Correct answer

17

Explanation

The verb 'to ejaculate' comes from Latin and literally means 'to throw up'. Every time a man ejaculates he produces 1-2 tea spoons of semen. If he is potent for 70 years and comes twice a week, this means a total of 70 x 52 x 2 = 7,280 portion, the equivalent of around 50 litres of seamen, or a half-full bath tub. Energy-wise, it is the equivalent of 50,000 calories or 17 marathons.
