Sexual Records
Sexually speaking, there is no such thing as ‘normality’, only the limits each settles for oneself. But what happens when the sky is the limit?
The most bizarre aphrodisiac
The association of some plants with sexuality is explained through the fact that these simulate the shape of the male and female genitals.
But aphrodisiacs consist of other thing too. The most bizarre aphrodisiacs are those which presume a little cannibalism. A Chinese emperor from Ancients
times used to drink the blood of the deers he owned, to increase his virility. From this to eating human organs, the step was small. Placenta, menstrual blood,
sperm and even human genitals were consumed as aphrodisiacs. The Chinese Eunuchs were hoping to regain their strength with the help of the worms they ate
from the heads of decapitated criminals.
The most dangerous sexual technique
In matters of sex, one of the riskiest techniques is for the man to powerfully blow air in his partner’s vagina. Accidentally or intentionally,
this gesture may be lethal. The cause of the death is pulmonary embolism (the obstruction of an artery). This can cause sudden death or in around
30 minutes from the apparition of the symptoms.
The most famous lesbian
Sapho from Lesbos is undoubtedly the most known lesbian throughout history. Adored by the Greeks for her sublime poetry, the tenth nymph was born
in the 17th century B.C. Although is has been speculated that was bisexual, she used to gather around a lot of women and together they used to explore
the art of poetry and erotism.
The most famous masochist
Leopold von Sacher-Masoch was born in 1836 and he is the most famous masochist, but he wasn’t the first to discover the techniques described in his books.
Although the masochistic rituals existed many centuries before, Masoch was the one who officialized ‘the trend’, giving it its name.
The most ridiculous contraception method
Soranus was a Greek doctor who practiced medicine in Rome. He is the author of around 40 books and, after telling us how should women avoid an unwanted pregnancy,
we can only presume what other ‘inspired’ advice his books contains. In a passage from ‘Gynaecology’ Soranus recommended women that during intercourse,
when their partners ejaculate, to hold their breath while they slowly redraw their body, so that the penis doesn’t completely penetrate the vagina,
spreading the sperm towards the uterus. Then they must get up and sit with their knees bended, trying to sneeze as much as they can.
The first condom
In 1564 the book called ‘De Morbo Gallico’ was published. It belonged to Gabriello Fallopio. In its pages the Italian anatomist describes a canvas
layer which he invented so that those sexually active could protect themselves against venereal diseases. Created to mould on the penis, the ‘condom’
could also be used internally, by its insertion into the urethra.
The quickest orgasm
Approximately 6.4% of men can reach an orgasm in less than 10 seconds, generally true for those who are still teenagers. In women’s cases, there are
significant time variations: some can reach an orgasm in 8 minutes, other may experienced it in a minute or even 30 seconds.
