Each time a man doesn't use his sperm for making babies, does he kill the living creatures?

Answer 1

Even if he does impregnate someone, there will still be millions of sperm that die. I try not to get upset about it.

Answer 2

Even when a man "makes babies," only one sperm survives to fuse with the egg, with maybe hundreds of millions of others not surviving.

I personally don't consider sperm a living organism, in the same way that I wouldn't consider a lone red blood cell to be a living organism. YOU are one organism, composed of many different cells which alone do not constitute individual organisms. YOU (if you are a male) have hundreds of millions of sperm cells (not babies or even unique organisms) in your testes right now.

Also, it is not correct to say all Eukaryotic cells are living organisms, as in the last post. The websites below have the requirements for life, and you can easily see why individual cells are not considered living organisms.

Answer 3

If you consider that human cells are Eukaryotic then the answer would be YES
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryote
There are six major kingdoms in the Tree of Life.
Archaea, Prokaryote, Eukaryotic, Fungi, Plant, Animal
the way Scientist decide what living thing goes into what kingdom is entirely based on the composition of the cellular structures. Thus, all human cells are Living Creatures!!!
The only thing that separates humans from coconuts or bananas or bacteria or ameobas are a few items in our cells.
So even a sperm cell is considred living, sort of.

Answer 4

If this question is at all religiously motivated (which it is) I am going to puke (which have will, eh have).

EVERYTHING to do with ejaculation is natural. A typical sperm concentration is 10 million per mL. A typical ejaculate can range from 3-10 mL. So lets say there are about 50 million sperm in an average ejaculate.

During intercourse, with a fertile female, 1 of these sperm will penetrate the egg and become a zygote (except in the case of fraternal twins, triplets etc.). The others die and are absorbed by the female.

In the case of non intercourse related ejaculation events. None of the sperm live and are absorbed by something else like a paper towel.

Either way, there's one hell of alot of death involved. THIS IS THE WAY LIFE EVOLVED SEXUAL REPRODUCTION TO PROCEED.

If JEEZ-SIS dosn't like it he can kiss my ***. I suggest you don't spend another minute feeling guilty about the moral implications of ejaculation.

Answer 5

Of course not, life starts when sperm fertilize an egg. As long as it is not fertilizing, you are killing nothing other than cells of your body. Every day cells in your body also dies, skin cells, hair follicle cells, can you avoid that? They die for good and to be renewed, so nothing to worry about. They even die for the sake of your life, in the case of cancer cells (they must die if you want to live).

Answer 6

the egg as well as the sperm are not creatures until the egg becomes fertilized by the sperm

Answer 7

each time u want to make babies u only need 1 sperm and tte rest maybe a couple of million will die. so it is okay. i know sperm is goog for the face. maybe not to waste u can rub some of yours on ur wife's face. true it is good for the face.

Answer 8

I find it hard to believe that the sperm which fertilized your mom's egg was the best of the bunch.

Answer 9

yes, imagine what a murderer you are, when you jack off or have sex you kill millions of creatures.
i man, get a life, and a brain, sperm isn`t "living creature" it`s just cells. it`s like saying "every time i cut my nails/hair/remove boogers off my nose i kill something?" yes dude, you just killed some brain cells.

Answer 10

....n evn when he contributes dem to making babies...its jst one outta millions of sperms that make their way to form a zygote...n hence a baby...
