Semen (and female reproductive fluid) contain sugar in the form of fructose and glucose; which the spermatozoa convert to energy to move their tails (flagellae) through a process called glycolysis.

How it tastes depends on which part of the tongue it hits as the sweet tastebuds are located on the tip and the bitter at the back.

(That A-Level in biology has really paid off! )

I suspect that this 'biology teacher' now lives in a 6x6 grey room, which he shares with a 22 stone man called Shirley and has a bucket for a toilet
