This one actually happened at Harvard University in October last year.
In a biology class, the professor was discussing the high glucose
levels
found in semen. A young female (freshman), raised her hand and asked,
"If I understand what you are saying, there is a lot of glucose in male
semen, as in sugar?" "That's correct," responded the professor, going
on
to add much statistical data. Raising her hand again, the sweet young
thing 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 realized exactly what she had inadvertently said (or
rather implied), she picked up her books without a word and walked out
of the class. However, as she was going out of 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!
