And it just 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,160 Speaker 1: give me a wild Guess what you think of vagina 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: looks like on the inside? Like if you had to 4 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 1: the inside on the inside. And we know what evolva 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: looks like, but what do you think of vagina looks 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: like on the inside if you had to draw it? Um? 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: I the first okay, honestly, the first image that came 8 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 1: to my mind when you asked that immediately flashed into 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: my head. Uh. Pinocchio when he gets swallowed by the whale. 10 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: I saw the interior ridges, the uvula, the tongue, and 11 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: the and then Pocchio the teeth. Of course, Uh, we 12 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: all know that vaginas have teeth. Great time to tell 13 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: the people my vagina, didn't Tata? And then I even 14 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: and even a little Pinocchio and they're building a fire 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: so you can get sneezed out. That's my I gotta ladies, 16 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: guess what you got? A little cup of can fire 17 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: in their little Pinocchio building fire so you can get 18 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: sneezed out, rafting leaf at it, get it higher. You know. 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: It's there's times where intuition just you know, they give 20 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: us the science we don't need to explore because we 21 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: already know. Why would we question that? So you would 22 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: have no you would you would say this and then 23 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: say no science required. I know it's true and I 24 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: don't need any proof. Yeah. Well guess what, baby, you're 25 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: a lot like Leonardo da Vinci. Did you know that 26 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: you had a lot in common of Leonardo? I have 27 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: always said so, so yeah, well yeah, our story today 28 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: involves Leonardo da Vinci having a really dumb idea about 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: a Pinocchio and a vagina and no one checking his 30 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: work for a long time. All right, all right, so 31 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: I say let's jump in because I want to take us. 32 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: When Ida Sabelli's phone is ringing and it's her best 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: friend's partner, a doctor named Manko Victor Peck van Andel, 34 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: and he has a very normal question to ask Ida. 35 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: He wants to know if Ida and her boyfriend Jup 36 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: would be willing to have sex in an MRI machine 37 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: while he watches this is about a new cank or 38 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: something that you haven't heard about. Peck just wanted to 39 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: create a totally unique piece of body art using the 40 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: magnetic resonance imaging to show what's really going on internally 41 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,119 Speaker 1: when men and women have sex. He thought they would 42 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: be really cool art project. But this little sexperiment turned 43 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: out to be pretty important for science as well. So 44 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: let's hear about Ida and Juke and the sextiest MRI 45 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: art project turned scientific discovery in history. Hey, their French 46 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: come listen. Well, Elia and Diana got some stories to tell. 47 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: There's no matchmaking a romantic tips. It's just about pridiculous relationship. 48 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: He love. There might be any type of person at all, 49 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: and abstract cons that don't a concrete wall. But if 50 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: there's a story with a second clanch, ridiculous roles, a 51 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: production of I Heart Radio. Okay, before we dive right 52 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: into the m r I sex stuff, um, we do 53 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: need a little bit of backstory about the anatomical study 54 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,119 Speaker 1: of our reproductive organ of course. Um, so we're gonna 55 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: kick off this episode with a quick fling with history. Eureka. Well, babe, 56 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: I hate to tell you this, but you're wrong about 57 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: the Pinocchio thing. I've just want you to know a 58 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: woman's vagina isn't comfarable to a cartoon whales throat not 59 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: quite as capacious. Guess that's the public education sex education 60 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: classes for you. You know, like that's what we got. 61 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: That's what I got. Pinocchio. Yeah, they just played Pinocchio 62 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: for us actually, and they were like, this is sex, said, 63 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: have fun. Wow. Well you're not the only one who 64 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: was misled, because I don't know if you knew this, 65 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: but for five centuries, science thought that a woman's vagina 66 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: was perfectly cylindrical, like a grain silo, and that their 67 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: cervixes opened up like a pac man to interlock with 68 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: the penis. Excuse me, chomp, chump, chomp, literally chomp chomp 69 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: on your dick. Wow. So even with vaginal sex, you're 70 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: getting oral sex but from a pac man. Wow. I 71 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: never thought about it like that. Wow. Guys really getting 72 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: the best of both worlds in this scenario. Yeah. Who 73 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: hasn't want to half their knob gobbled by a pac man. Well, unfortunately, 74 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: thanks to artists, scientists, and inventor Leonardo da Vinci, we 75 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: