Thanks. Interesting study - I only read the first 2 paras.

Here's an alternative - how about using a condom?

Maybe they don't make them big enough for African men. . You would think there would be no sexual diseases with having the condom, but even if you look at the stats of UK alone and the hight percentage of syphillis and other sexual diseases at the moment, it seems that many don't seem to like wearing them.

True - but a lot of those infections only need to come into contact with a moist warm area - penetration is not required (unlike HIV) (sorry for the openness of this post!)

And the other issue is monogamous relationships, and getting checked-out before starting a new relationship.

The responsible thing would be to do so. However go out in the UK on a weekend and you will see the aim seems to be to get as pissed as you can, and who you are going to end up in bed with. That seems to be for the women as much as it is for the men. I doubt safe sex comes into the equation at that stage. One of my colleagues' daughter has just turned 18, she has probably had 5 or 6 sexual partners since she was 15 and also recently an abortion. It seems to be quite normal to her and her peers.

Having seen (Could not imagine the actual number... let's say MANY) Black penis's at work.... they are not always any bigger than white ones.

Just thought I'd clear that up! Ahe does play an important factor in the size of male genitalia of course and weight.

Catheters come in many sizes.... but that doesn't include different lenghts.

(Ok, here's a secret... most men wake up and don't even know we've insterted a tube into their penis)
My advise... USE a condom... there's stuff out there that will make you dick drop off.

It's not just the terminology it's 'sue' city here and I have been out of it for over 7 yrs now (I even had to stop and think of the name of the broken cheekbone )
Physical restraints can be applied if we get a doctors order within one hour. Usually there's a PRN for Ativan floating about.

Maybe they should use more gory material in their sex education at school, it might make some of them think about it more and the consequences.

Our teacher demonstrated an erection using a yard stick.

Almost ruined the 80's for me.

I like your thinking! (and they need to be taught communication skills)

I saw no need for the "muslim" in there.

Sadly many women from all sorts of backgrounds are treated like shit
