    It can transmit STIs, but that depends on the health of the producer. But that covers more “is it sterile” than “is it hygienic”. It has a bunch of things that are great for sperm that are also great for many microorganisms if it’s left around. So: clean in up and dispose of it. It will quickly become a medium for all sorts of things to grow. Do not keep it in a jar with Rainbow Dash on a radiator.

      I’ll keep this in mind the next time I’m at work.

    Semen is like body waste products: it is safe to consume your own but you should not consume other’s on a daily basis.

      It’s completely safe to swallow semen daily, where did you hear otherwise?

      Obviously, as another user noted there’s an STD concern, but as long as it’s a trusted source, I don’t know of any health issues that could come up.

        I don’t know of any health issues that could come up.

        If you swallow cum, a baby will grow inside your stomach and you will die, because the digestive tract cannot accommodate birthing. You will explode in a fit of dead-baby diarrhea.

      Exactly what other waste products do you think are safe to consume? In my understanding they range from “never” to “Dear God why would you ever think to do that?”

        You can safely drink your urine and eat your feces. You can also eat cerumen or nasal mucus. It’s considered disgusting by a majority of people, yes. But it is pretty much safe.

          Eating poop is very much NOT safe. Don’t do this kids.

          If you want a professional’s opinion check out this video (SFW). I was disgusted and very interested throughout the whole thing.
