Asexuality and the Future
by Anders Porter

But the marketing people have discovered (after lengthy meetings in conference rooms with huge oak tables and cigar smoke in the air) that the people would rather see a little leg than a CT Scan of a colon before and after Special K. Go figure.

Socrates, Plutarch, Plato (or Xenophon) were some of the most well-known. After courtship, each boy would choose his ‘courter,’ and spend a period of a few years in his mentor’s house. Through intellectual and physical exercises, the boy was taught to appreciate spiritual and physical beauty. In addition, they were taught how to be good lovers.


SexLife by a.a. Clifford
A Book Review
The body basically turns into a mass of seething and puss filled sores, and dead flesh. In addition, this disease has killed sexual gratification. The brain has lost its ability to feel pleasure during sex.

• Charles the 2nd, one of the 4 Romanian kings, who ruled in Romania in the 30’s, suffered from priapism. Priapism is a condition where the male suffers from a permanent erection. Obviously, this is someone any normal male would be worried about, but if you are a royal figure…well, there are more things to worry about. It seems that the Romanian secret services had the mission to select beautiful and “clean” women to be present on the roadside during the king’s visits through the city, that were later chosen to satisfy the monarch’s…disease. Charles had three wives and died in exile in Portugal. He was happily married to the last wife.

• Louis XV, King of France in the 18th century, had a great appetite for sex. Besides many mistresses, in his later days, he had a great interest in younger girls. It seems that some of his conquests were barely 10 years of age when they entered his bed. His famous mistress, Madame de Pompadour, being unable to satisfy his urges, began to choose and bring girls herself for the king’s bedroom. Having seen how he employed most of his time, there is not much doubt why France suffered quite a few defeats during his reign and lost most of its colonies…

• Napoleon Bonaparte had many mistresses during his reign. By his own confessions, he started his sexual life in Paris, with a young prostitute that had been abandoned by a French officer, but later he was quite a sought lover. One must admit that his functions could account for some of his success with the ladies, but many of them later confessed that they found him to be “charming.” Interesting adjective for one of the greatest warriors of all times…Even if he had many mistresses, it seems that his love for his first wife, Josephine, never ended, not even with the latter’s death in 1814. His second wife, Empress Marie Louise, relates that on their first night together, he came to her apartment with an excessive amount of cologne on himself and that she did everything laughing. History doesn’t tell us what she was laughing at…

• The oldest mention of a dildo in the English language can be found in the “The Choice of Valentines or the Merie Ballad of Nash his Dildo”, written by Nash in the 16th century.
