Review # 1 was written on 2019-05-28 00:00:00 Stephen Young The themes in thus book could have been bettrr developed. The chapters on depiction of sperm in sexual education and anthropomorphism of sperm form some of the distinguishing features of this book. The chapters on forensics and on sperm banks are surprisingly shallow. In essence, reading just the last chapter titled 'the future of sperm' is better than reading the whole book. It presents all the ideas of the book, summarised. The rest of the book has little else to add to your knowledge

Review # 2 was written on 2008-05-19 00:00:00 Hgj Jhgj Had a friend lend this one to me after reading it for a Sociology course. It was fairly interesting--wittingly written and fast paced--but I felt at times that some of Moore's ideas weren't fully developed. Though it was 150 pages on sperm alone, I think she could have done more inquiry into some of the issues she was raising. For instance, she had a chapter that dealt with sex work/pornography, but it was as though she only gave an overview of the basics rather than really delving into things. She gave a few brief testimonials from sex workers, but failed to look into their feelings on the subject at hand--how a culture of semen can extend into gender construction. She talks about how they "manage" men by managing the potential toxicity of the johns' cum, but doesn't ask them what they believe that says about their performances as women, as women in their specific occupation, and the men they're dealing with. But though it had its flaws, namely my problem with Moore's seemingly incomplete study and articulation of this culture of cum, I think the book was at the least a really fascinating and entertaining read, and--if a bit half-hearted at points--she attempts to be really comprehensive in her analysis.
