Weird Sex (Practices, Preferences & Accoutrements!)

Defining weird and normal?

Internet sex study reveals what people really REALLY want
By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 5:09 PM on 27th April 2011

Scientists have finally got a grip on our deepest sexual desires - by looking at what people type into Google.
They have examined one billion online sex-related searches from around the world to find out what users click on when no one else is looking.

The findings have been published in a book called A Billion Wicked Thoughts, co-authored by Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam. The pair hope it will prove there is no such thing as sexual deviance as almost nothing is seen as out of bounds.

The survey is so vast it is viewed by many experts as the most complete analysis of human sexual desires.
Among the findings are the fact straight men prefer heavier women to thinner ones and find feet erotic.
They also enjoy a wide variety of erotic images, including bizarrely both elderly women and transsexuals.
Meanwhile straight women enjoy reading about and watching romances between two men, but only when the focus is on emotion and not sex.

Gay men and straight men were found to have the same favourite body parts, which in order are chests, buttocks then feet.
Surprisingly, search engine results from Dogpile, which provided the search data from Google, Yahoo! and Bing, said almost 80 per cent of internet searches were made up of 20 interests, ranging from youth, to cheerleaders.

Mr Ogas told the New York Post: 'Sex therapists haven’t known which interests are common and which are rare,'
'We probably now know more than ever before.'
Doctors said the findings may now help reassure patients who think what they are interested in is perverse or disturbed, when it may actually be quite common.

Information from the search also found men fantasise about group sex more than women, and picture more men than women in the action.
Straight men prefer to watch amateur porn online and domination and submission is popular among straight women and gay men. Gay men also enjoy watching straight porn.

Experts think because porn is so readily available on the internet it may be helping human desire evolve as billions of men and women log-on more and more.
Prior to the internet boom there were less than 90 porn magazines but now an estimated 2.5million porn sites have been blocked.

However, Donald Symons, a pre-eminent evolutionary psychologist in America, thinks the survey does not necessarily prove people find the images arousing and they may just be searching out of curiosity.
Others point out that there is no way of knowing what motivated any of the searches.

Dr Symons told the New York Post: 'Ogi is convinced that when people are searching for things, it’s primarily for sexual arousal. I’m not so sure about that. If there was a porn star with three breasts - I bet there would be a zillion hits. Would that be a sign men were suddenly aroused by that? I think not.'

The book's authors however, argue that the study does prove a sexual desire as they noticed people were spending money on subscriptions and visiting the sites over and over again, proving they are not just curious.

I wasn't sure if this goes under "Weird Sex" or "Strange Crimes"...

And you can get high on Bath Salts???

Man arrested in bra, panties, accused of stabbing goat

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — A West Virginia man found wearing women's underwear and standing over a goat's carcass told police he was high on bath salts.

Mark L. Thompson of Alum Creek was arrested at his home Monday. A criminal complaint in Kanawha County Magistrate Court charges the 19-year-old with cruelty to animals.

Sheriff's Deputy J.S. Shackelford says witnesses reported Thompson standing near a neighbor's pygmy goat in a bedroom. He was wearing a bra and female underwear. The goat, a male named Bailey, had at least one stab wound.

Cpl. Sean Snuffer said Thompson indicated he had been high and "wasn't in his right mind."

Thompson was held on $50,000 bond Tuesday at the South Central Regional Jail. Jail records didn't indicate whether he had an attorney and no listed phone number was available.

Neighbor Lisa Powers said she bought the goat on Friday as a gift for her 4-year-old grandson, The Charleston Gazette reported.

"The baby just loved him," she told The Gazette.

Powers' nephew got a call from a neighbor early Monday morning saying the goat was in Thompson's house, Powers told the paper.

"They told him that my goat was wandering around in Mark's house and he'd better come and get it," she said. "They called my nephew because he'd been there before."

Two Swedes jailed for life over Philippine cybersex den
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-13356721

Kim and Maricel (not their real names) Young women and girls are often forced to work as cybersex chat girls

Two Swedish men, arrested in 2009, have been jailed for life for running a cybersex operation in the Philippines.

