Oh, and the insistence that gays not be allowed in the military........

Because sexual abstinence in men over long periods allows greater exercise of aggression? Thats an interesting idea.

It's commonly used in the sporting world as well.  Many teams have a "no sex" rule that comes into effect a few nights before a match.

Bunch of man-hating, ITT.

But seriously, I'm not sure what to make of that research. It's interesting, however I'm definitely not going to limit my sexual activity to such prolonged intervals.

I've done that before as an experiment in self-control and I just felt strange, and everything had a heightened sexual atmosphere. Yeah, it was kind of creepy.

Yeah, I've found that a couple days of total abstinence leads to weird dreams and a vague, locationless physical discomfort.

It's also common as a part of mystical initiation ritual.  I don't know why exactly, but it's one of the "Strange Attractors" explained in Chaoz Majnicks.  A strange attractor is a common thread that shows up in diverse forms of practice.  It can be things like blessed (or cursed) water, ritual stances, things consumed or abstained from, or whatever. 

What interested me when I started readin' up on the crazy was that this common theme shows in both sacred and profane texts with an important difference in mentality. 

For instance, The Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage is a work intended to set one into contact with a Holy Guardian AngelTM that then gives you a bunch of info and spiritual rights needed to gain magical super powers(I know, I know  :x).  It requires of the practitioner a LOT of abstinence from sex and certain foods, daily ritual prayer and meditation on the divine, and other things.  The abstinence is supposed to be total, but there is leeway for getting with the wifey if you absolutely must for her sake.  Then you get right back to the abstaining.  It is both a form of spiritual charge up before a major evocation ceremony and a means to clear the mind of "profane" thought forms. 
I also hear that Crowley fucked this ritual up back when he was with the Golden Dawn, big surprise there.

The contrast and link can be found in the $9.95 book of doom, a paperback version of the old Sumerian invocations that calls it's self "Necronomicon" and was once available at almost any Wal-Mart.  The initiation listed in the book is incomplete and according to the preface authors intentionally distorted.  Whatever.  The important part I'm referring to is a statement that you can worship in the temple of Ishtar during the initiation, but you may not spill thy seed.  That's right, you can get with the temple girls but not to completion.  Repeat this enough times and your state would be pretty close to slathering madman in a month or so.  Just the thing for when you want to give Pazuzu a jingle.

Since you folks don't really know me yet it's important to note that I consider myself no kind of majizzle practitioner.  I do find it fascinating.  I'm pretty sure there's some biological basis for this craziness, and the OP seems like it may point to a real, measurable difference.  I do know for a fact that the abstinence (or just regular fasting) can alter a person's force of will to a certain degree causing a person to act and react in ways that would be perhaps less likely if satiated, but it's not a ride for the faint of heart.
