This happened at a major Australian University, during a biology
lecture. A professor was discussing the high glucose levels found in
semen. A young woman raised her hand and asked, "If I understand you
correctly, you are saying there is as much glucose in male semen as in
sugar?"The professor responded, "yes, that's correct", adding some
statistical data to his lecture. Raising her hand again, the girl
asked, "Then why doesn't it taste sweet?" After a stunned silence, the
whole class burst out laughing The poor girl turned bright red, and as
she realised exactly what she had inadvertently said, she picked up her
books, and without another word, walked out of the class - and never
returned. However, as she was heading for the door, the professor's
reply was a classic. Totally straight faced, he answered her question.
"It doesn't taste sweet because the taste-buds for sweetness are on the
tip of your tongue and not in the back of your throat." !
