Actually there are two completing forces at work here. Semen is composed of sperm, water and several proteins and enzymes. One protein is a coagulating protein, the purpose of which is to make sure that the semen stays in a mass inside the mate and doesn't run back out. One of the enzymes is a de-coagulating enzyme which is supposed to dissolve the coagulating protein after some time, releasing the sperm bound up in the coagulated mass. This combination dramatically improves the chances of impregnation. In the shower the de-coagulating enzyme gets washed away rather quickly, leaving behind the coagulating protein, thus instant spermy glue.
