THIS IS YOUR BRAIN ON SEX
New York Post ^ | 6/26/05 | HEATHER GILMORE

Posted on 06/26/2005 9:08:52 AM PDT by Conservatrix

The days of faking it are over.

Scientists who studied the brains of 24 people during orgasm could readily determine exactly when the earth does not move for a faker.

Researchers also found couples can literally get "cold feet" when having sex, and that what women have said for years is true: When it comes to arousal, it's a simple matter of sensation for men, and all wrapped up in a state of mind for women.

While not wanting to brag .... I always leave them smiling, or rather sleeping. I dont know why most men act like this was such a mystery. I think its just laziness on their part.

Don't worry we can tell you're not married.

Guess my deadpan sarcasm doesn't work too well on a Sunday morning....

Speaking of Sunday mornings...

Upon hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed away, Katie went straight to her grandparent's house to visit her 95-year-old grandmother and comfort her. When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied, "He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning."

Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking for trouble.

"Oh no, my dear," replied granny. "Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even...Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong."

She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, "He'd still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn't come along."

A type of Japanese entertainment with elaborately costumed actors performing bizarre stylized traditional plays. Everyone in the audience already knows the story and the players actions on stage are supposed to always be the same.
I think a better analogy for the previous poster would have been a bird's mating dance, unless he really gets into the costumes. :) (google up kabuki and you'll see what I mean)

and perhaps..... love???

From the article:

"What this means is that deactivation, letting go of all fear and anxiety, might be the most important thing - even necessary - to have an orgasm."

Being in love, in a committed relationship, is definately a plus for this.

What a huge shock!

Shame on you. I was referring to the size of the poll, not the pole!

I think it's dull wittedness.

It would seem obvious that:

1) Each partner's enjoyment of the act gratifys the other and directly leads to a more intense and satisfying experience.
2) If the object were a race to ejaculation why wouldn't the dullard stick to masterbation?

"Add: creativity, interest, sensitivity, sense of humor, gentleness, sensuality, and perhaps..... love???"

Love first - the rest follows naturally.

Picture a Japanese Tea Ceremony, and turn it sideways.

Far out......that being said I think I should stay off these type threads, my "handle" is an open invitation for abuse apparently........;)

Maybe I should spank him with the Constitution instead?

Absolutely. Do it until you hear his "Declaration".

Tounge in cheek...;^)

The Disciple asked: What is a misogynist?

The Master replied: I do not know; but it is used by cowards as a term of abuse for those who say what everybody thinks.

[When it comes to arousal, it's a simple matter of sensation for men, and all wrapped up in a state of mind for women.]

What a huge shock!

It's also a huge oversimplification and overgeneralization.

If a woman is receptive and a man is patient and knows what to do, why should there be any faking outside of porn flicks?

Oh, good gosh, let's don't open that can of worms. You'll have all of them coming on here and claiming they've NEVER faked it.
