We're getting off-topic here, but-

The cameras used are designed to track eye movement.

I'd say that *some* women react les to visual stimuli than *some* men. It's hard to generalise, just as some women, err, get their jollies in a sole-manner just as easy as men do, while some do it in a much different way.

They say that men are not good at looking women in the eyes, because women don't have eyes in the middle of their chests.

Which reminds me of dealing a young lad, who was staring at my (granted rather large) breasts "you know they don't talk back, don't you?".

well, KerrA, (hi, btw, smiley - smiley)

I didn't say 'all' either/or...

but is it not weighted on one side?

or is 'accepted theory' that it is 50/50, but that cultural reasons are behind the male-audience bias in the history of pornography?

but... y're right, it's not *exactly* on topic... smiley - winkeye

Zarquon's Singing Fish!

Coming back to the point of this entry, I would like to see some technical info on this. If there is a good link, that would help.

I know that certain religious and spiritual traditions say that when men release semen, it saps their energy, sometimes quite markedly. Might there be a place for this in this entry?

PS: Fragilis - the subjects the men and women were observing were fully clothed and either they were being watched through a one way mirror, or they were shown the subjects on film. I can't remember which.

Sport too, if you want to go down that road, particularly football and boxing - managers often insist on complete abstinence before a match.

here's a tech bit for you:

"During the night, though erection isn't controlled" I don't believe the 'though' is necessary. In fact, it doesn't make sense there at all....

The term for the female equivalent is 'clitoral engorgement'. In the same way as there is an increased blood flow to the penis during arousal, women experience an increased blood flow to the clitoris. And indeed clitoral engorgement does occur during the same phase of sleep as erections. The big difference is that most women can't climax in their sleep. (only most, mind you, some women can.)
