Men’s Health

The British are more open about masculine intimate details than Americans or Canadians. I’m not sure why, but I suspect it has to do with their actors being more in touch with their feminine side.

Take an episode from The Graham Norton Show, featuring Alan Cumming, for example: Alan discussed scrotox. It’s a real thing, you can Google it, here. Unfortunately, the episode contains way too many other people, but I’ll share it starting at the 9 minute mark:

This put me in mind of a talk show I saw years ago, featuring Kenneth Williams. In it, he scandalously discussed the fact that aging has its own detriment: a saggy bottom. He said that no one warned him about that. (We can guess why, can’t we?) Here’s a rather long interview with Parkinson, from 1981:

Are we entertained? You bet we are.

But my point for even going here is the fact that being hyper-masculine is dying out. We can see the death throes, everywhere. Even men’s sperm count is declining at a faster rate than the experts predicted.

So, what is really going on? Some studies have suggested that plastics production is to blame.

Hmm.
