Heard it on the ABC news driving to work this morning.
I have the s4 mini precisely because it fits in my pocket easier.
I don't think I'll worry about it too much since I'm past my child bearing days anyway...

Quote:Studies linking cell phone exposure to harmful effects on sperm have been done in the United States, Australia, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Turkey and South Africa, using diverse methodologies. In some, scientists compared sperm counts and sperm health in men who wore cell phones on the hip with those who carried them elsewhere on the body or did not use cell phones at all. In others, researchers exposed sperm to cell phone radiation under laboratory conditions. In still others, scientists examined whether there was a correlation between sperm health and the intensity of cell phone use among men undergoing evaluation for infertility.
Among the findings:

• Men who carried a phone in a hip pocket or on the belt had 11 percent fewer mobile sperm than men who kept a phone elsewhere on the body (Kilgallon 2005).
  
• Men who carried a cell phone on the belt and used it intensively during a five-day test period had a 19 percent drop in highly motile sperm from their previous levels (Davoudi 2002).
  
• Men who talked on the phone for more than an hour a day had 17 percent fewer highly motile sperm than men who talked less than 15 minutes a day (Fejes 2005).
  

Laboratory studies on the effects of cell phone radiation on rats, rabbits and other animals have found similar effects on reproductive health (Kesari 2011; Mailankot 2009).
All these studies found statistically significant correlations between cell phone radiation and sperm health, and many found that the adverse changes increased with the amount of radiation exposure. Opinions differ as to the possible mechanism by which cell phone radiation might produce these changes (Falzone 2010).

Who honestly gives a shit?

It's about as pointless as telling me bacon causes cancer.

Good. The less chance there is of spawning a mini-me, the better. For the world can only bear so much...

Hold on now, nobody is suggesting getting rid of cell phones, but saying "who gives a shit" is the same fucking piss poor attitude by corporate America that took forever to get led out of gas. Same fucking attitude that has the planet stuck on oil.

How about split the difference, keep your cell phone away from your dick and in the mean time challenge cell phone MAKERS to make SAFER PRODUCTS in the long term.

This is not about one product, this is about the entire planet and the bullshit corporate attitude that the slightest suggestion that we could do things better is somehow a call to end the free market.

*puts several phones in each pocket*

So? What the hell is my species problem with considering they are not the only individual on this planet? If you want to staple your nuts to the wall, go for it, but you are not the only human on this planet.

It was mostly a joke about how I don't want anymore children. 

Cool your jets chief.

Lowering the sperm count isn't going to harm the planet one bit.

I heard on the radio a few months ago about a guy who was arrested after making a butt call. He had his cell in his back pocket and his butt pressed the speed dial for 911, so a dispatcher was listening while he told his buddy about his marijuana.

2 other things they mentioned are:
the 2 biggest insurance underwriters (can't recall the names) won't cover any claims caused by mobile phones and all phones in Sth Korea by law cannot be sold without an ear piece.
