Terry O'Neill: Student Loan Debt -- It's Worse for Women
Julia Levy: 30 for 30: 30 Dates for My 30th Birthday
We've told you how to have an orgasm in just about any situation. We've shared with you four things you didn't know about orgasms. We've even given you step-by-step instructions on how you can have one while going down on a guy -- seriously. But never before have we laid out the science of an orgasm. But the folks at the Medical Insurance blog did just that. (A healthy sex life equals a healthy lifestyle ... or something like that?) Pay close attention to the infographic below, folks. You never know when "How many gallons of semen does a man ejaculate in his lifetime?" is going to come up in a trivia game. And just think how impressed your teammates will be when you get that right.Click to enlarge (that's what she said):

I have to admit, I love this site, and I love the articles that are written that you post on this site. But this one, not so much, mainly for the first "fact" stated on the infographic. The man's name that did research in the 1950s was Alfred Charles Kinsey. NOT ROBERT Kinsey. A simple Google search could have cleared up this information before it was posted. As a graduate of Indiana University, and a woman who took classes from the Kinsey Institute, how credible do you think an article can be, if the first person they try to "credit" doesn't exist? (Or at least is a senator, when I googled his name).

I had a theory as to why people orgasm, when it seems logically unnecessary for pure reproductive purposes. Humans and our mammilian ancestors are all social animals, humans very much so. We have lived in tribes and cities for a very long time, since the pre-stone age at least, at probably for millions of years.
In a group of mammals, there are a variety of needs other than reproduction that are essential to survival, including but not limited to teamwork and cooperation. Having a "built in" mechanism for non-reproductive pleasant socialization between mammals of the same species probably lubricates the wheels of society in a number of subtle and important ways.
Thus human sexuality may serve more than the singular purpose of reproduction, it may also be a social bonding tool as well as having other purposes or effects that are less obvious and more complex than people think mammals and people are.

Well being a male pig at times, I can say I never had an orgasm that lasted 30 minutes, so recheck your facts, as far as dead people having orgasms, I can testify that is certainly correct. There have been a few in my lifetime I am sure they were dead during the 'making love' phase since I obviously was doing all the work!
