I was skeptical about these claims of an exotic compound in my semen. I suspected it was part of a disinformation campaign, or maybe just Betsy&#8217;s excuse to charge <em>expensive adulterous affairs<\/em> to her Academy spending account.\u00a0But it seemed wisest for now to behave as though they were true.
