I like to do the turn around. Start seeing a girl either beardless or bearded. Then after a few months or weeks you switch it up. Then she's like "Oh gosh it's so sexy" and you get great sex. Then when she gets bored of it you change it up again and the great sex reappears.

right. it's your face she's bored with.

My elder sister (age 46) has been shaving hers since she was 18. She has never been involved in such photographic activities - she just doesn't like having hair "down there" as she calls it. An ex-girlfriend (who was a nude model) simply refused to shave for anybody. So, you can't categorise. --Redrose64 (talk) 15:55, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

H. Allen Smith wrote an article for True magazine in 1964, collected in Low Man Rides Again (1973) about a gentleman named O'Rourke whom he dubs the "Father of Octopus Wrestling." According to information Smith collected from Idwal Jones and other sources, O'Rourke and a partner developed a business in the late 1940s of fishing for octopuses with O'Rourke serving as live bait and his partner hauling him out of the water after an octopus was sufficiently wrapped around him.

1. Has won a well-known award such as an AVN Award. (See Category:Pornographic film awards or Category:Film awards for other awards which may apply.)
2. Has received nominations for well-known awards in multiple years.[11]
3. Has made unique contributions to a specific pornographic genre, such as beginning a trend in pornography; starred in an iconic, groundbreaking or blockbuster feature; or is a member of an industry Hall of Fame such as the AVN Hall of Fame, XRCO Hall of Fame or equivalent.
4. Has been featured multiple times in notable mainstream media.

basically everything from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Female_ejaculation

quote:
A review of the evidence for orgasm in nonhuman primates with the author's own evidence from the digital stimulation of female chimpanzees suggestings that something akin to interspecies orgasm occurs in chimps (this apparently was not a reciprocal arrangement). Though this research will probsbly be most remembered for the original data collected (and the original data collection method) actually the most bizarre part of this paper is the author's suggestion that female orgasm evolved to stimulate male ejaculation. Few theories on the function of female orgasm have flown in the face of such counter evidence as this one, but I actually heard the first author present it at a national meeting in great seriousness and with a straight face.

yeah newton was a giant poo poo, it's amazing how much people overlook that

i wanna give liebniz credit for inventing calculus just because he was nicer

leibniz had to be sociable because he was dependent on wealthy patrons. that also made him extremely conservative, and he worked hard to maintain the status quo, which meant that he clung on to medieval scholasticism instead of rejecting it like the English had. his contributions to math and logic were great, but his philosophical writings were a throwback to thomas aquinas and st. augustine.

but i will give more credit to leibniz than newton, because leibniz actually published his work, instead of wasting his time loving around with alchemy.
