So extended exposure to heat has been shown to temporarilary reduce male fertility. But I've never read anything about having sex in a hot tub affecting fertility.

Nothing I know of is safer than sex with a condom.

Right on.

For sperm to be produced, your testies have to be a certin tempature (for some reason 84 degrees comes to mind, may be wrong though).

You may notice that when it's cold outside your testiies will be up against your body (even partily inside) and when it's hot they will hang farther than normal. This is your body trying to regulate the tempature of the testies.

So, in theory, being in a warm hot tub might make it too warm to produce *as much* seman as normal.

Even so, it only takes one little guy geting through and your life will be changed forever. Why risk it?

USE BIRTH CONTROL!
