It can transmit STIs, but that depends on the health of the producer. But that covers more "is it sterile" than "is it hygienic". It has a bunch of things that are great for sperm that are also great for many microorganisms if it's left around. So: clean in up and dispose of it.

I'll keep this in mind the next time I'm at work.
Depends, do you consider yo momma clean or dirty?
Semen is like body waste products: it is safe to consume your own but you should not consume otherβs on a daily basis.
Exactly what other waste products do you think are safe to consume? In my understanding they range from "never" to "Dear God why would you ever think to do that?"
