When the biology teacher is talking about reproduction, and says that there is sucrose in semen, do not ask in front of the entire class 'Then why doesn't it taste sweet?'
The answer will be irrelevant once you realize exactly what it is you just said. Your friends will never let you hear the end of it.

Good lord, there are a lot of old jokes on this site.
Seriously. Did you read the one where the girl says, “Then why does it taste so salty?” and just wait a year to post your own version? Ugh.
Exactly…. and it’s pathetic that the site let it posted..
Right. Because we all know no one ever asks this. Nope! Not even teens, despite their reputation for not really thinking before they speak.
Well, aside from the fact that semen does not contain Sucrose, and thus would not have been said in school.
Actually, this happened to a girl when my sister was in biology… so… yeah…
Option A: this really happened (apparently for the billionth time) to someone in your sister’s biology class.
Option B: your sister heard the joke and passed it off as original, just like the author of this fail.
A or B. I know which one I believe.
that’s exactly what I was going to say.
I heard that one in about 1989… though it was told as something that my friend had actually witnessed (in her Health class at a relatively progressive co-ed Catholic School).
All I can imagine is being 30, taking nursing school prerequisites among serious adult students, and asking that question, and every other woman, and some men, in the class nodding or chiming in, “Yeah, why does it taste like that?” No big fat hairy deal.
Ew. Just ew.
n00b, LOL
Yes, I’ve heard this one before. Yes, I believe there are many teenagers and young people who haven’t. No, I can’t accept there are intelligent people who comment on LFMF who seriously believe everyone has heard all the old jokes.
^This
The complaint about this one is not whether or not people have heard it before. The complaint is about the person who submitted this, having obviously copied it from an old joke but trying to pass it off as their own.
Maybe it was trying to be passed off as their own, but maybe not. Teens really do things like this without realizing what they are doing. As catflap said it is quite possible that the people involved in this thought it was completely original. How many weird things did you see / hear happen while growing up and thought they never happened to anyone else?
Sure, but it still didn’t happen to this person, who may or may not be a teen. It’s a transparently bull**** post. Lame and pathetic, whether the joke is old or not.

^this.
such an old joke that it’s on snopes.
we had a slower lady in our anatomy/physiology class (nursing prereq) who asked why there is sucrose in semen. before i had a chance to process the stupidity of the question, someone yelled out, “to make it taste better. duh.”
Snopes has this one on its site. VERY old joke, the girl or young man asking this question.
Isn’t there a very similar joke about semen in the saliva?
Wait! I NEED A LAB PARTNER!
See, this joke is so old and so obviously fake that even Mm can’t be bothered to show up with some superfluous remark on (presumably) premarital blowjobs.
Because the tastebuds for sweet are on the front of your tongue not the back of your throat!!!
Actually, a misconception.
Tastebuds are not specifically mapped the same way for every person. There was a study group in which the ‘flavor map’ of the tongue we are all familiar with was used as an example, but not as the end conclusion.
Everyone’s taste buds are organized differently; it’s why we all like different things. It strikes the tongue differently and you get a different taste than another person would. Psychology also has some play in that area, but a big part of it is the tongue itself.
It can taste sweet but it’s depending on the guy’s whole lifestile, like what he eats/drinks on regular basis, if he’s smoker or not, etc.
I challenge you to tell me whether or not I smoke via this test
I’ve heard that ingesting large amounts of pineapple can change the flavor. Unfortunately, no one’s ever volunteered to test this for me. Also, I f*cking hate pineapples.
You’d have thought that the very simple logic of ‘if it tasted better you’d get used as a lollypop hell of a lot more’ would have occurred to men in general by now.
But alas… The Russian Roulette of Funkyspunk is a game that must be played in life.
Ancient joke.
Besides, it doesn’t taste particularly sweet most of the time.
FRAUD!
It is low cal though.5 calories on average. please don’t ask where i learned this. you really really do NOT want to know
It doesn’t taste sweet because the sweet receptors are on the tip of your tongue, and not the back of your throat.
According to my older sister’s biology teacher.
