I found this quite interesting, despite a few unsavoury bits. I have always wanted to have an orgasm through something other than my genitals! I also love the 'evolutionary excuse', heh. The bit about pigs is pretty...yeuch. Interesting even so. Who the hell comes up with these ideas? And 8 feet? wow.

By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

I didn't realize that being able to orgasm without genital contact was unusual. If I'm aroused I come when my back is stroked, I come when my shoulders are bit, I come if I'm talked into it. Perhaps I would be scientifically interesting?

I like Mary Roach, she's an interesting lady. And Kinsey's research has always cracked me up. I shared this elsewhere.

Mary Roach is very very awesome.

Did you know that ducks are little rapists? It's true! Male ducks routinely rape female ducks. Female duck anatomy has evolutionarily responded by giving them strangely shaped vaginas with lots of dead-ends. When being raped, the female duck can "receive" the male's penis in a "wrong" part of the vagina, where it's impossible to fertilize her eggs.

That was very interesting. Thanks.