A court in the southern Philippines found Bo Stefan Sederholm, 31, and Emil Andreas Solemo, 35, guilty of trafficking charges.

The life sentences are unprecedented both for their severity and for the spotlight they cast on cybersex dens.

These involve naked women chatting and performing sexual acts in front of webcams for internet clients.

Three Filipinos were given 20-year jail sentences for helping the Swedes, who had set up the internet and payment systems, to run the business.

Regional court clerk Nelison Salcedo was quoted by AFP as saying judge Jeoffre Acebido had stressed the need to protect women.

"Disrespect for Filipino women and violations of our laws deserve the strongest condemnations from this court," Ms Salcedo quoted from the judge's ruling.

"It will not shirk from its duty to impose the most severe of penalties against anybody, be he a foreign national or a citizen of this country, who tramples upon the dignity of a woman by taking advantage of her vulnerability."
Under-age fears

The Swedes were arrested when police raided a commercial building in the town of Kauswagan, Mindanao, in April 2009.

Police found 17 naked Filipinas in front of computer screens, some of them under-age; they were described as having been forced into performing cybersex.

Ms Salcedo was quoted as saying that the women were paid 15,000 pesos ($350) a month.

"Once the client has paid for a private show, anything goes," she said.

The Swedish embassy in Bangkok, which oversees the Swedish consulate in Manila, confirmed the court ruling.

"We learned that they have been convicted and sentenced to life in prison," said senior consular officer Par Kageby.

Cybersex, or sexually explicit chat over the internet, is a growing industry in many parts of the world; business is booming is the Philippines.

The BBC's Manila correspondent, Kate McGeown, says an already established sex trade, high levels of poverty and a population that speaks at least basic English means there is a ready supply of girls.

Officials estimate that thousands could be working in the small apartments that are the usual locations of these so-called cybersex dens.

All internet sex is classed as pornography and therefore illegal in the Philippines, but what most concerns the authorities is the number of girls who are trafficked into these dens - many of whom are well under 18, the legal age of consent.

Revealed at last: the truth about sex and mule dung - The Sex Researchers, Channel 4, review
Michael Deacon is tickled by a new documentary series looking at scientists' theories on sex and their research.
7:30AM BST 17 Jun 2011

The past, in the end, is an innocent place. How serious its convictions are – and how comically naïve, mere generations later, they are revealed to be. Look at the past, poor thing, with its flat Earth, its leech cures, its witch-finder generals. What can one do but shake one’s head at its bumpkin ignorance, and congratulate oneself on having had the wisdom to be born in a spotlessly enlightened time like the present? I wonder what, in turn, people of the future will think when they look back at us, and at our behaviour and beliefs. I expect they’ll think something like, “Yes, human beings used to be pretty silly – but once they reached the early 21st century, they’d got everything worked out. Well done, inhabitants of the early 21st century!”

Such was the self-satisfaction that washed over me as I enjoyed The Sex Researchers (Channel 4), the first episode of a documentary series reminding us how hopeless previous generations were about sex, compared with today, when we all know everything and are sexually fulfilled.

Wrongness about sex, we learnt, goes back at least as far as Plato. He described a female malady called “womb fury”, in which the uterus would depart from its customary position and float off around the body, eventually reaching the windpipe and throttling its host from the inside. Happily the ancient Greeks were able to remedy this by placing the patient on a perfumed cushion while pushing the dung of a mule up her nostrils. This sounds like a Monty Python sketch, and I would imagine the producers of The Sex Researchers thought so too, because they illustrated it with an animation much in the style of Terry Gilliam’s, with a diagram of a uterus crawling across a woman’s torso like a mischievous spider.

Most historical attitudes towards sex seem to have been shaped by mystification about the female. Lust in women was taken as a sign of madness. In 19th-century France, the neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot devised a special method of demonstrating the instability of the female mind. Before an audience of fellow scientists, among them Freud, he proved that by touching an attractive young female assistant in certain areas he could “induce a spectacular response” – the show-off – which could only, he declared, “be interpreted as a form of mental breakdown”.