did really think that. We thought that vaginas were cylindrical 76 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: and that the cervix locked with the penis um. Leo 77 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: also thought that the penis went straight in and straight 78 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: out with zero conformity to the female shape, like real 79 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: finger in your thumbhole. Five he drew sketches of this 80 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: in and we just kind of went with it for 81 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: five years. I gotta wonder if somebody ever asked Leonardo 82 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: da Vinci, like, hey, buddy, uh, have you ever had 83 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: sex before? Like do you know? And He's like, sure, yes, 84 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: I thought of the sex all the time. You think 85 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: the thing, you put it in the uhan and out, 86 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: in and out like, oh, Leo, I feel so bad 87 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: for your lady friends. I don't know Leo. Leo also 88 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: some some gay stuff in his life, so maybe he's 89 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: only he only knew what a when it felt like 90 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: to do a boy. I don't know. That was really 91 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: like walking on glass way of saying that he likes 92 00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: butt holes. I don't know, but it but it does. 93 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't have a penis myself, but do 94 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: you feel like when you have sex, does it feel 95 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: like it conforms to a female shape? Like do you 96 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: feel it bending? I don't know. I guess I would 97 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: say that I've never really put that much thought into 98 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: the differences between those two sensations, so it's hard for 99 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: me to say. I guess, try and pay attention next time. 100 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe that's what Leo had. He was like, 101 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: I was busy thinking, so as far as I could 102 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: start against straight end straight out. So yeah, he drew 103 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: some sketches of this, and these sketches are known as 104 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: coition figures. And while Leonardo da Vinci did study cadavers 105 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: quite a lot, he did not use any for these sketches. 106 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: He just used some ancient Greek and Arabian medical texts. Oh, 107 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: he's like it says here, Uh, there's a four ghosts 108 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: inside every woman's cervis that grab on the penis and 109 00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: just a yank on it, I will draw. Uh. Marry 110 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: Roach points out in her book The Curious Coupling of 111 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: Sex and Science that if Leo had used cadavers, he 112 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: probably wouldn't have left out the ovaries and the prostate 113 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: from his sketches. Um. But even with that compelling evidence 114 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: that his sketch was pro sketchy, it took a very 115 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: long time for anyone to challenge his assumptions. That is 116 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: until a gynecologist named Robert Latu Dickinson decided to give 117 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: it a world himself. Mary Roach writes that this guy 118 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: gathered data for his groundbreaking book at Lists of Human 119 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: Sex Anatomy from the eighteen nineties until the nineteen thirties. Now, 120 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: unlike da Vinci, Dickinson did use cadavers as well as 121 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: living bodies for his research. I got to say, I 122 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure it's fine, but I do get automatically a 123 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: little concerned when someone's like, I'm a sex researcher, I've 124 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: been using all these cadavers, like oh no, oh no. 125 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: Has to be very clear in the footnotes, like did 126 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: I wonder if that's like his constant thing. He's defending himself, 127 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: Like every party he goes to, he's like, I do 128 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: sex research. I have cadavers, and they're like, oh yeah, 129 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: just like everyone makes that joke. I'm so sick of it. 130 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: Not doing that, I'm making plaster casts of their dead 131 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: genitaliums Okay, totally normal and cool. Mary talks about this 132 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: guy using X rays of wounds to trace pictures like, uh, 133 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: third grader trying to jar a really cool batman. You know, 134 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: I'm just going to trace that. I just remember that's 135 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: what I did with tracing paper. Um. But he also 136 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: quote over the years, crafted a hundred and two plaster 137 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: casts of patients hymen's, volva's, and vaginas in all their 138 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: various forms and States, and this guy really wanted to 139 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: rebut the claim that a man's penis just drives straight 140 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: into and docks with the cervix right like he's you know, 141 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: I've excuse me. I've had my penis and a number 142 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: of vaginas and I never felt a pac man chomping 143 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: up my bits. Wonder if any women too were like M, 144 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't think my cervix does. That seems very off, 145 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: but I guess if you say so. Doctor. He wanted 146 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: to disprove this, partly because I was wrong, and partly 147 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,439 Speaker 1: due to the popularity of a woman named Marie Carmichael Stokes. 