My wife and I were talking about this last night. About how nearly every single women you've ever seen on the street has had a dick in her mouth.
Makes you think. ;)
Steve~
I always thought that the first condoms were made out of sheep intestine and have been used for centuries.
Huh.
Re-used?
No wonder there was so many children born to families back then!
Steve - you always make me think, but not necessarily in a good way.
Ticknart - In the rest of the world maybe, but in the US, y'all waited for a Michelin tire... 'Course, I wouldn't want to by trying to establish the accuracy of all this.
Tai - the mind boggles at the very concept.
Sex is the 'safest' tranquilizer? I think that depends on whom it happens to be with and whether one is supposed to be there. Take my 2nd wife ... no, maybe better not.
A fun posting and I'll never look at avocadoes in the same way.

Thanks for reminding me about all the sex I'm NOT having at the moment.
That over-80 statistic startled me. Now I'm going to look at the grandmas on the street in a whole different way. Maybe they're *working* the street.
That over-80 statistic is making me wonder about my grandfather. And not in a good way. I didn't need that image in my mind. Definitely not.
A man’s penis not only shrinks during cold weather but also from nonsexual excitement like when his favorite football team scores a touchdown, etc.
For the record, I am not, and have never been, a fan of football. :)
So much ado about the biological imperative of our DNA to reproduce itself into the future. Just think, everything we have or are is just because a bunch of nucleic acids want to go on forever... ;o)
Time on your hands, eh? :P
Ian - yeah, I wondered about that too.
Evil S - Poor dear.... and there's much more where that came from!
Jocelyn and Jill - I for one am thrilled. The thought of still "bumping uglies" when I'm 80 gives me some incentive to make it to there.
Dan - Neither is Mr. Jazz ;-)
BB - Yep! Here's to nucleic acid!
Choo - None at all really, otherwise I actually would have written an entry.
I'm with ticknart, i think some form of leather/skin protection was used in ancient civilisations, but good an america for coming up with the rubber solution. mmmm rubber. ;)
When I try to tell my patients these things they look at me like I'm totally nuts and lying!
I'm referring them to you for sex therapy, okay? The part about being a sexy elderly person especially throws them off.
