Everything you know about sex is true.

Now this sounds a bit scarry... A new martial arts video in China reportedly teaches men how to make their crotch as hard as iron.

Screenshot from 'Iron Crutch Kungfu' video

In the video, a monk named Shi Yanwu demonstrates Tiedang Gong - or 'Iron Crotch Kung Fu' - by having another monk kick him in the privates or having a guy hanging by a rope from his penis, and using his penis to pull a heavy stone roller.

The video claims that by practicing the martial art, "a man can not only protect himself better, but also improve his sexual agility and potency."

Couldn't find the mentioned video, but here's another one, this time it is some demo of iron crotch truck pulling and there's help available if you ever wanted to try that at home.

More crotch madness.

Ecuadorean airline has put models in lingerie in the aisles in a bid to attract customers

Among the Amazonian Desana, all members of a tribal group a believed to share a similar odour. Marriage is only allowed between persons of different odours, so spouses must be chosen from other tribal groups. This belief is expressed in rituals involving the exchanges of goods with different odours: one group will present the other with a gift of meat, for example, and receive fish in return. Some rituals involve the exchange of differently scented ants. The same goes with Batek Negrito of the Malay Peninsula who take the taboo a step further: not only is sexual intercourse between those of similar odour prohibited, but even sitting too close to one another for too long is believed to cause disease in the people involved and in any children they may conceive (via).

Research has demonstrated that humans use body odour to identify genetically appropriate mates.

One of his proposals is a blind dating agency aimed at individuals wishing to meet a suitable partner for procreation. Olfactory communication is given precidence over visual stimuli.

A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then rejected in 1994, building the so-called "Gay Bomb."

"The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another," Hammond said after reviewing the documents.

"The notion was that a chemical that would probably be pleasant in the human body in low quantities could be identified, and by virtue of either breathing or having their skin exposed to this chemical, the notion was that soliders would become gay," explained Hammond.

However, Hammond said the government records he obtained suggest the military gave the plan much stronger consideration than it has acknowledged.
