Before we nail down the meaning of sex, erm, I mean, conception, let's consider what life actually is. Loosely speaking, life is a self-sustaining, metabolic, positive-feedback loop. In descending order of sophistication, the known lineages of living things are: the animal kingdom; the plant kingdom; the fungal kingdom; the bacterial kingdom and last, and most importantly, the brewer's yeast kingdom.

Most life on earth depends on sunlight for energy and nutrients for its building blocks. Other lifeforms spurn the sun and extract energy from deep-sea hydrothermal vents or chemical energy locked up in rocks.

But why does life bother? Because only the life that bothers, survives.

A wise biologist once noticed that the chicken is the egg's way of making another egg. Likewise a man is the sperm's way of making another sperm. And a lady is the human egg's way of making life hell once a month. This is the "The meaning of conception". Depending on your gender, you are nothing more important than either a sperm's chauffeur, or an egg box.

But, you may ask, what about SEX??? After all, to conceive, the higher creatures shag. The answer is that Sex - the act - is to Conception what the Petrol Pump is to Motoring.

Sex - the concept - is of momentous, earth-moving import, it thrusts the evolution of the more complex creatures. Sex (coupled with mutation) is Nature's recipe for cooking the gene pool a bit to prevent life getting stuck in a rut. Sex - the act is merely a diversion; a side show; a firework display; a dazzling amusement. However, any female readers wishing for clarification on the precise Meaning Of Sex are welcome to seek free philosophical, erm, enlightenment from me. Don't thank me, I'm just doing my job.

Will carnal knowledge rise prominently in the "meaning of life"? Please read on, for all will be revealed... but not prematurely!

Do you think that sex is the best thing since sliced bread?
