I was being recruited to design and develop a machine that sorted bull semen into male and female and I half jokingly said I’d consider it if i could have the title of Sr Semen Sorter and manager said ok. COVID stopped the project though

At first I was like "good luck finding that female semen..." Then I realized I'm just dumb.

Yeah I'm still not getting it lol

[–] Glytch 18 points 5 months ago (3 children)

In case you seriously aren't getting it, it would sort sperm based on whether it had an "x" or a "y" chromosome

Shit ok that's what I thought but I misremembered some biology and told myself that's not how it works lmao.

You can separate bull semen? I don't want to Google this. How is this done?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

No need to Google

You can separate bull semen

by just using your mouth. Hope this helps!
