But it’s still a good thing to cover, partially because it’s kind of mind boggling to think about (well, Sci finds it mind-boggling), […]
Sci has not had time to get heavy with the science. This is because she took the weekend off to hang in Philly. And it means I got to see the Mutter Museum of Medical Oddities!!! Apparently, in the olden days, they used to give gentlemen a drink of sherry before the viewed the exhibits, […]
Gafenberg not only describes female ejactulation, he goes into a detailed decription of the female genetalia, and what exactly happens to them during arousal and orgasm.
