The only solution I was looking for in the sperm thread was trying to establish if that brief period during which the sperm was being stored in seminal fluid might be a viable area to study in evolution. ---

I dunno. If you **Beck** meant ‘thinking with your genitals gets you nowhere’ and that’s what **HoneyBadger** meant as well, then yes it’s skeevy. If he took your meaning to be ‘Thinking with a mind that is wrong gets you nowhere’ (I thought that is what you meant at fist as well) then not skeevy. ---

It never even crossed my mind until I went back and reread it. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/questions-about-asking-questions/992857.md?page=1)