In Victorian England, by contrast, some experts believed that genital manipulation was not the cause of female lunacy but a potential cure. Concerned husbands would pay doctors to alleviate their wives’ hysteria by providing what I suppose a family newspaper can describe only as an intimate massage. “The treatment proved immensely popular,” said the voice-over, “and increasing numbers of women began to report symptoms.” 8)

By the time we reached the story of the 18th-century scientist whose research into reproduction involved dressing male frogs in tiny taffeta trousers, I began to suspect I was suffering from hysteria myself, although I should add that I did not choose the Victorian method of relieving it.

From time to time we learnt about more recent studies. One of these concluded that women are aroused by a wider range of stimuli than men are, and are thus “less focused when it comes to their sexuality”, which sounds like a polite way of saying they’re easy. These scientists want to be careful. Slut Walks have been organised over less.

Almost everything in the programme made me want to snigger, which I realise is pathetically British. But it wasn’t sex itself that I found amusing, so much as the earnestness with which experts have investigated it. My favourite expert was William H Masters, an American who, in the Sixties, suggested to his pretty female colleague Virginia Johnson that “as part of their research” they should have sex with each other. She agreed, so they did, conducting their experiment at his house, although only after he’d sent his wife and children off on a nice long holiday.

From the Washington Post:-

On the Beltway, a claim of drunken sex at 85 mph

By Tom Jackman

Lawsuits after car crashes are beyond common. But in the Fairfax County courthouse, a lawsuit about a crash on the Beltway last year is dropping a few jaws as it makes the rounds and heads toward trial next week. Among the latest allegations in the lawsuit pending in Fairfax County Circuit Court:

Paragraph 10. “At the time of the collision, Defendant was going 85 miles per hour.”

Paragraph 12. “At the time of the collision, Defendant was having sex with a female.”

Paragraph13. “At the time of the collision, Defendant was driving admittedly drunk.”

Paragraph 14. “At the time of the accident, Defendant was partially or totally in the backseat of the car.”

Wait, WHA? 85 miles per hour? The backseat? And what happened to paragraph 11?

Records show the defendant, from Woodbridge, was convicted in Fairfax district court of drunken driving near Telegraph Road in May 2010. But now he denies he was driving. (What?) He was coming from his 21st birthday party in Baltimore, court records state. The woman involved has been dismissed from the case. There was someone ELSE in the car too, and HE denies driving as well.

The defendant’s lawyer, Frank Prior, said there was “no statement by anyone that they were driving on the Beltway having sex” and “no facts on it.” The plaintiff, a 28-year-old cab driver, is seeking $75,000 in damages and is represented by Douglas R. Stevens, who declined to comment beyond his court filings.

But Stevens sought punitive damages against the defendant and the friend, arguing in a pleading that “having sex at 85 miles per hour while drunk on a freeway is willful and wanton negligence.” A Fairfax judge threw out the punitive damages claim.

The case is set for trial next week.

Not that weird, but as far as I can see there's not been a mention of the love nut on the MB before:

Royal honeymooners' 'erotic' Seychelles souvenir
By Tim Ecott
Seychelles

The recently married Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were presented with an unusual souvenir by the Seychelles government after their honeymoon to the country - a rare and mysterious coconut famed for its erotic shape.

...

People flock here to see the coco-de-mer, partly because it is the biggest seed in the world - a true botanical curiosity - and partly because it is, well, best described as a rude shape.
On the tree, the coconut is a giant green orb, but inside, with the outer husk removed, it closely resembles a female human bottom.

Not surprisingly, coco-de-mer nuts sell for high prices and you need an export permit to take them out of the Seychelles.
The erotic connotations of the coco-de-mer are obvious whether or not you are a royal honeymooner.

In China, the meat of the nut is taken as an aphrodisiac.

And as if the nut's rotund charms were not enough, the trees themselves are clearly male and female.

While the female trees bear the nuts - which grow for about seven years before they fall - the male trees grow enormous catkins, giant phallus shaped tubes studded with hundreds of delicate yellow flowers that give off a musky odour.

