Brain scan data backs up what women have been telling men for decades: stimulating the vagina is not the same as stimulating the clitoris

@oristarA,
The impact of this caption stems from the word-play "on the brain" being equivalent to "always on the mind" i.e "preoccupied with". Also the words "mapped out" ( like "spelled out") don't merely refer to the brain scan data but imply a claim for "scientific or logical basis" for sexual techniques, which had previously lay in the realm of ad hoc experiential "advice".

NB: Mathematics: A "mapping" is a correspondence (in this case "turn on"...more word play) between "an object set" (in this case sexual organs) and and "an image set" (in this case areas of the cortex).

Oh, you can draw a picture of the BRAIN if you want to. . . .

There are many female erogenous zones that scientists have yet to study, the breast and neck for instance.

And it is said skin is the biggest sexual organ. So touching femals is a sexual harassment.

@oristarA,
The term "family website" implies that you aren't allowed to post anything relating to graphic sex (since a "family" would include children).

Oolong is joking about what type of picture would answer your question.

The common expression, "as poor as a church mouse," is a vivid figurative expression. When mice infest a house, they do so because there is food there, as well as shelter. A mouse who is foolish enough to move into a church is not going to find any food there.

No!!!, but that mouse might find god, hallelujah!.

Blessed are the mice for they shall inherit the earth.
