Kinsey conducted, for lack of a better term, jerk-off in which he lined men up next to each other and had them ejaculate in order to study how far semen can shoot.
Wow, that sounds like a study that a lot of high school boys, hell grown men would love to participate in. Do researchers provide porn and dirty mags? Sounds like a win win.
@token_y_chromosome: Oh, I think most men are far more competitive than homophobic - I'd even wager that the root emotion that initiates homophobia in humans is competition.
I'm reading "Bonk" right now and it is seriously the best pre-bedtime reading I've encountered in quite a while. Roach handles (HA) the subject with excellent research and a rockin' sense of humor. I can't wait to pass it along to my boyfriend when I'm done!
@wooden_shoes: Hee! I just finished it and while I was reading it I took it to a party and ended up cracking it out. I had a glass of wine in one hand and _Bonk_ in the other. Good party! I'm reading _Spook_ now.... She is awesome.
@Cerridwen: because for those that are able to it will increase the chances of pregnancy.I recommend watching number 9, it is fascinating, the cervix dips down and appears to suck the semen right up.
@Stagtasticfantastic: Anthropologically speaking, the female orgasm developed in accordance with picking mates who had traits like patience and compassion which would make them better providers and fathers (that's one theory, at least). So it fits that when a guy who makes you cum your body is like "Hello! Keeper!" and tries to make the most of it.
@Vivelafat says Sweep the leg, Johnny.: I've always wondered if any of my ex's ever heard me when I orgasmed in my dreams. Was I loud? Was it our little secret (me and my vagina)?
@elephantshoes: i went to catholic school for thirteen years and I was taught that masturbation was fine. what was problematic is masturbation to the exclusion of physical intimacy with other people; i.e the idea that people seek self-love and don't try and form union with another person.
@DevilsLawyer: The idea was still within the context of marriage, but someone alluded to this in a thread awhile back, how when they looked at the sexual habits of religious Christians, Catholics, yes were more inclined to wait until marriage but once they got married they were fine with sex.
All of the women that I know that have messed up relationships with their sexuality are not Catholic. they're Buddhist, or were raised agnostic and stuff and the religion wasn't at fault so much as the culture/ their parents who basically told them that sex was dirty and that it was what a women did to please a man but that it wasn't for them to enjoy. I was never taught nor do I believe that sex is dirty. If anything, I was taught the opposite. That sex is sacred and intimate and beautiful, and just like you don't stuff yourself with a crappy meal from McDonalds before going to a five star dinner you don't fill yourself with shitty sex because why would you settle for a crap substitute?
I haven't had many partners and my friends generally treat me like the little innocent naive (I'm 29) but the reality is that based on their stories I've had the best consistent sex out of any of them. And I'm not saying this in an my orgasm is better than yours way (though many of them still haven't orgasmed from sex and they're in their mid-to late twenties as well and I have so nyah), but in the sense that I've never had a guy do some of the horrible asshat things that they've had happen to them (guys pulling off condoms midway through because it feels better even though the girls weren't on BC, nevermind STDs). I've never had "bad sex" there are no notches on my bedpost that I wish weren't there. I keep joking that I've been ruined, because now that I've only had filet mignon I can't possibly settle for ground round.
@LibidinousSlut: 'That sex is sacred and intimate and beautiful, and just like you don't stuff yourself with a crappy meal from McDonalds before going to a five star dinner you don't fill yourself with shitty sex because why would you settle for a crap substitute?'
That sort of sounds like my friend's teen youth group. They passed around a cup and each had to spit in it. Then the guide asked who wanted to have a sip. That was, apparently, a metaphor for having sex (and though the cup had no gender, the 'cum dumpster' allusion was assumed by most of the teens).
@chritter: But isn't that kind of like the "If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around, does it make a noise?" conundrum. I mean, if you're dead, you are not conscious and so it's not so much an orgasm as post-humous muscle contractions, right? There would be no brain activity, so no pleasure receptors would be switched on. Or maybe I am just confusing myself...
@Cerridwen: No, that's exactly what I was thinking. More just a reflexive spasm, no? But then, I guess that's what it really is in the first place? I dunno, I'm confusing myself too.
@chritter: Ha ha...bien joue Monsieur! I imagine the muscles can spasm post mortem but I wouldn't call that an orgasm. It's not a reaction to stimulus.
@chritter: It's not at all uncommon for men to ejaculate as they die; perhaps it's the same for women, perhaps not. But I've read about the days when there were public hangings, and it was a common source of ridicule to point out that the guy had come while he was in his death throes or immediately post-mortem.
9.) There was an instrument developed in lab studies - a camera attached to a phallus - to study what happens inside a woman's vagina when she climaxes.
But the point is, was that fetus having impure thoughts? Was she feeding the flames of an unquenchable desire? What will her future husband think? ( I was told all this in Christian School when discussing masturbation.)
@CGirl: A surge of hormone release: it triggers various things that (like pheromones) let someone know you're around. I'm not sure if this sort of "bad" breath was always construed as negative.. but that's the idea.
@Keitha: I made the terrible mistake of telling my husband that our sex got rid of my headache. I shot the "I can't right now, I have a headache" excuse out of the water forever.
@iamwombat: I'm rather disturbed that she went from writing Stiff to this. Yes, she probably needed a mental palate cleanser, but the dead people-to-sex jump was a little too direct.

Agreed! I always wake up in the middle of climax like "Huh, wha---oh yeah! YEAH!"
Best one so far? Viggo Mortensen doing me in a library. God, that was the best dream ever.
