SEX TRIVIA

Trivia

2. According to London sex shop Sh! 61% of women find just the idea of buying a sex toy arousing in itself. Could it be the combined power of sex AND shopping? 66% of women would prefer to buy sex toys/erotica from a real shop rather than online revealing that for women, buying a vibe is like buying a handbag; they want to feel the quality! 

3. Sex goddess Marilyn Monroe had problems reaching orgasm. After much therapy she called ‘Bingo!’ telling her doctor: “Bless you doctor. Think of a light switch with a rheostat control (dimmer). As you begin to turn it on, the bulb begins to get bright, then brighter, and brighter and finally in a blinding flash is fully lit. It is so good... Doctor, I worship you."

4. Merkins’ aka pubic wigs are used in the movies to conceal actor’s modesty.

It Is Good To Be Above Average

6. Nearly half of men think their willy is too small. But most women are very satisfied with their man’s love muscle. And they say we moan about our bums?



7. Absence may make the heart grow fonder, but it makes your man’s sperm count decrease.

So Put Out As Much As Possible

The "little fellar" looks like a penis with a tail!

9. Average number of calories in that teaspoon? Seven.

10. Average speed of ejaculation: 28 miles per hour.

11. Worried about all those calories? Never fear - you burn about 200 calories during 30 minutes of active sex.

12. Sperm contains proteins that have the same anti-wrinkle effect as your moisturizer, which tighten skin and give an instant face-lift. Not entirely sure we’re willing to swap our coveted creams for sperm just yet though. 

13. Men like a big bum – its official! Why? Because it indicates fertility..

14. Men, hear this! If you eat celery it will make you more attractive to women. “When you chew a stalk of celery, you release androstenone and androstenol odour molecules into your mouth. They then travel up the back of your throat to your nose," says Alan Hirsch, M.D., author of Scentsational Sex. "Once there, the pheromones boost your arousal, turning you on and causing your body to send off scents and signals that make you more desirable to women."

Just picked up a whole bunch!

15. Singapore born Grace Quek aka ‘Annabel Chung’ was formerly a porn star who became a record breaker on January 19, 1995 at the tender age of 22 for ‘engaging’ in 251 sex acts with about 70 men over a ten-hour period. The event was filmed for a documentary The World’s Biggest Gang Bang for which Chung had advertised on TV for men to participate. Her motivation? To challenge gender roles and the notion of women as passive sex; "We're not wilting violets, we're not victims, for Christ's sake. Female sexuality is as aggressive as male sexuality. I wanted to take on the role of the stud. The more [partners], the better.”

I love this woman!

16. Unlike chocolate at Easter which leaves you craving a simple carrot, the more sex you have the more you want.

17. The French ability to romanticise is never more obvious than with their dubbing of those post-coital moments of peace as ‘La Petit Mort’ aka ‘the little death’. After such mental and psychical exertion the soul transcends to another plain (...or your fella falls fast asleep).

18. Sex toys and vibrators are banned in shops in US states Alabama and Mississippi. The attorney general stated; “there is no fundamental right for a person to buy a device to produce orgasm". Shop keeper Sherri Williams from Alabama said in response: “My motto has been they are going to have to pry this vibrator from my cold, dead hand. I refuse to give (it?) up.”

19. A quarter of penises are slightly bent when erect.

20. No wonder we like to swim with dolphins. We have something special in common – humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.

21. Say cheese! Semen contains zinc and calcium, both of which are proven to prevent tooth decay.

22. Hop to it. The iconic "Rabbit" is renowned for two things: excellent orgasm results and an odd smiley face on its tip. Women's Health tells us the smiley face was actually a result of conservative Japanese customs. Apparently, Japanese consumers frown upon "the production of sex toys that too closely resemble phalluses," so the smiley face was added.

  

23. Justice is served. 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.

Sex Myths

Curiosities on sexual concepts abound freely. Sex myths like Viagra surpass common sense. Thus, a taboo free sexuality remains heaven on earth despite efforts. 

Human sexuality is an inexorable source of fears and hunkers. When sexually minded people express their sexual leanings those against free sexuality turn eager for sex myth mongering. Scientific marvels like Viagra aid unleash every sexual motive concealed in sex myths.

To hold sex myths accountable only adds more hearsay on sexuality taboo forging. Achieving sexuality harmony springs from smooth rough edges on sexual relation.