148 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: And Marie's expertise was in paleobotany, but she is best 149 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: known for founding Britain's first family planning clinic and for 150 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: writing a best selling and quite controversial sex manual in 151 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: nineteen eighteen called Married Love Now. According to Mary Roach, 152 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: Stops wrote Married Love while she was a virgin, so 153 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: maybe didn't know what the hell she's talking about. Um. Apparently, 154 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: her nineteen eleven marriage to Reginald Ruggles Gates was annulled 155 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: unconsummated in nineteen fourteen, but we found another article from 156 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: the BBC that says that Reginald did not contest the annulment, 157 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: but he did push back in court against stops as 158 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 1: claims that he was impotent. He called her quote super 159 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: sex to a degree that was almost pathological, and saying, quote, 160 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: I could have satisfied the desires of any normal woman 161 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: by the time we had done with four play, I'm exhausted. 162 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, Reginald. It's kind of kind of sounds 163 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: like what a guy would say if he can't keep 164 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: his lighty satisfied. It's like a normal woman who only 165 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: wants to have sex once a year would be very 166 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: happy with the Marie also apparently had an affair with 167 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: a Japanese man in nineteen oh seven, So anyway, she 168 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: may have known a lot about sex when she wrote 169 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: this manual, but most importantly, she was a very renowned scientist. 170 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: She was globally known. She was a birth control pioneer, 171 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: so a lot of people read her work. So when 172 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: Stops put out an article in nineteen thirty one called 173 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: quite Whole Interlocking, where she claimed to have seen with 174 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: her own eyes forty eight examples of the cervix opening 175 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: wide and quote closing round the glands, penis as a 176 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: result of the stress of sexual excitation. Um. Probably a 177 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: lot of people believed her. How could you see that? 178 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm wondering the same thing. Excuse me, 179 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: could you just move your penis slightly to the left, 180 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: hair inside that vagina. I've got to peer down and 181 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: look at the cervics as it's chomping up all the 182 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: fruits and eating ghosts. Also, the field of fertility was 183 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: kind of just getting started around this time, and the 184 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: going knowledge among physicians was that if you failed to 185 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: interlock the dick with the cervix, that's what kept you 186 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: from getting pregnant. So Dickinson was like, please let me 187 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: please show y'all that this is incorrect. So she's saying 188 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: it's like docking a spaceship, like you've got somebody up 189 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: there on Apollo sixty nine saying we're making the approach, 190 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: we were about to insert and make contact and luck 191 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: with the cervics. Stand by procervic opening, four degrees, lateral rotation, 192 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: ful thrusters, sexy stuff. It's really good, really sexy sic stuff. Yeah, 193 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: and then you get this locking. Mary Roach says that 194 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: a copy of Stokess article was found among Dickinson's papers 195 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: with like exclamation marks all over it, like as he 196 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: was reading it, he was furious by everything. He was 197 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: just emojiing the whole thing. Unfortunately, for fertility, Dickinson's research 198 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: proved that head on penis to cervix contact and spoiler 199 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: alert is actually pretty rare, so they could turn their 200 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: attention to other causes of infertility. But otherwise we were 201 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: still in cylindrical vagina territory, right, Okay, so everybody's still 202 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: seeing the whale throat exactly. Everyone's used about what shape 203 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: is going on in there. Well, in nineteen seventy four, 204 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 1: the m r I, or the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Machine 205 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: was introduced with an image of a student's finger. Somebody 206 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: was like, I gotta see what's going on in there. 207 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: I get it. Fingers are cool. So a full body 208 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: scanner became the number one priority, and that was completed 209 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: only three years later. This machine enabled scientists and doctors 210 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: to see inside your body without cutting you open, which 211 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: is revolutionary stuff that left those poor cadavers just feeling gutted. 