Some background statistics based on the book "Sperm Wars" by Robin Baker,  University of Manchester.
   On average a man between puberty (I suggest age 15 y) and 30 years produces 300 million sperm/day (300,000,000).
   On average a man between 30 y and 50 years produces 230 million sperm/day (230,000,000)
   On average a man between 50 and 75 years produces 50 million sperm/day      (50,000,000)

The last two sperm/day numbers were calculated as follows:
At age 50 years the average man produces 175 million/day -- so averaging 300 million/day and 175 million/day you get 230 million/day.
At age 70 years the average man produces 20 million/day -- so I could average 175 million and 20 million, but to be on the safe side I decreased it to 50 million/day (keeping my results on the conservative side -- I will round lower for the calculations that follow).
   Each sperm has a unique set of DNA.
   These sperm will appear in intercourse,  masturbation, nocturnal emission.  They all have to go somewhere.

   On average 2 to 3 offspring survive that will reproduce.  This average seems to be fairly constant in modern societies, agricultural societies and in hunter-gatherer societies.  So, for all generations it hovers around 2 to 3 reproducing survivors.  On average, 2 to 3 sperm will result in the fertilization of eggs that results in 2 or 3 reproducing individuals -- the rest of the sperm are doomed.

Kind of sperm:
An average man produces 3 kind of sperm:
   (1) Killer Sperm constitute about 83% of all the sperm -- these are sperm that attack any sperm from another man that may be in the woman. These sperm carry a lethal dose of poison in their head, seek out foreign sperm and inject it with this poison, killing it.  Apparently after a few injections the Killer Sperm has spent all it's energy and also dies.

   (2) Blocker Sperm constitute about 16% of all the sperm -- these try to block entrances and storage places so that any sperm from another man cannot reach the woman's egg.

   (3) Egg Getter Sperm constitute about1% of all the sperm -- these are the sperm that can possibly fertilize the woman's egg if they ever get there.

So 99% of sperm make war on other men's sperm to  annihilate them so that they won't fertilize the woman's egg, and 1% have the potential to fertilize the woman's egg.

Have you read all of Sprem Wars?  It is a fascinating book.

"Entrances and storage places?" What the hell? Do women have sperm warehouses hidden in there or something?

Ban Killer Sperm...



that brings to mind the thought, "More thrust per squeeze."
