Semen in a woman, sorry if question is naive, might be disgusting ???


How long does semen stay in a woman is seems like it must take a concerted effort to carry a load of semen in yourself, from what I assumed or know usually women go to the bathroom after sex and the semen slides out of them on the toilet an urinating is also natures way or clearing the the path again.

I can understand traces of semen, it this what they refer to when they say that's what they found? Because carrying a man's full orgasm in your orifice does not seem possible unless strong willful effort is practiced. When a woman stands after sex gravity usually tends to slide the semen out of the vagina most women shuffle to the bathroom and let it drool out, so how come in this movie it is said her semen was inside her? Was she keeping it there on purpose?? OR are these small trace amounts were talking about?

It doesn't take much to get a dna sample. It can be smaller than the naked eye. As a woman I can tell you yes it does slide out but not all of it. Even if you take a shower it will sometimes still not come all out. They could have also swapped her thighs or hair if she had any or any clothes it got on. They can find dna on a body that has been outside for days.

I think "ooze" creates a better visual (or maybe "trickle") 

Surely you meant "swabbed" 

I think semen can live in a woman's body for almost 5 days depending on the situation. So they would have caught it in her autopsy.

It doesn't matter if the sperm is alive or not. It's bodily fluid that contains DNA, you don't even need much to test for it.

You didn't actually say that a woman urinating removes the semen did you? Have you ever been with a woman? Her urethra and vagina are two different things entirely.....

Lol,

I was laughing at that part. I think someone needs to take a health class. They were at least right about the urinating after thing but not because of the reason they gave but so we don't get uti's.
