Of course not although I think you're just getting pedantic now. I love certain microtonal music by way of but you carry on at this if you want. You only seem interested in semantics rather than honest debate.

Nope. I'll grant you your perfect pitch.
It seems important to you.
Now let's hear your theory on wet dreams.

Only 83%?
I like the way you put the 'only' in front of a significantly high percentage anyway so kudos for that. In fact I'm not altogether unconvinced that you're just messing about here for laughs as it is...

As opposed to your initial estimate of 100%, 83% earned itself a leading "only."
And really, I'm being honest.

Would you grant someone synesthesia as well? It's not important to me dude, it just happens to be. If you could think outside of the box you might just happen to realize that certain things exist independent of choice or internal/external factors.
Natural bodily depletion? What's your explanation for what "only" 83% of men experience?

Do you have evidence, or is this mere speculation?
83% of guys have had erotic dreams.
Women have sleep orgasms, too.
Did they need to deplete excess semen?

If I wake up in a cold sweat because of a nightmare, is that because my body had to get rid of excess sweat?

Where did I estimate it at 100%? I would have put it at a very high percentage for sure, more than 83% to be quite honest but certainly not 100. Even if you haven't experienced such yourself you're certainly not shying away from the fact that it exists - and on a prevalent level at that.

It seems the most logical course unless you want to start backing succubi again? Else why would dreams cause most people to orgasm at some point in their life? Nobody chooses their dreams do they? If not then the male body at least ejaculates 'useless semen' at some point(s) in life. Given that you acknowledge that it's at least 83% then it would follow that this is a naturally occurring phenomenon...
Or why not?

Seeing it now, without the context...
Yes, that was a strange sequence of words.

I doubt it but considering you're one of the few percent who haven't actually had a 'wet dream' it's probably moot anyway.

I think this response might be the first thing in all my time on TOL that made me literally LOL.

Ok.
So if a scary dream can make someone sweat, without indicating a need to deplete excess sweat, it follows that an erotic dream can make someone ejaculate, without indicating a need to deplete excess semen.
What happens to the guys that don't have nocturnal emissions? They explode?

What, the 17% of those who apparently never have such nocturnal experiences in their life? Well, no, they obviously don't. Anything but in fact...

I just don't think there's any evidence for this supposed surplus-semen theory.
Feel free to cite some reference on the matter.

Well, just going with your own link - that 83% of men experience ejaculation through dreams - has pretty much answered you on the particular. You've kinda already answered yourself and just aren't comfortable with the outcome of the equation?

There's nothing about any causes in the wikipedia article.
You're just speculating.
