  - “Women's genitals, it seems, respond to all sex, all the time. Show a woman scenes of a man and a woman having sex, or two women having sex, or two men, or even two bonobos, Dr. Chivers said, and as a rule her genitals will become measurably congested and lubricated, although in many cases she may not be aware of the response.”

  - “"Now close your eyes and imagine this: a restaurant chain called 'Dicks' that entices its customers with the opportunity to be served by an exclusively young male staff dressed in skintight orange shorts that accentuate their penises. Dick's signature dish is a kosher, all-beef hot dog that can be served 'All The Way.' And Dicks donates money to prostate and penile cancer research."
    
    Um. Sounds awesome to me?”
