The Evolution of Sexual Pleasure

Sorry this took so long - I purposely tried not to get into too much physiological detail with this - I might do a vid later that focuses more on that. This is by no means comprehensive (there's only so much you can do in 15 min), but I hope it encourages some to take a closer look at the subject themselves, or perhaps open the eyes of others who think sex should only be about having babies.

The threatening sounds clip is from TheraminTrees' "Mr. Jingles", which I love and I was desperate for an excuse to give it cameo :-)

Women masturbate too you know! I'm gonna keep saying this cause people dont seem to know!!!

[Tioliah]

@LeftWingPOG Um... I never said they didn't... Was there something in the video that gave you this impression? I'm happy to clarify if that's the case. 

[LeftWingPOG]

@Tioliah My fellow liberal PC sister, you keep beating around the bush, as do so many other people with these videos..and THATs the issue! We all need to be more vocal, come out and say it!!

[Tioliah]

@LeftWingPOG Neither masturbation nor female sexuality were the focus of the video - I was discussing sexual pleasure as it pertains to mammals, placing humans in that wider context. Given the broader perspective I was shooting for, this was not the time to explore gender specifics (later projects/vids). As such, I kept my examples and terminology as inclusive as possible, and tried not to be biased towards a specific gender (sorry if you thought I was).

Very good vis thanks

and on a sidenote: once again, "moral" conservatives get their repressed arses handed to them :P

[AtheistRex]

Very interdisciplinary presentation. Thank you. Imagine if we had the all the minds needed to occupy every post in every scientific endeavor. We'd be unstoppable.

@Tioliah Okay, Please do a video about female sexuality, dispelling the myth about women and masturbation. Also, I'm looking for new ways to do it, new ideas. I've been thinking of getting into porno to get back at my ex boyfriend.