Most taboos permeate from religious inculcation although physical flaws can amplify prejudice.
Here are some of most popular old wives’ tales:

1. A sexual intercourse only occurs with vaginal penetration: A sex act is by far more ample than this misconceived idea. There can be performed in many ways, i.e., oral sex, anal sex, and clitoral stimulation. What counts is the means for obtaining sexual pleasure. The penis penetration in the vagina is only one out of the bag.
2. Women are less sexually orientated than men: not true, women dig sex as much as men.
3. Sterilization affects men and women sexually decreasing sex drive: Anything as such only prevents pregnancy not altering sexual desire.
4. Penis size counts: Widely discussed by popular demand, sexual pleasure however comes down to sexual performance. Size and girth doesn’t matter.
5. A man shouldn’t express feelings: A man has feelings hence being entitled to express them. Expressing feelings ensure sexuality heightening.
6. Sex is good only when reaching orgasm simultaneously: No chance. Sex means non-stop apprentice and respect by the other’s limits. Obviously, when a couple manages to reach orgasm in unison longed sensations ought to be enthralling, but this shouldn’t be a general rule, since tension built up from attempts of reaching simultaneous climax may spoil the sex act itself, hampering efforts.
7. A man should never turn down sex: A man is entitled to refuse sex offers, owing to piling up odds. A down beat man pass of haphazardness of daily tribulations on his sexual performance. NEVER!
8. Sexual fantasy indulgence is unthinkable of: All the way round, sexual fantasies are repressed hankers, which can and should come out at sex time. It spices up sexuality.Come to terms with your sex fantasies. Always keep your sex partner’s in good terms as well.
9. Unprotected anal sex can leave you pregnant: By all means always safer sex. Spermatozoids are as fast as stealth, in other words, no matter how unlikely it might seem spermatozoids might ooze in the vagina.
10. A woman always bleed in her first sexual relation: Another fallacy as female morphology varies. The hymen tends to rupture with penetrative sex but changes can be expected due to its thickness and elasticity.
11. Overdoing masturbation render men impotent: Pure non-sense, the bigger the better.
12. Masturbation induces hair growth in hands: Not at all, let alone blindness, acne and a lie of codswallop.
13. Bigotry has a lot to do with sexual castration. As well sexuality taboos thrive on guilt impingement of religious kicks. Sexual intimacy embraces all sex daring boundaries for so trial.

15 Awkward, Yet Hilarious, Sex Facts

Chinese authorities had to clamp down on people hiring Strippers to perform at Funerals!

It's not some ancient Chinese tradition, but it does have something to do with Chinese culture. In a culture that values honor as much as the Chinese culture does, the more people attend someone's funeral, the more the dead person is honored. 

In order to draw larger crowds to funerals, a few people started organizing funerals that involved a striptease performance! The authorities considered this to be "obscene performances" and arrested 5 people in a rural area for organizing the nudie funerals. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The world's largest breast implants are size 38KKK.

Sheyla Hershey is a 28-year-old Brazilian model who lives in Houston. Sheyla has had over 18 separate plastic surgeries, but her major claim to fame took place last year when she upgraded her cup size to KKK! (a rather unfortunate size name). 

Before the procedure, Hershey's breasts were only 34FFF (that's a full gallon of silicone!) last May, so she decided to go under the knife once more because, well...that's what she does. Unfortunately for her, Texas law limits the amount of silicone a person can put in their body (too much of it CAN kill you), so what did Sheyla do? Why, she returned home to Brazil to have the surgery done there, of course! 

As it turns out, the Texas law was enacted for a reason. After ballooning her bosom, Sheyla suffered severe staph and strep infections for months. This led to the removal of all FOUR of her implants, and nearly led to a mastectomy! 

Sheyla is not phased, however - she plans to allow her body to heal for about three months, and then she expects to risk her life once more by having the KKK implants replaced. Her reasoning? "You have to stay two years to keep a world record. I only stayed three months because of my infection."

There is a dress that becomes transparent when the person wearing it becomes aroused.

Are you the kind of person who finds it’s hard to express yourself? Well the new Intimacy 2.0 may help in making your feelings more transparent. This fashion/technological breakthrough measures the heart-rate of the wears and adjusts its transparency accordingly. 

In a bar-like situation, a conversation with a charming partner that causes the wear’s heart to race may cause the dress to show more skin whereas one with someone who is dull and boring may keep everything behind curtains. 

Its designer, Daan Roosegaarde constructed it out of leather and smart e-foils that are opaque. This dress is another unconventional addition to fashion, alongside dresses made from chocolate and paper. 

