    I think the bigger problem is the female astronauts slonking around the cabin crotch-first

    it’s highly unlikely, fluids stick together and make drops in the air which you can easily see and avoid. and also, come on, women getting accidentally impregnated by sperm floating through the air is even less likely that women getting accidentally impregnated by sperm swimming in the water of the public swimming pool …

      These guys never heard of a “posh-wank?”

      Edit: a posh wank is when you jerk it wearing a condom. Its also helpful if ur guy that doesnt like “the feel of condoms”

        Semen isn’t gravity fed so I don’t think the lack of it would make a difference.

    “Three female astronauts can be impregnated by the same man on the same session… it finds its way,” Smyth replied.

    Not buying it at all… I’m not saying it’s impossible but the odds must be astronomical (no pun intended) just for one pregnancy… not even in a million years. Life finds a way, I know, but come on!

      No, it’s true. Female astronauts usually float around up there with their twats out; spread wide open to air it out, and nearly every time a male astronaut blasts some rope, it floats straight to it obviously.

    I don’t think there will be any problem if you do it with just one hand instead of two, since you’ll need the other hand to hold onto something. Although they have all sorts of straps there, so the problem is completely made up.
