Pregnant by swimming?

The pool can be a dangerous place: Kids can get sunburned or slip on the wet deck. But can the pool get you pregnant?

Magdalena Kwiatkowska of Poland thinks you can. She is suing an Egyptian hotel because she claims her 13-year-old daughter became impregnated after swimming in its pool during their recent holiday. Ms.Kwiatkowska says that there must have been errant sperm floating around just waiting to implant themselves in an unsuspecting female taking a dip. She swears that her daughter did not meet any boys during their vacation, so the mysterious sperm in the pool had to be the culprit.

Surely this lawsuit will be thrown out of court on inconceivable (pun intended) grounds. First off, wouldn't the chlorine kill any random sperm? But even further, did Ms. Kwiatkowska follow every moment of her vacationing daughter to prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that she spent absolutely no time with anyone of the opposite sex during their Egyptian holiday?

The only reassuring thing about this story, perhaps, is that frivolous lawsuits are not exclusively an American thing.

Does it ever cross your mind that your 13-y/o daughter is a slut, Ms. Kwiatkowska? Oh no, it must be some errant sperm floating in the pool. LOL

An entire religion is based on people being stupid enough to fall for the concept of a virgin birth. Props to the girl for selling it well enough to get her mother on board.

She should've worked the god got me pregnant angle. It's worked before.

Amazing, this thread, initially about a Polish slut, is on the verge of becoming another troll religion thread.

Stunning. :confused:

How long can sperm stay motile in pool water? How would sperm get far enough into her body to interact with an egg? How many sperm does it take to fertilize*?

*Yes it takes one sperm to make a zygote. But I think it takes more than one sperm to get the egg ready to join with a sperm.

I can't remember exactly (from my swimming pool design & maintenance course) how long sperm/germ survived in pool water but I think it is within a couple seconds.

You were already gay to begin with.

I've been in 14 countries on 6 continents and Egypt has by the dirtiest by a long shot, so anything is possible!

Not exactly sure how it branched out like that, but it was never the intent of the OP.

Is there something more expressive than /facepalm? Because I'd like to apply it here.

Maybe HPV, if the pool isn't properly chlorinated. Even then, it won't be easy.

Most pathogens that cause STDs can't survive long at all outside a host. If they could, you'd see them transmitted by other means (inhalation and otherwise) on a regular basis.

That theory is every bit as plausible as "Immaculate Conception," or nearly so...she should have tried that one first. It's at least been accepted as fact ONE time...:p