212 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: Get it, because they weren't. I bet all the living 213 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 1: people were like, I approved, yes, And this brings us 214 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: back to the guy from our beginning of our episode, 215 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: Peck van andel In. Peck is a Dutch physiologist and 216 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: one day while he was in his lab, he was 217 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: looking at this cross sectional m R I of the 218 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: professional singer's mouth and throat while she sang inside one 219 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: of the m R I tubes. And this made him 220 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: think of Leonardo da Vinci's coition figures, and he started 221 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: to wonder if it was possible to quote take such 222 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: an image of human coitus. Such a scientist's way of wondering, 223 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: that I do love that throat made him think of 224 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: he was sitting he was watching Pinocchio, and he was 225 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: like M Vagina's you know, I think of one thing 226 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: every time I watched Pinocchio. I got one thing on 227 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: my mind. So Peck decided to team up with a 228 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: gynecologist and a radiologist and he picked up the phone 229 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: to call his friend, anthropologist Ida Sabellis. He told her 230 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: he wanted to create a piece of body art using 231 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: an m R I to make an image of the 232 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: female reproductive tracked during coitus. And you know, would maybe 233 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: her and her boyfriend be willing to be the subjects 234 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: of his artwork and that's an awkward phone call. I 235 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: mean us the weather. What do you plan on doing 236 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: this Christmas? Cool? Cool? Cool quick question? Um, do you 237 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: guys want to fucking side to make magnet for me? 238 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: But it's it's not it's nothing weird. It's weird for 239 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: art for arts, for art. How many artists have said that? 240 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: I know? Right? And if anybody wants to come have 241 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: sex on our podcast for art, give us a call. Um. 242 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: Vice writes that Pack kept stressing to Ida how no 243 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: one had ever used the m R I to see 244 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: this process before. He just kept repeating quote, it's never 245 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: been done never. They kept wondering if they could do it, 246 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: never wondered if they should do it. I'd have told 247 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: Vice that she was definitely at least skeptical. This is 248 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: a really weird call to get I don't know where 249 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: from your best friend's partner. But she's also like a 250 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: passionate scientist as well, and she had spent her youth 251 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: campaigning for women's rights, so she was very intrigued as well. 252 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: She's probably thinking to herself image me, like what are 253 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: your French girls? Jack? She also was like, you know, 254 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: Peck has a medical research degree. He co invented an 255 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: artificial cornea, so he's got some cred and he also 256 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: had access to an m R I machine helpful, and, 257 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: as Vice writes, quote the academic gravitas to ensure the 258 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: project wouldn't become porn very important. So she and her 259 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: boyfriend Jup had a long talk and they finally agreed 260 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: to take part. But before we jump into the lab, 261 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: let's just take a quick break and we will be 262 00:16:52,480 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: right back the welcome back everyone. So i'd and Jup 263 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: joined Peck and his partners in a city called Groningen, 264 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: where they'd be doing the experiment at the local hospital there. 265 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: Ida describes device that she was just, you know, making 266 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: small talk with the scientists when she got a little 267 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: like exasperated. She said, quote, I realized I was the 268 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: only woman in the room. That was like, of course, 269 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: I'm the only woman in a study about women's bodies. 270 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: Classic science problem. Um. But this also got her moving, 271 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: you know. She clapped her hand on her boyfriend Juke's back, 272 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: and she said, quote, so shall we get on with 273 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: it then? So Juke ran off to p real quick. 274 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: The scientists took out the retractable metal tray in the machine, 275 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: and when Juke got back, he and Ida got undressed 276 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: and they climbed in naked. Now, a traditional MRI machine 277 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: has an opening about sixty inches in a diameter, so 278 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 1: it's pretty cramped in there. Anybody has ever got an 279 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 1: m R I. I've had a couple, and yet it 280 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: never had one. It's tight, it's a little plastic to 281 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: you gotta slide into. Some people have serious claustrophobia. Yeah, 282 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: they start talking about wide yeah, mr yeah, because people 283 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: do get so uncomfortable. Right. I'd a talked Peck out 284 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: of doing it missionary style because she said, quote, it 285 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: is a position for me that produces hardly any arousal anyway, 286 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: Jupe would have been too heavy in that tiny tube. 287 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: Logistical issues of missionary So they wriggled in this tiny 288 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: little hole, asked to groin in a spooning position. It's funny, 289 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 1: this cylindrical tube they had to climb into makes me 290 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: think of a vagina. They're like, we're gonna find out 291 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: today if the vagina is shaped exactly like this, it's 292 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: kind of like one of those those Russian dolls, you know, 293 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: smaller one inside of and then we'll have a whale 294 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: swallow this m r I machine. Oh my god, we 295 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 1: have ultimate vagina. Ultimate vagina. Well, they're in the machine. 