In Seychelles creole, the fruit is called "coco fesse" which crudely translates as "bum nut".

...

A Seychelles legend says that during a full moon the coco-de-mer trees walk around the forest in order to mate.
That is how they produce their erotically shaped "love nuts".

Standing under the dense, green canopy, with the lilting cry of the black parrot echoing through the trees, it does seem like a place where stranger things have happened.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/f ... 538059.stm
 
Not only does the superstition say that the plants (or rather the male plants) walk around to mate, but also anyone who sees this act is immediately transformed into a bird

In-flight film "explains" mysteries of female pleasure
By Pauline Askin | Reuters – 9 hrs ago


SYDNEY (Reuters) - The in-flight entertainment on some planes run by Australian airline Qantas currently contains a somewhat unusual offering -- a movie that purports to elucidate the mysteries of female sexual pleasure.

The 50-minute French film "The Female Orgasm Explained," which includes naked scenes, is carried on long-haul "Video on Demand" aircraft in the airline's "The Edge" channel -- complete with a warning that it is for mature audiences only.

"In general programs are selected according to quality of content, box office/ratings, topicality and Qantas customer demographics," Qantas said in a statement, adding that programs were screened by their program team before licensing.

"With the Edge, we source programs that are out of the ordinary across all genres."

Airline crews are able to block content to the seats of minors and at the requests of their parents, it added.

The film will be run until November.

The choice of film may be a bit risky given the fact that airlines are usually quite careful about what they show, said Catriona Eider, an associate professor at the Department of Sociology and Social Policy, Sydney University.

"I think sociologically it's interesting they are showing something that has the potential in that quite confined space to have people say 'Oh, what are you watching?' or shows that might be understood as titillating as porn," she said.

But she added that changing social norms mean that off-limit topics have shifted.

"'In Sex and the City', the orgasm is something pretty much spoken in everyday levels. It's no longer the taboo subject it was."

Neighbours cop an earful from screaming Swedish w*nker

Malmö onanist 'moans louder than an animal'

By Lester Haines

A Malmö man with a penchant for vociferous five-knuckle shuffling may have to put a sock in it after his traumatised neighbours reported him for really giving it some stick when cracking one off.

The shouty onanist apparently had previous form for watching the telly late at night with the volume cranked up, but his vocal solo performances proved the last straw.

Five tenants in the same building, who reckoned their landlord had failed to get a grip on the situation, filed a stiff complaint with the Malmö environmental administration, aka the Miljöförvaltningen, describing how their neighbour "masturbates and screams".

One wrote: "He moans louder than an animal... I can feel how it affects my state of mind."

HAMILTON - A repeat public indecency offender has been arrested for allegedly engaging in "sexual activity" with a pink inflatable swimming pool raft, according to Hamilton police.

Edwin Charles Tobergta, 32, was arrested at his Harmon Avenue home early Sunday after he was spotted in the act in an alley in the 1800 block of Howell Avenue behind a residence, a police report shows.

A male witness, who owns the raft and lives in the home near the alley, told Hamilton Police Officer William Thacker he shouted at the suspect to stop.

Tobergta took the raft and fled, the report states.

When police caught up with him, he admitted to the crime and begged for help, according to police.

"Defendant advised officers that he was doing it but only because he has a problem and that he needs help and please don't send him to prison but send him somewhere to get help," the report reads.

Tobergta, who remains at the Hamilton city jail, had been arrested at least five times for similar offenses, most recently in 2008, Hamilton Municipal Court records state.

Tobergta’s grandmother, Linda Tobergta, cried as she explained to a reporter Wednesday how the family has tried to seek mental care for her grandson over the years, to no avail. He suffers from Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and has abused his medication in the past, she said.

“He has a lot of mental problems and he’s always had a fascination for plastic,” she said. “That’s just it. That’s all of it. We never could get the proper care for Edwin. It’s like nobody cares.”

Googling Rubiato brings up some 908,000,000 hits, some of them for the hispanic surname but most of them for the masturbating boy story.

If there is such a place at all, it can consider itself to have been put on the map.

