News: Scientists Claim Yawning Is A Sign Of Sexual Attraction

According to Wolter Seuntjens, a Dutch academic who is a pioneer in chasmology (the science of yawn studies), yawning is a sign of sexual attraction. 

It is still officially unknown why we yawn and beliefs that we do it because we are tired is a fallacy, because many people yawn when they have woken from a good nights sleep and at various times during the day. Scientists believe there are different types of yawn.

The concept of the erotic yawn was created after Seuntjens noted that many sexologists were consulted by people who yawned during sex or foreplay.

News: Scientists prove 'Gaydar' Really Exists!

I've been telling people this for fucking ages, but nOoOoOo! Now I have scientific backing! 

Let me attempt to explain: A gay man only has to see another gay man and he knows. We give off a signal that slips under the radars of most heterosexuals, but a gay man's gaydar starts beeping. We can't be fooled. I don't care if the man in question has had sex with a hundred women and has two hundred kids. The gaydar can't be beaten. It was invented by mother nature herself. WE KNOW.

There is no fucking closet in gaydom. The gay translation of 'coming out of the closet' is: he decided to let heterosexuals in on the secret that every homosexual already knew. 

Do you think when we call your favourite popstar "gay", we're being horrible? We're just softening you up for the blow. Yes, they claim not to be gay. Some even go so far as to get girlfriends, even wives. But when the source of your fame and wealth is screaming female fans, you pretty much have to give the customer what they want, which is a singing/dancing fuck fantasy.

*Inhales...and... exhales* I'm calm. Beep... beep... beep! Gaydar is going off. I knew I shouldn't have put MTV on. HE is always on there.

Back to the news story: Researcher Dr Lorenza Colzato, of Leiden University in the Netherlands, conducted research into whether straight and gay people focus their attention differently. He concluded that the gaydar exists, ensuring that gay people pay more attention to detail, allowing them to pluck potential partners out of a crowd.

News: Taiwanese Surgeons Electrocute Their Penises on Purpose

A group of surgeons at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering in Taiwan, led by Dr. Vincent Tsai, have been exploring the effects of electricity on penises by themsleves becoming the subjects of their own experiments.

Their report, titled "Determination of Human Penile Electrical Resistance and Implication on Safety for Electrosurgery of Penis" gives an insight into the field of surgery known as 'electrosurgery', a safe and hygienic way of cutting tissue using highly concentrated electric currents, which was pioneered by Dr William T Bovie in 1914.

Sex Fact #128

A new study says that boys at single-sex schools are more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that help develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to conform to the "boy code" of hiding their emotions to be a "real man".

The report, presented at a conference of the International Boys' Schools Coalition in London attended by the heads of private and state schools, goes against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.

Sex Fact #117

Studies found evidence to suggest that there is seasonality in a number of areas of sexual health among young people, including: the timing of first intercourse and conceptions, both of which peak in the summer and over Christmas; abortions which peak approximately two months later in February and late summer and sexually transmitted infections, which peak over the summer and autumn. In the case of conceptions there is evidence that the seasonal pattern among young people is different from that of adults. Potential explanations fall into four main categories: biological; behavioural; social, and service-related.
