To put this into perspective, a man's body produces millions and millions of sperm cells in his lifetime. Each cell can end up in either of four ways.

- It is ejaculated by masturbation, and dies outside the body's warmth.

- It is ejaculated during intercourse, and even if the woman gets pregnang by one of the many sperm cells, most of them end up in the toilet.

- The man does not ejaculate for a long time, and the sperm are reabsorbed by his body. That is, the individual cell is dissolved and its molecules are available for reuse by the body.

- A few times in the man's lifetime, one of the sperm cells does match up with an egg in the body of his wife or partner, producing a baby.

If you are concerned that masturbating is "wasting" sperm, that makes as much sense as to say that if you pass a stream and don't get a drink of its water, you are wasting the water. You could masturbate hundreds of times while single, and even on occasion while you are married, and still have plenty of sperm cells to contribute to the next generation.
