There is a tendency for hilarious things regarding bodily functions that seem to always happen around me. I admit, I most often am the gifted engineer, the blind watchmaker, if you will, guiding such events to fruition to the delight of everyone around me, or at least, myself. Our PBL seminar class was covering a case last week involving infertility, and it was my job to deliver a mini presentation on the causes and diagnostic signs of male infertility. The conversation that began as soon as I opened my mouth, went like this:
Me: "....On average, the sperm count of a normal fertile male should be around 20 million/cc, and our patient has only 10 million/cc. In total, the typical male produces 100 million/cc per ejaculatory period, with 5 cc being the average...and"
Girl : [interuppting me] "Oh wait...really? Only 5 cc? Because I swear it's more, sometimes, I mean..." [turning bright red] "Oh, god, well, that's... I'm going to stop talking now."
The fact that she was the only married person in our seminar made it abundantly obvious about to whom she was referring. My group leader, a 4th year med student, added a final comment:
"Well, I'm sure it depends on how often the guy gets off and how much gets emitted. Phil, you wanna research that too?"