Maybe a Fiesta Grande Onanista should follow. I think it may already exist:

"Onán estaba antes de Dios, y antes de todo, antes del infinito. Jesús de Neanderthal fue el primero en tener una erección . . . "

That Spanish wank-page also has a rather bizarre video of a youth blowing himself up with a firework. :shock:

‘Asexual’ cross-dresser spared jail over child porn

A man who now lives as a woman has been spared jail after admitting possessing indecent images of children in a case described by a judge as unique.

Michaela Hammersley, 58, formerly known as Richard Michael Hammersley, had previously pleaded guilty to 16 charges relating to the images after police found them in the dining room of her home at Riddlesden in September 2008.

Prosecutor Giles Bridge told Bradford Crown Court yesterday Hammersley had said in a police interview she felt the images were beautiful and did not accept they were indecent.

The court heard the images were of level one, the least serious. Judge Jonathan Rose said it was a case on an “entirely different footing” to any other he had come across in his 30 years in criminal law.

The roots of Hammersley’s offending dated back to when she was a boy, he said, “who was uncomfortable with being a boy and more importantly with being in the company of boys”.

He said Hammersley, who described herself as asexual, had “never been in my view someone whose attraction to femininity and children has had its root at all in matters of sexual behaviour”.

Judge Rose said he had seen photographs of Hammersley’s living circumstances, which he said could almost be those of a seven or eight-year-old girl, and included dolls and “pink, pretty things”.

The judge said he was describing Hammersley’s circumstances to explain why he was not sending her to prison.

Hammersley, formerly of Western Avenue, Riddlesden, but now of Dunster Road, Southport, was sentenced to a three-year community order with supervision and ordered to sign the sex offenders register for five years.

Shock of single mother who discovered her long-term boyfriend was actually a WOMAN
By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 12:07 PM on 3rd October 2011

A single mother has told of her torment after discovering how her long-time lover tricked her into believing he was a man when in fact she was a woman.
Nicole Lindsay was shocked to learn the 'boyfriend' she hoped to marry was a lesbian sex offender called Samantha Brooks.
Police told her that Brooks, who she had always known as Lee, was once jailed for abusing a 14-year-old girl.

The bizarre story of how Nicole, mother of two daughters aged six and two, was fooled emerged when Brooks was arrested.
She was charged with obtaining sex by deception from Nicole and another former friend and two counts of assault.

Nicole said: 'When the police told me Lee was a she I just couldn't believe it. I was in shock. I've been through hell.
'The thought of how Lee deceived me and my whole family has given me nightmares and made me feel sick.'

Nicole described her relationship with Brooks who used a modified wooden toilet roll holder in their sexual relationship.
She told the Sunday People she was uncomfortable being naked in front of a partner while Brooks claimed he felt the same way after suffering testicular cancer.
Brooks even conned her into believing her body had been scarred by a previous partner as the reason she wore bandages around the chest - which hid her breasts.

She first made contact when Nicole was 14 in 2001. But they did not meet until 2006 by which time she had a baby girl, aged 18 months, but was not with the father.
They began a long-distance relationship staying weekends at each other's homes before breaking up in 2007. Later that year, Brooks wrote saying she was in prison for beating up a paedophile.
Nicole admitted: ' I didn't think too badly of him [Samantha]. I can understand the provocation.'

But unknown to her Brooks had been jailed for 18 months at Isleworth Crown Court of sexual offences against a girl of 14 and put on a sex offenders' register for 10 years.
After her release, Brooks got in touch with Nicole, now a mother of two, and she even proposed marriage and set a date for the wedding in March 2010.
But Nicole's family grew suspicious of the 'man' who had no facial hair or an Adam's apple.
Nicole told the People: 'I didn't believe Lee could be a woman. We had been having sex on and off for years. But I knew he was hiding something.'

She was finally told the shocking truth last September when police arrested Brooks and she was called to a police station.
But her anguish did not end there,. Police dropped the case before it came to trial when Nicole's former friend withdrew her co-operation with prosecutors.

