10 of the Most Fascinating facts about S[e]x!

1. The average female orgasm lasts 23 seconds and the average male orgasm lasts about 4 seconds.
So technically, if we really want to strive for equality, a woman should aim to administer about 5 orgasms for her male counterpart for every one that she has. Just to make it worth his time.

2. "Ithyphallophobia" is a morbid fear of seeing, thinking about or having an erect penis.
I can't say I have this fear having had experienced an erect penis numerous times since I was young. I would understand if the fear was of having an erect penis just before a teacher asks you to stand up and write something on the board. Now that's scary!


3. In earlier times, masturbation was believed to lead to blindness, madness, sudden death and other unpleasant diseases. Present research, however, shows no connection.
My only anecdotal evidence is to suggest that the fact that since there are still men left on this earth, this suggests that at the very least it is not lethal.

4. A medical study conducted in Pennsylvania showed that people who have sex once or twice a week have their immune systems boosted slightly.
So you can just tell her that you are really asking for it all the time because you care about her health and well being.

5. Marilyn Monroe, the most celebrated sex icon of the 20th century, confessed to a friend that despite her three husbands and a parade of lovers, she had never had an orgasm.
Sounds miserable actually.....why not just take up knitting. At least at the end of the day you have a sweater or a sock to show for your efforts.

6. According to the Museum of Sex, the vibrator was originally used as a medicinal treatment for female "hysteria" during the 19th century. The vibrator-induced orgasms helped doctors dissipate hysteria's anxiety-related symptoms.
This was definitely the invention of some creeper masquerading as a doctor.
"Doctor, I am experiencing extreme anxiety...."
"Well, I have just the solution, all we have to do is stick this vibrating rod down up your vag....."

7. In Hong Kong, adulterous husbands get more than a steep monthly alimony payment – a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her husband if he cheats on her – but she may only do so with her bare hands.
The punishment is harsh indeed, but if your wife is physically beast enough to actually defeat you in hand to hand combat, maybe you should refrain from doing anything that might piss her off ~ on principal.


8. Having a Ph.D. makes a woman twice as likely to be interested in a one-night stand as her Bachelor degree holding counterparts.


The "official" reason is that women with Ph.D's will tend to be able to have no strings attached sex because they aren't necessarily looking for a bread winner etc. The REAL reason is that if you spend most of your time in relative isolation, in deep study or in academic candor, every social occasion will become that much more extreme as a result of is rarity. As soon the cage is open for a few drinks, such a person will be more likely to "Release the Kracken."

9. One report states that 48% of women have faked an orgasm at least once in their life. Interestingly, an identical 48% of men also report faking an orgasm at least once.
Can't get my head around this. How does a man fake an orgasm? There is always a receipt, physical proof of a valid transaction. How can you fake that. Short of making orgasm noises and pouring in buckets of lukewarm water on her, I don't see anyone executing it with any great success. I could be wrong?

10. Some female penguins engage in prostitution.
Certain female penguins (even when in a committed relationship) will exchange sexual favors with strange males for the pebbles (money) they need to build their nests (pay for college). I watched March of the Penguins and I know the male puts in a good shift sitting on eggs in the blistering cold which makes this a super dick move by the females (no pun intended).
