10cc are named due to 10cc being the approximate measurement of semen that a male ejaculates. I'm surprised you don't know that, you're an old bird.
Also, HWC is hot white *.
When I first left school I worked in our local hospital in the pathology department, where I ultimately qualified as a medical haematologist. On my way to that, I had to spend time working in all the different departments, and during my time in the Microbiology lab, one of the things we did was sperm counts. Poor little blokes used to creep into reception with their request forms, get handed a 100ml beaker with a lid, and disappear off to the loo (barbaric!), returning a few - or sometimes more - minutes later with their offering nestled in the bottom of the beaker. Colchester is a garrison town, and one day a squaddie from the Parachute Regiment (2Para I think)came in with a sperm count request form. He was given his beaker, disappeared - and a couple of hours later someone realised that he hadn't reappeared. No one worried too much, he wouldn't have been the first to have run away after all - but a further hour or so later, he staggered back to reception with his little beaker three quarters full, and said "I'm ever so sorry, I've tried my best but I'm never going to fill it".
We gave him a cup of tea and a biscuit. Honestly, it was all he was going to manage.