296 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: They're asked to growing kind of spooning. And then the 297 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: three researchers went into the operator's booth. The intercom crackle 298 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: Dawn and Ida and Jupe heard can you hear us? 299 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: And Ida response yes, ready, when you are. I wonder 300 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: if Jupe was like, how about I say when we're ready? 301 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 1: Because Jupe was really worried that he wouldn't be able 302 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: to get an erection under these circumstances. This is not 303 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: a very comfortable, sexy place to be doing the sight, 304 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: but he did manage it. Good for you, dube Ida 305 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 1: told Vice, quote, it became pleasantly warm in the tube, 306 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: and we truly succeeded in enjoying each other in a 307 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 1: familiar way. Now, there are some things to know about 308 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: an m r I machine, so we can really put 309 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: ourselves here in this story. Um, so let's take a 310 00:19:55,320 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: speed date with science searching for connection. M r I 311 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: machines work by creating a strong magnetic field, which makes 312 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 1: the abundant hydrogen protons in our bodies aligne as Box writes, 313 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: quote like a needle in a compass. Metal coils inside 314 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: the machine generate a specific frequency of radio waves that 315 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: momentarily alters the behavior and orientation of these protons, and 316 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: Fox continues, quote, When that radio signal is shut off, 317 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: the hydrogen protons realign with the magnetic field, and in 318 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: doing so, amid radio waves that communicate their position in 319 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: the body and the type of tissue in which they reside. Okay, 320 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna keep saying, okay, as if it sounds 321 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: like I know what you're talking about, you following me. Well, 322 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,360 Speaker 1: basically they're mapping the protons by hitting them with with 323 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 1: this magnetization, and then the radio waves come back and 324 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: they've basically given them a picture of where everything is 325 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: in the body. And fortunately radio waves are not harmful 326 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: the way X ray you know, X rays and seat 327 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: he scans can be had um And those metal coils 328 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: vibrate when the electric current is turned on and off, 329 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 1: and that makes an m r I machine insanely loud. 330 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: Vice describes it, quote, It's like a box full of 331 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: charged hula hoops jumping around and clanging together, making it 332 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: probably the loudest piece of medical equipment in existence. And 333 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: on top of all that the m R I machine 334 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: that Jip and Ida were using was actually an older 335 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: model that required the subjects to lie perfectly still for 336 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: a full minute in order to capture an image. Oh 337 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: my god, we lie still for a full minute in 338 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: the middle of sex. Sex is over. I've lost interest sleep, 339 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: it's late, it's been a long day passing out. So 340 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: picture it from Elizabeth, that ridiculous crime. Just picture it. 341 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 1: Picture Jupe and Ida are doing it in this tiny, 342 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: insanely loud, plastic tube with three grown men watching everything 343 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: they do from behind a glass window. And sometimes they 344 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: just have to stop, with Jup inside her trying to 345 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: maintain his erection for a full minute and wait when 346 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: the intercom would say things like, quote, the erection is 347 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 1: fully visible, including the route pulled that pose. You know, 348 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: they laughed a lot route, but they managed it. They 349 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: did it after forty five minutes. As Ida describes it, quote, 350 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: the microphone is telling us that we may come insofar 351 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: as possible, and that we only have to inform them 352 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: in connection to the photo. We burst out in a 353 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: roar of laughter, and some moments later we do what 354 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: is the purpose my favorite description of sex. Do what 355 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: is the purpose. I love it, and also that they 356 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: were like, okay, feel free to come if you can, 357 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: but let us know so we can take a photo. 