[–] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 40 points 4 months ago (18 children) Isn't all pollen basically tree cum? permalink fedilink source hideshow 18 child comments replies: [–] SwingingTheLamp@piefed.zip 21 points 4 months ago (4 children) No, it's genetically the offspring of the plant, and contains at least one non-reproductive cell. Pollen produces the male gametes, so the seeds created from it produce the 3rd generation of plant, genetically speaking. (1st gen is pollen producer, 2nd gen is pollen, 3rd gen is seed.) It's basically an ultra-minimal gametophyte stage. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] deltapi@lemmy.world 19 points 4 months ago (3 children) So it's tree...pre...cum?

As a result, they often emit a more meaty odor. Why cum specifically I can't say but I think cum has certain organic molecules in common with dead things. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] MJKee9@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago I almost did a joke re: dead things and sex, which was meant to be self depreciating....

Pollen is literally the tree's offspring in the form of microscopic plants. When the flowers of a tree are fertilized, the pollen literally grow into the actual reproductive parts of the plant to begin the fertilization process. permalink fedilink source parent
