Back again. Things are flying around quickly. Well,
first I'd like to mention how great NFL is and Viva La Bam. Now, let's get
into today's topic with a heat of rage. I was asked a very odd question today,
by a kid I'll refer to as Rod. So people won't pick on him. He asked me this
- "Does sperm die in the air?"
And seeing as my high school health class didn't aid me at all in the truths
about this, or maybe I was just having too much fun talking about the vagina
and the penis that I didn't pay attention. Whatever the case, I decieded
to turn this into a Hachey Cares subject matter where I actually sit down
do some research and shit.
Well, seeing as I've never done a Hachey Cares subject, let alone do any
studying. I was lost and confussed, much like what I'm supposed to do after
the exhibition of premarital sex is done and completed. Should I turn over
and fall asleep? Should I turn over and smoke a cig? Or should I just play
a video game or two? See these are all good questions. But the question
represented before me by "Rod", is well, so much better! So I went to some
sites. So here's what I found. I'm gona quote things I found to people that
I don't know who's name, so I'll just accept them as my own self study in
this world I call my life.
Sperm can live up to 72 hours (and, on occasion, a day or two longer).
Some thoughts to consider:
* Men with a normal sperm count ejaculate around 250 million sperm each time.
That's almost enough sperm to repopulate the entire United States.
* Obviously, even though sperm can last 3 days or so, most die off quickly,
or are blocked from reaching the egg. It's a long trip up the Fallopian tubes,
and most don't make it. The strongest make it, but only 1 of the 250,000,000
original sperm can penetrate the egg.
* With this in mind, it's no wonder 10% of the population suffers from
infertility. It can be hard to become pregnant. Since 20-50% of all pregnancies
end in miscarriage (either right after conception, or later, with cramping
and bleeding), it's amazing that anyone actually has a baby.
* The above does not apply if you are 14 and having sex, without protection,
for the first time. In this case it seems (tongue in cheek) that the odds
of getting and staying pregnant are about 99.9%!
But that doesn't quite answer Rod's question, so I thought (researched) some
more.
This is a common myth, but sorry, sperm do not spontaneously combust when
they hit the air!
Sperm can usually live up to seven days when they're in the cervical mucus
of a woman's vagina. However, when they're not being nourished and protected
by cervical mucus, vaginal secretions, the warmth and moisture of a man's
urethra and reproductive tract, or other warm and moist conditions, they
die anywhere between a half an hour to four hours.
If you've touched semen, it's a good idea to wash your hands, or at least
wipe them off before touching the vulva or vagina.
And now that does enough for me to answer Rod's question to my liking. But
I'm not quite finished on this sex subject, although the sperm is pretty
much dead, you shall see it rejoice within this next little comment, or two.
Which in itself is birth control, methods, forms and applications. All and
most ways of birth control. So let's list them, bitch!
Methods of Contraception:
Reversible Methods:
Permanent Methods (sterilization):
And well, I just had this crazy thought, what if you had sex in a shower
or something like that. Would that kill of the sperm? And seeing I'm asking
the question, I can't quite answer my own question. So I went to AskMen.com,
it's a webiste. This is what I found.
I do not recommend using a hot tub or shower as a form of birth control.
It does not kill the sperm, but I can see how and where this rumor got started.
The scrotum is the pouch that contains a pair of testes, functioning to maintain
the testes at a temperature approximately 5 degrees lower than the rest of
the body. The process of sperm production is extremely heat sensitive. In
hot temperatures, the muscles in the scrotum relax, and the testes move away
from the heat of the body. In cold temperatures, the muscles of the scrotum
contract, where they can maintain their 5-degree temperature difference.
The heat in a hot tub or shower can indeed interfere with normal sperm
production. Not sufficiently enough, however, that all sperm will die --
in most cases, the number of live sperm is merely reduced but there are still
enough to get a woman pregnant. Also, it is very risky and there is no guarantee
that this will always occur. Men with fertility problems are usually told
to avoid hot tubs, saunas and the like, but this is because they don't want
anything interfering with their sperm production as it is already being
compromised. I strongly urge you to use condoms, even when in the hot tub
or shower, and be sure to correct whomever told you this false information.
So I see this answered that. Thanks to other dumbasses asking the questions
and not me.
Seeing as I titled this as "Words that start with "S", that don't suck",
and seeing as I used Sperm and Sex, that's like two S's, I could talk about
me, 'cause my name is Sean, but I don't think the reader will agree with
me that I don't suck, so let's talk about the coolest Super hero of all-time,
see that starts with a "S" and so doesn't his name. It's Superman! Duh!
So let me introduce you to Ultraman,
the Evil Superman. Here's a little factoid on this character. Before the
Crisis On Infinite Earths, the DC Universe was made up of many "alternate"
earths. On "Earth-3" everything was backwards - the heroes we know were criminals
and the earth's only hero was Lex Luthor! Superman's criminal counterpart
"Ultraman" was the powerhouse of the Crime Syndicate, gained a new super-power
every time he was exposed to Kryptonite.
Alright, that's enough dealing with words that start with "S", and that don't
suck. So let's talk about things that do SUCK. My bro's football team lost,
so they're done. I wonder if would have helped if Coach Dumbass actually
played the players who know what football is! Gesh, another loss, wow, I
wonder if he really knows how to coach.
Well, I'm losing concentration so I'll end this talk of one on one masturbation.
