Best Answer

male sperm only live witin the first 24 hours of being ejaculated, male sperm travel faster than female sperm and so they die off faster female sperm travel slower and live about 2-3 days longer. one of the reasons male sperm die off faster is because the female body is fighting them off first. by the time the female sperm travel through the body the defenses have already been taken up.

Can a girl get pregnant if sperm falls on the undergarments of the girl?

Absolutely not. Men ejaculate 300 to 400 million sperm in 1 ejaculation. Sperm can not live for more than a day outside of the male penis (testicles) and it does not live in the vaginal area any longer than 3 days. If a sperm fell onto the undergarments of a female you would not see it, nor would it live long enough for it to get someone pregnant.
