Swallowing is killing?

If you swallow s*men are you technically killing or eating your child? Are you killing a life? Or is it not considered eating your child? Confused as to when it is considered an actual lifeform.

Answer #1

Yes it is a cell, but only contains half the chromosomes necessary to become a foetus. Until it fertilizes an egg, it is not a “person” any more than the egg is a person. Seman contains millions and millions of sperm cells, only one or two make it to an egg, and fertilize it into becoming a living being.

Answer #2

Nope. A sperm is just a little cell, it isn’t life yet. If that were the case we would be killing our own kids all the time because everyone(well most) has sperm in their bodies anyways. Reminds me of the quote “your mom should have swallowed you”… lol its so mean but amusing.

Answer #3

sh*t I just put my kids on your moms face lolz

Answer #4

Actually, it is indeed a cell, it just has only half a set of chromosomes. That doesn’t make it any less of a cell.

Answer #5

No, SPERM IS NOT A CELL

it’s not a whole cell at all, if it was it couldn’t fertilize the egg because it wouldn’t be lacking.

Answer #6

LOL

Answer #7

as stephanie said really, the sperm is just a cell, its not a child it would have to have penetrated an egg. if you ate that then you would be (but its not even possible really) so no, sperm arnt little kids unless there inside an female egg theres no harm done at all

Answer #8

sperm is wasted everyday. if sperm were a life then every time you masturbated you would be murdering millions, haha.

Answer #9

YUK!

Answer #10

That’s disgusting!
