April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberPoor eggs
Sorrowless
MemberWhat would happen if an egg received that many sperms?
Naysayer1230
MemberIf they were that big? Either they would destroy the cell or ignore it. If they were regular sized, that is actually pretty realistic as to the amount of cells, a couple of sperm cells would work to enter the membrane, and once the sperm connected with the egg, it would release a hormone that causes the other sperm cells to ignore the egg and die.
Sorrowless
MemberAlright, but what if that many entered anyway?
ChaosContrl
MemberIf the egg can accept multiple spermatozoids, then there would be too many chromosomes, making it impossible to conceive. And if it manages to conceive anyways, then a new life form would be born.
Sorrowless
MemberI thought having more sperms reaching the egg would mean that twins, triplets etc would be conceived.
TheSteelwolf
MemberNot even close. More sperm in one egg does nothing. Twins happen when a fertilized egg divides in such a way that it forms two fetuses. More sperm does nothing.

Memberthe more you know

Memberno, identical twins happen from a normally fertilized egg that splits into seperate cells really early on, the separated cells begin to grow separately. Fraternal twins come from when two eggs get fertilized seperately.

MemberLike most good porn hosting sites e621 falls into the category of "Come for the porn, stay for the comments.... and more porn, that too."