The Intimacy 2.0 has already won a string of awards and created explosive media buzz. This dress does explore the merger between fashion and technology like the new Google glasses exploit, but on the less obvious side, it also shows how fashion is essentially a social tool, and how styles adjust themselves to the social climate. 

While it covers up our bodies, clothing is meant to give others a glimpse into what lies underneath, which in turn facilitates social interaction. In our age of efficiency and sexual/romantic freedom, this dress may lead to more straightforward and quicker beginnings to relationships. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The University of Pennsylvania’s motto used to be “Loose women without morals!”

From 1756 to 1898 the University’s motto read Sine Moribus Vanae. The motto comes from Horace’s III.24 that says “of what avail empty laws without good morals?” But it could be translated as “Loose women without morals!”

When the University realized the mistake, they immediately changed it to “literae sine moribus vanae” which reads “letters without morals are useless.” Then in 1932 the entire seal was revised and they redesigned the motto again to say “leges sine moribus vanae” which reads “laws without morals are useless.” They changed it because they said that the first changed mottomutilated Horace.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

David Lee Roth insured his own sperm for a million dollars.

“But wait”, you must be thinking, “you can regrow sperm, so what’s the point?” Well, unlike other stories of bizarre celebrity body part insurance*, Roth’s insurance policy isn’t designed to protect him from sickness or catastrophic injury. With this policy, Roth will receive $1,000,000 in the event of an unwanted pregnancy. This way, if he makes a baby on accident, he has a million dollars that he can rely on to cover child support.

This may seem ridiculous, but remember that at the time (the 80s) David Lee Roth was in the hottest band in the world, and he looked like this, not like this . Losing all of his Van Halen earnings to a groupie was actually a legitimate fear back then. Still, you have to wonder, what’s wrong with just using condoms? The money he spent on the insurance policy could have been invested in a David Lee Roth IRA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The scientific name for ‘morning wood’ is “nocturnal penile tumescence”.

Morning wood is actually just the leftovers from what happens at night. Nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT) is a natural part of the male sleep cycle, occurring most frequently during the REM cycle in which we dream. The average night of sleep for a male between 13 and 79 years old involves 90 minutes of erection, or about 20% of overall sleep time. Females also experience a related vaginal lubrication during their dreaming states, but neither phenomenon is related to sexual activity during the day. The fact that this happens can also be a contentious legal issue. You can read more about that in this article.

NPT is actually helpful when trying to determine the cause of erectile dysfunction. When a man’s erectile dysfunction is psychological in origin, NPT still occurs. Doctors can use electronic monitoring on a sleeping patient to see if they have nighttime erections

A Taiwanese woman married herself. 

On November 16 of this year, a bride was left standing at the altar...and could not have been more happy about that fact! 30-year-old office worker Chen Wei-yih sees this act as a commitment to love herself before she can begin to love others. The ceremony was a full wedding with all the usual components - save a groom. Chen has been in several relationships and does not consider this marriage to be binding, meaning that she will still be free to marry whomever she chooses once she feels the time is right.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wedgies can cause testicular damage.

There is at least one reported case of testicular damage resulting from the popular schoolyard prank. Jack Watson, boy in Lincolnshire, England, nearly lost a testicle in 2004 when one of his friends at school gave him a wedgie. He was rushed to the hospital where doctors spent an hour reattaching his testicle to his scrotum. Afterward, he said that the wedgie still hurt.

Want to lower your sex drive? Keep licorice handy

Licorice has been used a lot for medicinal effect. Herbalists use it to treat the adrenal glands, and Chinese medicine uses it in a variety of treatments. However, it also has another use. 

Research has found that when people eat around 25g of licorice, it can affect sex drive. Licorice contains Glycerrhizinic Acid. This acid inhibits the liver's ability to deactivate cortisol incirculation. The result of this is that the cortisol levels rise, and that reduces the action of testosterone. This in turn, reduces sex drive.

An 83 year old man was arrested for prostitution

Ben Clifford Dawson was running for city council in Iowa when he offered to lower a woman’s loan debt in exchange for him performing sex acts on her!

Even though the woman said no, Dawson clutched and kissed her on the neck anyway! After spending 10 days in jail, Dawson was released after posting $2000 in bail money. It’s unclear how this will effect his standings in the election but the odds are slim.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A writer was fired from Disney for jokingly suggesting that a 'porn Disney flick' be made.

