So since this post scared the piss out of me when I first read it, I asked my dad. He said quit thinking about sex so much and look it up. I did, multiple sources. Everybody who says its near impossible is right according to what I read. But a couple of the reasons they list are not exactly accurate according to the sites I checked.

Sperm does die when it "hits" the air, but sperm doesn't hit air until the semen it's swimming in dries up. So guys, those gobs we've left on various places around the house contain living sperm for up to an hour if the gob stays wet enough and warm enough. A fertility specialist waits an hour to check a sperm sample for live sperm. After an hour a specialist expects 50% of the sperm to still be alive, and swimming strong.

The little guys are swimmers not climbers. As long as there is a wet warm path into the vagina, there is the possibilty that one of them could swim up into the vagina, then into the tubes. Also learned that it is very true that the environment inside the vagina is not good for sperm...but for the ones that make it to the tubes, the environment is much better. Specialists expect a sperm that has reached the tubes to live for up to five days because it's a good environment for them. Thats why women who have sex a few days before they produce their egg, still get pregnant. Some of the super sperm were waiting around when the egg got there.

So, back to the odds. A couple that has regular no protection sex for a year has a 80-90% chance of getting pregnant. That's if the semen is deposited well inside the woman. Even then only about 250 of the half billion we shoot on average even make it to the tubes, and only one will fertilize the egg. Your situation is nowhere near that "ideal". There would have to have been a lot of moisture down there, I mean wet every where, then this one sperm has got to find its way all the up to the tubes, where nearly 100% fail under ideal circumstances.

Impossible? According to what I read. Damn near. Probable, highly likely? Absolutely not.

And me and six of my friends want to thank you for asking this question .
