Women have multiple orgasms, men get to pee standing up.

We got the better deal. :)

Women are smart enough to know where babies come from, and the human race has the most difficult childbirth, and prolonged child raising time period of any species.

If it weren't fun ... who'd do it?

Lets just say, it can help them little critters do their job..

It can also impede them. Like many things, it all depends on the timing.

Rather, Dr. Lloyd says the most convincing theory is one put forward in 1979 by Dr. Donald Symons, an anthropologist.

Good thing the Times is there to keep us up-to-date on breaking news.

Going by this "logic", men's nipples should be every bit as sensitive as a woman's.....which we know isn't the case.

How do we know they aren't? Who the heck has ever felt both? from the perspective of the feel-ee, that is.

The female orgasm... has no evolutionary function at all

And I bet that very few women care, either.


But I do wonder how long it will take for the mods close this thread...

I think I saw the same show... orgasm before sex in wimmen actually hinders pregnancy. Not that there's anything wrong with that ;~D

I don't understand what you're saying.  The doctor is stating that there's no evolutionary need for female orgasms....that the female orgasm is just for fun....subsequently it's logical to assume, based on the doctor's conclusion, that the male nipples would develop equally to a females, "just for fun"....since the female reproductive organ develops equally to a males in terms of orgasm.

The doctor is saying about the female sex organs the same thing you're saying about male nipples.....only we know the female orgasm isn't under-developed or vestigial, so it's entirely logical to assume the doctor doesn't have the slightest idea at all of what she's talking about.

How can you tell she's having more fun? Is she laughing?

Dude, I think you may be doing something wrong.

Nope not remotely.. they are having a dozen or more O's to my one... they are having way more fun... but they do always come back again.. which is fine by me.

We know feeling in the nipples is not the same in men and women.  It's really, really, really old news.  Men cannot have orgasms simply from nipple stimulation.

Men's nipples are VERY sensitive.

You just have to know what to do is all...

The "just for fun" aspect of female nipples is learned, you know. There's no evolutionary need for them to be pleasurable. I would argue that if mens nipples were emotionally thought of as sensual, they would be sensual.

It's all up here >>>points to brain<<<
