Don't Expect a Coronavirus Baby Boom

Don't Expect a Coronavirus Baby Boom

Fiona Zublin 1 day ago

The isolation required by the coronavirus crisis is no exception. After all, more than 1.5 billion people across the globe have been told to go on varying levels of lockdown, confined to their houses with less than usual to do and reduced access to contraception.

Everyone’s anxious and needs both an outlet for that anxiety and something to fill the hours. Still, in a survey conducted mid-March of the British public:

Only 3 percent said sex was the activity they’d most likely engage in under lockdown.

To put that in perspective: About 1 in 3 people responding to the YouGov survey said they’d be watching TV, making that the most popular activity. Twice as many people said they’d be gardening as those who said they’d be having sex. Of course, watching TV or gardening can both be done with family around, which can’t be said for sex.

   The selfish woman that's currently living here, hid my Viagra. 
   I should be pizzed, but it will get refilled next Wednesday, automatically.

I've been wondering how that's going.  Why on Earth would she do a thing like that?  Doesn't she want "it?"

   She says it's bad for my Heart/BP but I think she's lying. 
   I am somewhat comfortable with the 'Bad Lay' label she pins on me, she'll come around, eventually.  :whistle:

I think the people responding are lying liars or too ugly to get lucky. There is always an activity that people at home with too much time and too much liquor, can't speak to pharmaceutical users, do when they can't go out and about, whether that's because of weather or finances or government mandated house arrest.

No. I think people living with each other with no where to go to it becomes a “No exit” type of situation.

And frankly, after a month, things you loved before aren’t so great.

I have a malaise for the things a month ago (Netflix, ice cream) we’re keeping me sane.

Now I’m just happy to hear birdsongs in the morning.

That's a lovely thought... yes, in some ways, we get caught up with things in life that distract from the more simple pleasures.

What I’m worried about is all the jokes about putting on weight while you are in quarantine/lockdown.

You’ve heard about putting on the “Freshman five? Welcome to the quarantine fifteen”

That's funny. I was so scared of what was going on last month I actually LOST weight! I am fitting into a shirt I originally bought when I was 30 pounds lighter than I was right before the lockdowns began.
