  • Word Usage
    "The term semen is, indeed, often applied to the secretion of the testicles alone; but to avoid misunderstanding, Fürbringer [8] recommends that only the mixed secretion, as actually discharged, should be spoken of as the semen, and that this term should never be employed to denote the testicular secretion alone."
