um gjorg.....if you're trying to make a reference to the study that concluded drinking 8 glasses of water wasn't necessary, well...hmm gonna be inflamitory here but you're being a dick. I've been browsing around the site for the last hour or so, and all you have been doing is trying to stir crap up with everyone and taking the thread off topic to quibble with everyone who doesn't agree with what you have to say. Normally I keep my mouth shut about crap like this but you're becoming annoying. If you don't have anything better to do than to go along provoking fights, please find somewhere else to spend your time.
Now, back on topic sorta.... Water is essencial for our bodies to function. We don't need to drink 8 glasses of water a day if we eat a diet filled with fresh vegetables and fruit, as they, like us, are made up primarly of water. If you're diet is high in fatty foods, spicy foods, or processed foods, it can change the ph of our bodies. So if you want to cleanse your system out you drink water. I'm not doctor or nutritionist, but if I were the op, I would examine what I am eating everyday, and adjust my diet until my seman no longer iritates the skin. It also could easily be something like using too harsh of a soap to bathe with. Antibacterial soaps are bad about drying out the skin, or causing irritation or rashes. It also could be that the op has changed laundry detergent or fabric softeners. The list could go on for ever, but if it is causing him too much pain, angst/worry, he should see his doctor and get a full cbc panel to make sure everything is in working order, and then work from there to find the solution.
