This one actually happened at Harvard University. In a biology class, the professor was discussing the high
glucose levels found in semen. A young female (freshman), raised
her hand and asked,
"If I understand what you are saying,there is a lot of glucose in
male semen,as in sugar?" "That's correct."responded the professor,
going on to add much statistical data.Raising her hand again, the sweet
young thing asked , "Then why doesn't it taste sweet?". After a stunned
silence,
the whole class burst out laughing, the poor girl turned bright
red and
as she realized exactly what she had inadvertently said (or
rather
implied),she picked up her books without a word and walked out of
the
class,and never returned.However,as she was going out of the
door,the
professor's reply was a classic.Totally straight-faced, he
answered her
question,
"It doesn't taste sweet because the taste-buds for sweetness are
on the
tip of your tongue and not in the back of your throat!"