Nicole, from Glasgow, agreed to give up her anonymity to warn unsuspecting girls about Brooks.
When approached, Brooks, from Uxbridge, north west London, declined to discuss her behaviour or her previous conviction and denied she had met Nicole.

Nepal jails 19 over 'Himalayan Viagra' murders

A court in Nepal has convicted 19 villagers over the murder of a group of farmers during a fight over a prized aphrodisiac plant dubbed the "Himalayan Viagra", an official said Tuesday.

Seven farmers were killed in the remote northern district of Manang in June 2009 after going to forage for Yarchagumba, a rare parasitic plant that is a major source of income for many Himalayan communities.

The accused claimed the farmers died accidentally when a fight broke out over the right to harvest the plant, which is in particular demand in China where a kilogramme can fetch tens of thousands of dollars.

The valley near the border with China where the victims went missing in June 2009 is among the most remote parts of Nepal, and it was several weeks before authorities learned of the deaths.

"Six have been found guilty of murder," Shambhu Baral, a court registrar at Manang District Court told AFP, adding that they had been given 20-year sentences.

"A group of 13 have been sentenced to two years in jail, but they have already spent their time in custody," he added.

"Evidence showed that the six were directly involved in the murder while the rest had provided indirect help. Another 21 defendants have been declared innocent," he said.

The court, which is a two day walk from the nearest road, has had to delay the verdict more than a dozen times due to absent judges and lawyers.

Local authorities say police had to walk for days to reach the area where the bodies of the seven men were discovered.

They initially arrested the entire village, but later released the women and children.

Derby student trapped in clothes horse rescued by firefighters
Danielle Morgan Miss Morgan said the clothes horse fell on her when she fell off the bed

A University of Derby student had to be cut free by firefighters after being trapped in a clothes horse for more than an hour.

Danielle Morgan said she had been "mucking about" in her flatmate's bedroom when the accident happened.

Friends and staff at Sir Peter Hilton Court hall of residence tried to free her before calling the fire service.

The 18-year-old said she had been left with bruising to her neck and shoulders but could now laugh about the accident.

Miss Morgan said: "My friends just thought it was hilarious.

"I found it funny at first but after it got taken off I had a panic attack and the ambulance came out."

Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that they used cutting equipment to free Miss Morgan from the clothes horse.

Firefighters were called to Agard Street in Derby at 21:25 GMT on Sunday.

Miss Morgan, who is originally from North Wales, had fallen off the bed of her flatmate Lisa Smith, 18.

The clothes horse fell on top of her and her head went through the frame.

She tried to move a quilt which had been drying on the clothes horse, which then locked into place.

Miss Morgan's friends filmed and took photos of her while she was trapped.

She said: "I phoned one of my friends from home when I was stuck in it and she just thought I was drunk."

Firefighters used a tool kit and bolt croppers to cut Miss Morgan free.

Miss Smith said: "I don't think they quite believed it to begin with."

Zimbabwe women accused of raping men 'for rituals'
By Steve Vickers, BBC News, Harare

Zimbabwean police believe there is a nationwide syndicate of women raping men, possibly to use their semen for use in rituals that claim to make people wealthy.
It has taken more than a year for any arrests to be made, and on Monday three women are to go on trial in the capital, Harare, over the allegations which have shocked the country.

One alleged victim, who wished to remain anonymous, gave an account on national television in July of his experience which happened after he was offered a lift by a group of three women in Harare.
"One of the women threw water in my face and they injected me with something that gave me a strong sexual desire," he said.
"They stopped the car and made me have sex with each of them several times, using condoms.
"When they had finished they left me in the bush totally naked.

"Some people gathering grass helped me by calling the police, who took me to hospital to deal with the effects of this drug that I had been given, as the urge to have sex was still there."

The women due in court have been charged on 17 counts of aggravated indecent assault - as Zimbabwean law does not recognise the act of a woman raping a man.
They were detained earlier this month in the central town of Gweru, 275km (170 miles) south-west of Harare, after officers found 31 used condoms in the car that they were travelling in.
The women deny the charges, saying they are prostitutes and were too busy at the time to dispose of the condoms.

