All you gentlemen out there, stop what you are doing and read this column. Your manhood could depend on it. Not that you're paying attention, here ís the news: According to a recent study in the journal Human Reproduction, teenagers and young men should keep their laptops off their laps because they could damage fertility.
Laptops, which reach high internal operating temperatures, can apparently heat up the scrotum, which in turn could affect the quality and quantity of men's sperm.
Adolescents and young men who use laptops several times a day over many years face the greatest risk, the study said. There was no word on whether the news would spur changing the term laptop to another moniker, such as knee-top or vasecto-PC.
