On Graham Norton the other night, Joan Rivers made the comment that
semen contained something in excess of 400 calories per serving (or
ounce, or something.)

A typical ejaculation fills up about one teaspoon; the actual amount
is determined by a man's age (younger men usually make more semen),
when he last ejaculated, and how long he's aroused before ejaculating,
among other factors. Contrary to what you've heard, semen is not
loaded with calories. Each teaspoon of ejaculate has about 5 - 7
calories and some 200 - 500 million sperm. Since sperm make up only
about 1 percent of semen, what accounts for the other 99 percent?
Well, its other ingredients include:
* Fructose sugar
* Water
* Ascorbic acid (a.k.a., vitamin C)
* Citric acid
* Enzymes
* Protein
* Phosphate and bicarbonate buffers (bases)
* Zinc
Can swallowing semen enrich a poor diet? Unless you're gulping gallons
of it each day, it's no substitute for real nutritious cuisine.

It is suggested that there are 6mg of protein in semen. There are 24g
of protein in a pork chop.

Rumors abound regarding semen and the health risks it may pose,
especially when it comes to fellatio (oral stimulation of the penis)
and the hotly debated question, ?should I spit or swallow?? Typically,
a male ejaculates one tablespoon of fluid, which contains about 10%
sperm and 90% seminal fluid (comprised of simple sugars, protein, and
small amounts of vitamins, minerals and hormones). The amount of
protein found in seminal fluid is very small, and estimated at only
about 6mg. Your standard three-ounce pork chop has about 24g, so I
wouldn?t give up your beef and beans any time soon. Well-Woman has
also received questions from students worried about the caloric
content of male ejaculate. However, you won?t find more than 5-10
calories in one tablespoon of cum, so contrary to popular speculation
swallowing is not going to make you fat. But more important than
counting calories or measuring protein intake, you need to consider
the risks of contracting a sexually transmitted infection (STI) when
engaging in unprotected oral sex. Using condoms dramatically decreases
your chance of contracting an STI through oral sex. Ultimately though,
there have been no studies that suggest that swallowing healthy,
disease-free semen has detrimental affects to one?s health.

It looks like Columbia might be the place to be if you're interested
in meeting women who are up-to-date with the nutritional qualities of
semen.
