A member asked:
If you masturbate on a place a lot of people touch (without anything on) and those germs spread around, can sperm or semen somehow stay alive on those spots?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sperm die very quickly if exposed to air, water, soap etcetera. Sperm survive in warm moist environment as found in vagina or uterus as well as frozen when preserved for artificial insemination. Thus sperm produced by masturbation have very short survival time unless used for insemination.
