Achieving sexual
climax requires a complex conspiracy of sensory and psychological signals—and the eventual silencing of critical brain areas -pi |

Interesting that the part of the brain suppressing primary drives and urges gets shut off (so women become "uninhibited" when they orgasm), fear and anxiety. Maybe I can volunteer to have my anxiety treated by continuous orgasm?

Feels much better than holding one's breath though :-) I remember that scene in Sleeper.
I wonder if "an orgasm a day will keep the anxiety away" :-) Do they say how long the "effects" last? __________________ "Never give a sword to a man who can't dance." ~Confucius |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