After being released on bail last month, they were confronted and threatened by a crowd. They say they have been forced to remain at home since then, to avoid unwanted attention.

Police spokesperson Superintendent Andrew Phiri told the BBC that they believe that there is a syndicate operating nationwide.
"We have received reports from around the country from different towns and provinces, it's been happening on the highways," he said.
"We are yet to find out the real reason why this is happening. We have heard speculation that it's linked to rituals."

He appealed for witnesses to come forward.
"We need to hear from people who are prepared to tell," the superintendent said.

The semen is believed to be used in rituals to bring success in business, and there are suggestions that the semen is being taken outside the country for sale.
But cultural expert and sociology lecturer Claude Mararikei told the BBC that it was not clear how the semen would be used.
"It's in the area of rituals and magic, which border on secret societies," he said.
"Even researchers don't want to go into that area because you may not come out alive to publish whatever you find out."

While the first accounts of men alleging that they had been raped by women were generally met with curiosity and disbelief, men who spoke to the BBC say that they are now taking the issue very seriously.

"When I travel I only use buses where people are travelling in numbers now, I won't get a lift in private cars, especially if there are women inside," said a man called Witness.
"You must exercise caution, women are raping men, it's happening."

Some women in Harare, like Sibongile, worry it is giving their gender a bad image.
"I wish that people could be encouraged to work for their money in a good way. It's evil that's gone into women's heads to cause them to be that greedy, that they want easy money," she told the BBC in the city centre.

The police have not given a figure for the number of cases reported.
Nakai Nengomasha, a counsellor who is working with three men who say that they are victims of female rapists, believes that there could be more cases who have not come forward.
"I think there has been a lot of under-reporting because the victims will feel not man enough to talk about such issues and that will hinder them from speaking out," he said.
"They need to deal with denial which comes from a deeply rooted mistaken belief that men are immune to being victimised and that they should be able to fight back if they are truly a real man.
"Some have to deal with the issue of seeing the assault as a loss of manhood and feel disgusted with themselves."

That is how the man who spoke about his alleged ordeal on television feels, saying he even contemplated suicide.
"I feel violated and disappointed, because when I told my wife what happened, she left me, together with one of our three children. I'm hoping that she will come back."

Frostrup 'did not realise pampas plants advertised swinging'
30 November 2011 Last updated at 19:16

Mariella Frostrup, the host of Radio 4's Open Book, says she had no idea pampas grass plants had sexual connotations, when she placed them outside her flat.
Placing the plants on show, is apparently an invitation to other swingers.

Frostrup, who just liked the look of the plants, said a dinner guest explained to her what the grass could signal.
She added: "What I found out was that I had actually signposted my flat on both sides as a swingers' paradise".

Frostrup told the BBC's PM programme she had a huge response on Twitter when she tweeted about the mix-up.

OMG!! There's a big clump of this stuff in our front garden - I can see it from my window! But as this building is comprised of over-sixties residences, I doubt much swinging has been going on.
(If it has, the buggers never invited me! :( )

But Wiki says:
Swinging

A widespread urban myth is that Pampas grass is used by swingers to advertise their presence to other swingers in the area. The most commonly repeated version states that in the UK and Ireland a patch of Pampas grass is planted somewhere in the front garden to act as a signal to passersby that swingers live in the home

It's the waterslide-high club: Couple caught having sex at top of a flume

It was the thrill of a lifetime for this couple at an amusement park... having sex on top of a water slide.
They were caught on CCTV as the girl straddled her boyfriend before they hurtled down the shute in Opoczno, Poland.
But within moments of joining the 'waterslide-high club', they were escorted straight to the park exit - without even being allowed to retrieve their clothes.

'They were at it for a good five minutes before anyone realised what was going on in what must have been a breach of the water park rules,' one lifeguard said.
A pool spokesman added: 'This is a family pool and water park and we want everyone to have fun, but not that sort of fun.'

At Alton Towers, the wearing of Speedos is banned at its Splash Landing resorts to 'maintain the family friendly atmosphere'.
