A Lesson About Sex: Don't Watch...Do

There are times when I just can't help myself.  First it was the urinals in Germany made to look like a woman's mouth. Then there was the Japanese guy who served up his own genitalia for dinner. I don't know why, but when that kind of story gets my attention, I feel the need to comment on it.

Well, the latest story which has caught my eye is this guy from India who gets headaches from watching porn. This 24 year old unmarried man has been getting unbearable headaches within five minutes of turning on the skin flicks. The study of his case was published in the June issue of the Archives of Sexual Behavior, and states the man had no previous history of headaches or other medical issues. The study mentions the headaches did not occur when the man was actually having sex....either alone or with a partner.

Am I missing something here? Call me crazy, but I was always under the impression that watching porn more often than not, led to having sex...either alone or with a partner. So instead of doing what, excuse the expression, comes naturally...this guy went to the doctor. This doctor was intrigued, so he brought in another doctor and voila, a case study is born. By the way, the man was treated with pain meds and lived to view another movie or two.

Do we applaud this man for having the nerve to visit his doctor with this odd symptom, or do we just snicker and ask "what the hell is wrong with him?" Me...I'm of the inclination to say he's an idiot. If you have come to the realization that you get a headache from watching porn but not having sex...just have sex, either alone or with a partner.

Some problems in life just need to be worked out on their own...either alone or with a partner.

Popcorn, anyone?
