Viewed my sperm cells for the first time :P

Method of specimen collection?
 
I really hope this is a true story.
 
Pretty gross bro. Were you really able to follow those fast moving spermatids under the microscope?
 
Did the " 😛 " imply that you also licked them?
 
:laugh: Was it a lab collection or did you obtain the specimen from the field?
 
If this is true, wtf is wrong with you?
 
Did you start this thread from your lab computer?
If you did, Did you wash your hands before that?

LMAO, As soon as I read the thread title, I spit my water out all over my desk...
 
Wow, I didn’t expect so many posts to come up within just a few minutes of starting the thread.

Don’t pretend you don’t know it.

I really hope this is a true story.
What makes you suspicious?

They weren’t fast-moving at all, they were actually really sluggish. That’s normal because they don’t reach their maximal speed until later.

If this is true, wtf is wrong with you?
What do you mean? I don’t see how this is gross/wrong.
 
Strong post to troll-face avatar ratio.

But for whats its worth, ive always wanted to try this.

I'm not sure if I can post this here, but I just want to share it with you guys. I was the only one present in my microbiology open lab hours today so I viewed my sperms under a 400x magnification. It was interesting to confirm with my own eyes that they really exist in the semen, not something that are merely said to exist by the textbook! I could also see the sperm's thick "neck" where loads of mitochondria are believed to be stored for energy. I was so impressed with what I saw that I stared at them for 20 minutes. It was like watching a movie. The class previously viewed motile bacteria under the microscope, but they were no match for sperms in terms of elegance and beauty. 👍

😱 :eyebrow::wow::uhno::wtf:

Certainly takes balls to do that in lab.
 
I don't see whats wrong with it. I'd be nice to know if I was sterile. This is no different than giving yourself a urinalysis in physiology lab, which is something that I did. Why would anyone find this disgusting? Did you grow up in a sexually repressive household? Maybe you think the baby jesus is looking down on you if you do this? :laugh:
 
I'm sure you used the female anatomy section of your textbook to get the job done, you freak.

Or your dead granny's ghost saying you will have hairy palms.

At some point in american history, jacking off was punishable by having the tip of your penis sewn together.
 
It must have been really hard to pull this off.
Not really. I did this during the morning open lab hours, which are usually the least crowded, with the afternoon being the most popular time.

Thank you! Finally someone who shares my viewpoint.

 
Oh come now, you guys cannot all deny at least having some notion of wanting to do this while alone in lab. Instead, should not the OP be heralded for his scientific curiosity and ability to appreciate and observe nature's finest? This, ladies and gentlemen, is a true scientist (or just a basement-dwelling hairy stinky nerd).

A quick pubmed search reveals that there have been hundreds of human semen studies. How do you think they've procured their samples hmm? 🙂

You masturbated in a lab, i.e. a public place. How do you not find that strange? If you got caught, I'm sure whoever found you would think it was gross and wrong.

Why would he have to prepare the slide in the same place he viewed it?

Well that's what I'm assuming, since he said the lab was empty. I don't care where he did it, I still think it's extremely weird. If someone were to ask him what he was looking at, it would've been pretty awkward.
 
OP: if your professor gets pissed because no one went to lab, you're safe because you have proof that you came.

:laugh: Honestly, I was just a little concerned that the title says for the "first time". Are you planning a repeat occurrence, OP?
 
Haha, what if someone walked in?

"Hey bro, what's that stuff you're looking at?"
"..."
":scared:"

Also I hope that you didn't simply rinse off the slide and send it off to be reused by some poor chap. :laugh:

Oh ok, morning wood be the best time to go in the lab and milk all of those resources that are available to you.
 
why would this be gross. My ex girlfriend had a microscope, and she was interested in taking a look at my boys...you know see if they could swim. Turned out they can.
 
This is the best thread I've ever read in my life. I am now bookmarking this so I can show my children someday.
