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 believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs" -Thomas Jefferson

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.

it does give y sperm a small boot of energy.  this doesnt make the faster than x sperm but does help with swaying