358 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: But when I just saw the images, which I assume 359 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: it's like when you get off Splash Mountain and you 360 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: go they've got the four screens up there and they're 361 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: showing everybody your pictures. Do you want to eight by 362 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: ten a couple of wallet sizes? I bet she did 363 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: take a by ten home. She saw these, and she 364 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: was so happy, she told Vice quote. It was like, oh, 365 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: that's how we fit together. They were beautiful. I could 366 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: see my womb and then there was jupe in a 367 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: place that I knew from my own sensation. Just below 368 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: the cervix. There was very clear features of both our insides, 369 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: including the boundary between both our bellies. It showed so 370 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,360 Speaker 1: much detail it made me speechless. That is cute though, 371 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: to be like, oh, like like you know, it's not 372 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: pornographic or something. To her, she's like, look at how 373 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: well this works. It makes sense, it feels good, and 374 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: it looks good. I guess. I mean if you see 375 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: like I've seen um, like I've had kidney stones a 376 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: couple of times and I've had I've had some ultrasounds 377 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: on my kids, and you sit there and I feel, 378 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: you know, the joke obviously is like, oh is it 379 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: a boy or girl? You know kind of thing. But 380 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: you sit there and you're watching your own organs doing 381 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 1: their thing, and there's something really fascinating about it. Yeah, 382 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 1: you're like, oh man, that thing's keeping me going. Good 383 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 1: for you? Were you like, oh cute, that's how it 384 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: fits in there? Yeah, so cute. But the detail that 385 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: most interested Peck van Andel in these scans was, as 386 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: Vice rites quote, JIP's penis had been forced into a 387 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: curved boomerang shape from inside JIP's own body. It assumed 388 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: an angle of about a hundred and twenty degrees, which 389 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: was something Leonardo da Vinci had never drawn, And at 390 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: that moment Peck knew they had achieved something more significant 391 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: than an arts project. They'd rewritten around five hundred years 392 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: of anatomical assumptions. Take that, da Vinci, Pretty amazing. That's 393 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 1: crazy boomerang shaped. Yeah, I guess it. Can you throw 394 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: it and it keeps coming back to you? Makes it 395 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 1: makes sense to me clearly for Ida Juke Dick is 396 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: always coming back. I mean they could do it for 397 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: forty five minutes inside a plastic machine with three people 398 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: watching them. I'm impressed, say their sex life is pretty good. 399 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: Pretty good. Boomerang my dick right back there too. It's like, 400 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: give me an hour and we can go again. So 401 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: Peck is all excited about this. Peck and his team 402 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: immediately right up their findings. They credited Ida as co 403 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: author sense and they sent them off to the science 404 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: journal Nature, who refused to publish it. Unfortunately, many many 405 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: examples through history of sex science getting running straight into 406 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: the wall of prudishness, general prudishness, and they have a 407 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: really hard time getting published. So Peck thought, you know, 408 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: I'll build up my research. We'll get more subjects. Um. 409 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: He also got permission to use a different hospital all 410 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: that had a newer m R I machine. It only 411 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: required a twelve second pause in the action rather than 412 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: a minute, so he's like, surely will be more successful 413 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: with this. But then Dutch tabloids heard about this and 414 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: they started running fake stories about the project. Mary Roach 415 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: says that they were quoting patients with life threatening conditions 416 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: who claimed they were having to wait for their m 417 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: R eyes because creepy sex researchers were tying up the machine. 418 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 1: Come on, this was total bullshit, Peck says. They always 419 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 1: used the machine after hours, so nobody was ever you know, 420 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: there's nobody going to use it anyway at that time. 421 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: But even so, the hospital rescinded their permission because it's 422 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: just too much backlash. They were like, we don't want 423 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: to be involved. Peck told Vice quote, it was completely disappointing. 424 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: We found an unexplored area of research, and no one 425 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: wanted to let us finish the work because they were 426 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: afraid of how it would look on their resumes. Probably 427 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: a bunch of jealous virgins too, who didn't want to 428 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: want to admit that they didn't know how sex works. 429 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: They were like, the more people can explain it, the 430 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: harder it's going to be for me to lie about 431 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: all the sex I'm having. Listen, if it's not a cylinder, 432 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on in there. I've been 433 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 1: telling all my buddies down at the bar after work 434 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 1: every day. Oh yeah, I was in all kinds of 435 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: straight cylinders. The other night. It was like a pac 436 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: man grabbing my dick from the end on the inside. 