I have to answer this question about a million times.  So here it is.  Dr. Shettles (Shettles method) is long dead.  And he stopped studying years before that.  His theory's have been mostly proven wrong.. specifically sperm speed and how long they live.

NOPE!  On pH and the way sperm move.  But they both swim the same speed

I undestand the pH but what is "the way they move" ?
What makes the 'lil fella's go into the egg-white and the 'lil ladies stay at the bottom ?

Oh..oh!! wait, I think I know (Yes, I have my hand up!  LOL)
Is it like when you look at them under the microscope, the boys go in a straight line and the gals sorta go around in circles???  Pfff... makes us look bad eh??  Sorta how we drive too!!!  LMAO!!

I thought you recommend shettles cut-off right after O+12?  

(I have a shettles opposite to by the way )

after o+12 avoiding O is best (which is a form of cut off).  But this isn't because of shettles theory on cut off.  Its due to the 7 sway factors.

Then is it true that caffeine makes Y sperm active and they move faster than X? OR caffeine too doesn't make any change in speed.