A few hours into his his FIRST day of work, Harlan Ellison and a few of his fellow writers headed off to lunch. While they were eating, Ellison started kidding around. He playfully suggested that they should make a Disney porno and began acting out the film in the voices of classic Disney characters. Despite the unprofessional nature of such a conversation, there was nothing inherently wrong with this...except for one thing - Walt's Disney's older brother was within earshot! 

Roy Disney and several other heads were sitting at a nearby table and could hear Ellison's conversation. Ellison claims that when he returned to his office that afternoon, he found a pink slip on his desk and the name on his parking space had already been whited out! 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In 2008, 18,000 breast reduction surgeries were performed...on American men.

The number of male breast reduction procedures in England increased from 323 in 2008 to 581 the following year. That's an 80% increase! That makes it the fastest growing cosmetic surgery in the UK. It's even more popular in the US. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast reduction is the fourth most popular cosmetic surgery for men, behind nosejobs, eyelid surgery, and liposuction! Some surgeons say that new types of men's magazines are responsible for the increased prevalence of such cosmetic operations. Combine this with the prevalence of obesity (a common cause of "gynecomastia", or excess breast tissue) and you find that more and more men are unhappy with the size of their breasts.

Gynecomastia can also be a side effect of certain prescription medications, or can even show up as a result of using drugs like heroin, methadone, and marijuana.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Depending on the variety, a condom can hold up to 7 gallons of liquid!

Depending on the size and type of condom being used (lubricated, unlubricated, thin, regular, standard size, magnum, etc.) a condom can carry between 2 ½ gallons to 7 gallons of liquid.

To put this into perspective, the average ejaculation produces about half an ounce of fluid. At 128 ounces in a gallon, the largest condoms can hold 1,792 times the amount of fluid that it actually needs to.

This was all discovered as part of an experiment that you could do at home. Check out how it was done here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In William Shakespeare’s time, the word “nothing” was slang for vagina.The reason for this strange nickname is because this part of the female sexual organ is round like a zero (0). Other fun Elizabethan terms included: “thing” for penis, “merry” when someone was sexually aroused, and “country matters,” which referred to matters pertaining to a women’s genitals. Something that the unacquainted may miss about Shakespeare is that his plays were often full of dirty jokes, using now-outdated slang, or simply jump making up his own words. The folks at Cracked have even suggested that he would make a great Cracked writer if he were alive today.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A woman once had sex with 919 men in a single day.

Amazingly, she accomplished the feat in only TWELVE hours! That averages out to one man every 45 seconds, nonstop! This disgusting feat was achieved on October 16, 2004 by American adult film star Lisa Sparxxx as part of the Third Annual World Gangbang Championship. The event was part of Eroticon, a porn convention in Warsaw, Poland. 

The competition was between Ms. Sparxx and two other women. One of them was the previous record-holder, who had sex with "only" 759 men in a day. 

In addition to referees, six cameras were used to carefully record the event! Sparxxx ended up beating her nearest competitor by 21 men.

8 Weird US Sex Laws

Sex is an intimate act between two people ... except for when government is also involved. Some of the strangest laws of the land relating to the horizontal tango:

1. In New Hampshire, it's illegal to cheat on your spouse—adultery being defined there, since the early 1800s, as "intercourse from which spurious issue [a child born out of wedlock] may arise." But lawmakers last month voted to scrap the law, which could vanish from the books Jan. 1.

2. In Utah, it can be illegal to act too "sexy." A law aimed at curbing solicitation was broadened in 2011, so “lewd acts” that simply imply you want to trade sex for money, like exposing or touching yourself, are banned. Three escort services tried to fight it, but it was upheld in September.

3. In Hawaii, it just recently became illegal for police officers to have sex with prostitutes.

4. In Florida, it's illegal for unmarried couples to live together in sin. Adultery is also illegal there, and one woman actually got her husband arrested for cheating in 2006. But lawmakers moved to get rid of the laws earlier this year.

5. Another state where adultery is illegal: New York, where a woman was arrested in 2010 after having sex on a picnic table in a park. The arresting officer happened to know she was married, so she ended up getting charged with adultery in addition to public lewdness.

6. In Nebraska, you can't get married if you have gonorrhea, according to this handy roundup of state-by-state sex laws.

7, Gawker reports there are four states (Louisiana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Kansas) that have banned sodomy "in some way"—but technically allow necrophilia (sex with corpses).

8. Ladies, if you lose a game of pool in Anniston, Alabama, you may not legally settle your tab with sex, Marie Claire reports.
