There are 5 billion other "quickest sperm cells" in this world.

I never understood this analogy, since half of you was also an egg-cell.

That is a poor style of thinking. After all there are many more planets in this solar system. Many other solar systems in this galaxy. And so on and so on.

Context matters. Worry more about the satisfaction you gain from your life, and less what other people think. Pro tip: they probably worry more about themselves then they do about you.

Wish my skills as a sperm transferred to real life

>implying you weren't pushed to the front by other sperm

you were literally coasting on the work of others before you were even conceived

i guess we were all white at one point

If you try something there's a chance you may fail, but if you don't try at all you have no chance of succeeding.

why dont sperm count as organisms in their own right?

>>17717418
Except you aren't sperm, that's just an ingredient that made you.

You are just the result of a biochemical reaction -- substances that got close enough together reacted in a way that made you.

Anyone can make that same reaction with the right ingredients, and they have for millions of years, trillions of times, in ways that were formed better than you.

They're cells, you peanut. Do you count the rest of your cells as individual organisms? I mean, you can, but then who the fuck are you? Are you just a hive of microorganisms?

Because they're not consciously aware like an actual human being. They're also unicellular, while humans are multicellular organisms. It's like saying "drinking milk is like eating a cow because it comes from the same source".

>implying multicellular organisms are consciously aware
Talked to a lot of trees lately?

Singular celled organisms are still organisms. Ever heard of algae? Sperm, however, are not seperate from us. We do have nonhuman organisms living in out bodies. In fact, most of the organic material in our bodies are bacteria, and not human at all - but sperm is not part of this group. Sperm are human cells, just like bone cells, muscle cells, nerve cells, etc.

None of the above are conscious in the way we understand ourselves to be, but they do behave in accordance with their environment, communicating by chemical signals, and receiving electric, photonic, chemical information which are read by their organelles - the cell's equivalent to the body's organs.

You completely missed the point of what I was trying to say. Yes, trees are aware in their own way, and I also never implied that unicellular organisms aren't organisms. Sperm cells are just that, they're cells.
