          It’s pretty clear that it insuates the sperm that fertilized his mother’s egg in his conception was not the best sperm.

            I understand the insinuation, and it doesn’t make sense. It implies that a person is the sum of all the plethora of sperm inside a single ejaculation.

              Not if you look at it the way I just described it and you replied to.

                If he exists, then he was conceived. If he was conceived, sperm fertilized an egg. If that sperm was part of a larger ejaculation, there were tens of millions of sperm involved.

                For the saying to make any sense, you need to believe that a person is the sum of those tens of millions of sperm, and not just the one that successfully fertilized the egg. Otherwise, it wasn’t a part of him that ran down the leg.

                  You once again ignored the interpretation I offered you. Just go back and reread it. It would have been faster than making that pointless comment.
