As human beings we have what can be judicious some of the strangest mating rituals in the creature kingdom. Most species hook up with members of the wayward sex to procreate and nothing else. There is no excited bond that ties them together for the rest of their lives other than the need to continue the species. Now that’s not to say that all animals are like this, there are some species out there that do mate for life, but the total percentage of those types are miniscule.

Sure, you can say that many animals have mating rituals that rival ours. There are male birds that flash their colorful plumage trying to attract a female, but is that really dating or just a type of seduction? And in the end isn’t that what going on dates is all about, seducing that someone we’ve had our eye on.

Dating is a form of seduction, only for us humankind it can sometimes take a much longer time for the desired results to be had. In the animal world there is a specific time of the year when seduction and mating can take dimension, and with the exception of humans, dolphins and some primates, animals mate to continue their species and not for the pure pleasure of it. For most animals it is the drive to survive as a species.

We humans have taken the all  dating/seduction ritual to unforseen heights. Just think of all the things we do to try and impress that special someone. And why do we want to impress them? Because we think we like them and if we don’t do our best to seduce them using all sorts of dating tricks and techniques then someone else will and that’s just not acceptable.

So why do we date?

To impress someone we are interested in? I would say yes on that one. I can’t think of any other reason to spend that kind of time and money other then to do just that.

To continue the human species? This is a far more subjective question. Do we really need more humans on the world? That’s problematical. I think for the absolute majority of humans it’s for a petty more selfish reasons and that’s to have somone come after us who carries the family name onward into the future.

Just for the fun of it? Now here’s whole another way to look at it. Meeting new people is fun. Particularly if you are attracted to them.Dating is fun and it introduces us to whole new ways of thinking and approaching people.

The why do we date question is a hard one to resolve, but whatever your reasons may be it’s a part of what makes us human.

July 19, 2010 by author · Leave a Comment 

Have you been attempting to get pregnant for some time – without much being successful? If so, you might go to a fertility practitioner. Nevertheless, it is a very good idea to first understand how to get pregnant naturally – since the body operates far better anytime it is allowed to do its own thing if possible. In this article are four leading strategies you can use to help you boost your chances of getting pregnant.

1. Understand your cycle. You will require a basal thermometer to do this. On the first day of your period, take your temperature first thing in in the morning. Do not even get out of bed before doing so- make this the first thing that you do. Then, chart your temperature every day. When it spikes, about half-way through your cycle, this signifies you have just begun ovulation. Your temperature will stay higher until the beginning of your next period, but the 6 days after you begin ovulation are the only time in which you will be able to get pregnant, so be sure to have sex as much as possible during those days.

2. You diet plan is vital if you prefer to get pregnant by natural means. You should eat at the same diet plan you could if you were pregnant, concentrating on nutrient-rich foods. Underweight and overweight women of all ages have a harder time getting pregnant than those inside a healthy weight range. Proper diet plan will also help with some of the other actions you need to take to improve your chance of getting pregnant.

3. Keep a positive and relaxed mindset. If you are feeling hopeless or under physical stress, you will stop ovulating. The halting of ovulation is a protective measure if the body thinks it is not the ideal time to conceive. Seek counseling if it will help, as you will really want to in high spirits for your child when you get pregnant anyway, so it is most beneficial to get support now. Scientific research has shown the direct and indirect link between the mind and the body, particularly where it relates to the hormone cortisol. Stress produces cortisol, and continuous stress produces a constant fight-or-flight predicament. When the body remains in this heightened condition it also shuts down all other non-essential functions such as weight loss, cell restoration and the ability to become pregnant. In order to get pregnant, you have to have to minimize your stress levels as much as possible.

4. Make use of the best position during sexual intercourse. Although there have been no formal studies on it, the missionary style is recommended when trying to conceive. This makes sense physiologically, since the sperm will be delivered nearer to the cervix. After intercourse, put a pillow under your bottom while lying down. This will enable gravity to send the sperm in the proper route up the fallopian tubes. On the other hand, you could place a pillow under your hips during sex, as well, for the same effect.

There are a few points that the father to be will be able to do to help as well. His diet plan should also be as healthy as possible. Some artificial flavoring and coloring have been linked to decreased sperm count, so encourage him to limit as much processed foods from his diet plan as possible. Also, if he wears briefs, encourage him to switch to boxers, which allow for the right temperature for sperm production. If he is not interested inside making these changes, assure him that they are only temporary.

With these types of choices, you will likely feel better and more educated about your possibilities.Often it can be a basic issue that is throwing off your results. Often, after you make some dietary and life-style adjustments, you will find yourself pregnant in no time. Remember that for women under thirty-five, infertility is described as being incapable to get pregnant after 6 months of trying to do so.
