thank God the docs held up their obligation to order a bunch of expensive (and maybe painful) tests rather than take a history first!
"We are not talking retarded people here," the clinic spokesman said." Unless these people have NEVER watched TV, and have lived in a cave for their whole lives, i refuse to believe this article. If they "had been brought up extremely religiously" as the article states, then surely they should be familiar with the story that Jesus was immaculately concieved, and that it was a miracle. Were they expecting this to happen too? It really seems to me like this article is BS, or the couple is just stupid, very very stupid. I am not sure whether the title of the article was intended to be funny, but if this couple actually did expect a stork to come flying in with a baby then they are idiots. I am no bible expert, but i dont think theres too much in the bible about storks delivering babies on a regular basis. If the story is true, clearly these people are less intelligent than every other sexually reproducting speices on the planet.
They had to live in a cave with no other human contact!! That's impossible, seriously. Some people are really uptight, but ... seriously... not even knowing you can *uck? That's beyond pathetic!!! ROFLMFAO!! I really have to call BS on that ... come on ... they had to have a clue ...
Wouldn't that like discovering a Ferrari in your basement in a house you had for 8 years? YEEEHAAAA!!!
It'd be more like discovering you have a perfectly running and maintained Ferrari (we have no pics of the wife ... maybe it's just a Fiat ... LMAO!!) in your basement Too bad at this stage you're such a bad driver HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA
I dunno.. I worked in a medical library at the end of high school and saw plenty of weird cases in the books there. I remember seeing quite a bit of anecdotal evidence that there really are some deeply religious people who don't know how babies are made. One that I specifically remember in one of the psychiatric journals was a 26 or 27 year old woman who was completely distraught after kissing a guy for the first time... she thought she was going to be pregnant. So yeah, I could see how this story could be true. Never underestimate the power of ignorance.. especially when dealing with people who think the planet is 6000 years old and that sending money to the nice man on TV really will heal grandma's cancer... I don't think it would take much to convince them of just about anything you wanted them to believe. -R
If people are capable of being as ignorant as this german couple, have you ever wondered if there are things so painfully obvious to others that we as normal american citizens simply dont know about for some reason or another?
That's the oddest thing I've ever heard in my life. It's almost hard to believe it. So in 36 years this guy never punched the clown or had a wet dream even during maturity? These two must have been so secluded from the outside world and had no friends.....maybe they're sibblings.
LMAO...!!! Fox news website or not, i, too, am throwing in the BS towel on this... When she was growing up, her mother never explained to her WHY she was bleeding for a week out of every month from "down there"...? Also, as someone else mentioned, the urge is instinct... Punch the clown isn't the first term i would've used, but it DOES get the point across... In this day and age, it would take kidnapping to keep someone from all the sex and sexual innuendoes in today's society... Lastly, if this is true, he's gotta have the severist case of pozzi blue marbles the medical world has ever seen...
Believe me, if there is one thing I have learned in my career is one should never underestimate people's stupidity (or ingenuity) in matters sexual. I can believe this story. All joking aside, about the 2nd or 3rd question that is asked in an infertility work-up is frequency of intercourse, so it is surprising that ANY tests were done prior to that. German docs may be different in that regard. There are well documented cases similar to this one where the couple mistakingly engaged only in anal intercourse for years. Now, isn't that more than you really wanted to know!?! BTW, I think I should lobby Rob to be the "Sexual Deviation Consultant"
Let's see....... They're married; they're sibblings;.......YES, they're from West Virginia alright!!!
Hahaha, I don't think she was 'in' with his devious master plan. Cunning bastard . I'm sorry but it is 100% instinct, and the guy eventually would have to 'spank the monkey' or something ... if he hasn't for all this time, then I think we have finally found someone capable of being a Priest (and actually leaving the little boys alone). You would also have to be extremely stupid to have gotten to that age and not over heard or thought about things you have heard. There apparently is a tribe in Papa Nugini (sp?) that to this day have not worked out that intercourse triggers the baby making process. They think the baby is a miracle, and just have sex for fun (very clever males in that tribe, bet they run quickly to any foreigners and get them to swear to their little secret ... me thinks ). Pete
A german girl (we'll call her Inga), meets a frenchman (we'll call Pierre). They fall in love and plan to marry. Inga's father tries to talk her out of it, "Those french men are sick Inga! Don't marry him. He's going to try to turn you over and go at it from the other door!" Inga, being young and sure of herself, marries Peirre anyway. Inga's father, worrying about his daughter's carnal activities, asks her occasionally if "that sick french man has tried to get you to use the other door?" Each time Inga assures him that everything is fine and that Pierre acts just like a perfect german husband would. A few years go by, and one night Pierre whispers in Inga's ear, "Tonight Inga my love, why don't we try using the other door..." Inga jumps up yelling, "I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! MY FATHER WARNED ME ABOUT YOU SICK FRENCH MEN! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WOULD ASK ME TO DO THAT!" Pierre, perplexed, asks... . . . . . "But Inga, don't you want to have children?"
