From the review of the book, Put what where? 2,000 years of bizarre sex advice:

  • “Constricting the waist by corsets prevents the return of blood to the heart, overloads sexual organs and causes unnatural excitement of the sexual system. The majority of women follow the goddess Fashion and so also wear their hair in a heavy knot. This great pressure on their small brains produces great heat and chronic inflammation of their sexual organs. It is almost impossible that such women should lead other than a life of sexual excess.” Dr John Cowan, The Science of a New Life (1888)

  • “The majority of women (happily for them) are not very much troubled with sexual feelings of any kind.” Dr William Acton, Functions and Disorders of the Reproductive Organs (1858)

  • “Look at the habitual masturbator! See how thin, pale and haggard he appears; how his eyes are sunken; how long and cadaverous is his cast of countenance; how irritable he is and how sluggish, mentally and physically; how afraid he is to meet the eye of his fellow, feel his damp and chilling hand, so characteristic of great vital exhaustion.” Dr Henry Guernsey, Plain Talks on Avoided Subjects (1882)

  • Never marry these women
    “Redheads. Any girl named after a mountain, a tree, a river or a bird. Ones with rough hands or feet. Ones who sigh, laugh or cry at meals. Any girl with inverted nipples, a beard, uneven breasts, flap ears, spindle legs or who is scrawny. Girls whose big toes are disproportionately small. Girls who make the ground shake when they walk past.” Koka Shastra, The Indian Scripture of Koka (12th century). Well, I think I should have no problem, then.

  • “The clitoris, while important, is not nearly as important as many of us have been taught or led to believe.” Edward Podolsky, Sex Technique for Husband and Wife (1947)

    "McDonald's Corp. announced Tuesday that it will display nutrition information on the packaging for most of its menu items next year."

    I really want a Big Mac now. And some fries. Before that nutritional info comes out. [Oh, I know it's got 957 calories and 689 grams of fat and is made up of poisoned meat and saw dust; just let me have my illusion for a moment.]

    Of course, we have the good ol' Culver's ("home of the butter burger") and a place called "Rumble Seats" which served me up the greasiest most yummy burger I've had in years not that long ago. So who needs that yucky fat/salt-taste on their tongue? 'Cept thinking about it makes me want it.

    I think my body's going into winter mode, craving all this fat.
