Alcholism distinguished from social drinking

If a man ejaculates in a swimming pool, can a woman in the pool get pregnant?

Though the mighty spermatazoa are powerful swimmers, chlorine, acid and water temperature will prevent a successful journey. Also problems with navigation in such a large body of water hamper fertilization. However, sexual intercourse in a pool can result in pregnancy if no contraception is used.

There have been anecdotal stories (which I didn't read in The New England Journal of Medicine) about girls becoming pregnant after brothers ejaculated in the warm bath water used by the entire family on Saturday nights!

I have repeated arousing fantasies about spanking nubile young women. Am I a deviant?

Believe it or not, these feelings are termed a "paraphilia" in the psychiatric nomenclature. The features of a paraphilia are recurrent intense sexual urges involving either

(1) nonhuman objects Ä corpses, animals, feces, shoes, telephones, enemas.

(2) the suffering or humiliation of either oneself or a partner.

(3) children or other nonconsenting persons.

If your feelings have gone on more than six months and the nubile women don't want to be spanked, you have a sexual disorder.
