No, not at all. Sperm actually has some good nutrients in it.
However, you can still get STDs from having oral sex (whether you swallow or not).

I'm pretty sure I know exactly what you mean. And the answer is generally, no. There is no substance in... what you're asking about that will make a normal human being ill by swallowing it.
The exception is that you CAN contract STDs by swallowing, IF you have open sores in your mouth and your partner is infected. So in that sense it's not entirely safe. However, there is no risk of pregnancy as long as everything is swallowed.
The content of... what you're asking about is mostly water, with a small amount of glucose, a few hormones, and a very small fraction of genetic material. I believe I've read that the calorie content of the average, er, portion is under 100 calories, so it has a negligible effect on your total caloric intake (assuming that you're not, um, consuming so many portions that the calories add up to a significant portion of the average 2,000 calorie daily diet. And if you ARE, someone somewhere is a very, very lucky man.)
So while there are people who are made ill at the THOUGHT of swallowing, that's an attitude and not a physical characteristic of... what you're asking about. The substance itself is perfectly safe for human consumption, and in fact the consumption of it is something that is much appreciated by the, er, producer.
If you have any other, more specific questions, please don't hesitate to ask. And... bon appetit. :-)

it depends on what you are swallowing...if you mean your b/f"s c-m then as long as he is healthy then go for it...hardly any calories and made up of mostly proteins...might taste a little weird but all guys don't taste the same...you might gag if he holds your head so make sure he doesnt do that and if its to much to swallow at one time let some ooze out of your mouth and you should be fine

Yes, you can get sick from it. Just like anything else you put into your body - your body can have a bad reaction to it.
If you get sick- don't swallow anymore.

I would imagine you would get sick to your stomach if you swallow a lot of it... like if you're a h00ker or something.....
