Does rubber affect sperm quality?

I was wonder if anyone knows if rubber has any adverse affects on sperm? I know that sperm are very sensitive and many lubes kill sperm, so I was wonder if rubber does also.

However, I do believe that if the sperm is lying in such a place as to be adversely affected by a rubber tire, then I believe the rubber is the least of your problems.
