I know, I know, it’s kind of a sensitive topic, but it’s just too important to get all embarrassed and keep quiet about. You see, there are a bunch of scientists who are getting worried because more and more sperm all the time are misshapen with two heads or two tails, or they’re just not good a swimming. And when the sperm can’t do their job right…well, it doesn’t take a PhD to realize what happens then – it