437 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: Felt amazing. You guys will love it all the other 438 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: side just oh yeah in the cylinder, you know, it's 439 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: just like Pinocchio. Yeah, always thought so. Uh So Peck 440 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: decided he was not going to give up. He spent 441 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: months lobbying the Groningen Hospital management to get back to 442 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: their hospital because they had upgraded their m R I 443 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: machines so they wouldn't have to use their old one 444 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 1: minute wonder, you know, turn all the guys into one 445 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: minute one U. The head of the women's medicine and 446 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: the head of radiology both finally said yes on the 447 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: condition that Peck keep the project a secret and didn't 448 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: publish anything. They're like, we don't want those virgins finding out. 449 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 1: They'll they'll be terrible. So Peck told Vice that he 450 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: said yes, figuring that he would quote crossed the hurdle 451 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: on publication once he got to that point, I'll figure 452 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: out how to lie. But then another problem presented itself. 453 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,919 Speaker 1: None of Peck's subsequent subjects could maintain their erections in 454 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: that tiny loudass tube. Jupe was really special. That project 455 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: was effectively shelved until when Bia Grow was released. Peck 456 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: got his hot little hands on the Boner pill and 457 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: resumed research, finally got his wider study. But literally they 458 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: called it a godsend, Yeah, a lot of Yeah. In all, 459 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: Vice writes, quote, eight couples and three single women had 460 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: sex in the hospital's m r I a total of 461 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: thirteen times. Which did the single women have sex with 462 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: other people? Or I actually don't know. I'm assuming that 463 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: they maybe used a tool because he really wanted to 464 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: see the female reproductive tracks, So maybe it didn't matter 465 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: if it was a fan's dick. You know, it's just 466 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 1: like a dildo or something. We put a little camera 467 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:34,239 Speaker 1: inside this jack rabbit. We're gonna go in. Um. I 468 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 1: did wonder if I was like when I first read it, 469 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: I was like with each other or like, were they 470 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: just in their alone masturbating and they were like, we 471 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: just want to see what it's like, what goes on 472 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: when there's no dick in there? Maybe too, like we 473 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: want to see what an orgasm looks like without the penetration. 474 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: What happens when we leave three single women inside an 475 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: m r I machine together? Oh, do we have a 476 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: new reality show about to get started? Well, After eight 477 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: years and three failed submissions, the British Medical Journal finally 478 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: published the team's paper Magnetic resonance Imaging of male and 479 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: female genitals during coitus and Female Sexual Arousal, and it 480 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: was published on Christmas Eve of the Sexiest Night Christmas. 481 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: So what did Peck discover in all this research besides 482 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: boomerang shaped dick? Right, well, let's take a quick break 483 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: and we'll find out right after this. Welcome back to 484 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: the show, everybody, Okay, So Peck was able to prove 485 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: not only that dicks don't usually slide into the cervix um, 486 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: but that they do have to conform to the female shape. 487 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: They don't just go straight in and out like Leo thought. 488 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: But a couple of other things were uncovered as well. Firstly, 489 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: the effect of sex on a woman's bladder. Even though 490 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: all of the women had you is the bathroom before 491 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: getting busy in the m r I, every single one 492 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: of them had a full bladder by the end. It 493 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: was super super consistent. But to this day, scientists aren't 494 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: really sure why. Peck told Vice quote, we think it 495 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: might be evolutions way to force women to urinate after sex. 496 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: Perhaps our ancestors developed this function to avoid urinary tract infections. 497 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: But that's only a hypothesis. I wonder if they considered, um, 498 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: the very interesting fact that woman's bladder is full every 499 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes anyway, Um, and you constantly have to be 500 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: all the time, never stops. Not all ladies are built 501 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: like me. Okay, I'm built different again, I'm just built different. 502 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: But not only that. Mary Roach writes that quote. Before 503 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: these m R I s. Few had realized how much 504 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: of the penis lies hidden below the surface of the skin. 505 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: The root is nearly two thirds again the length of 506 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 1: the pendulous part. So she continues, quote, if your erection is, 507 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: say six inches long, go ahead and say it's ten. 508 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 1: I'll back you up. Oh thanks, Mary, damn it, Mary, 509 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: you're out here ruining tender date's all over the world. Hey, 510 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: according to Mary Roach, I'm a foot and a half log. 511 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: It goes all the way up to my brain. You 512 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: can't see the root, but I tell you it's there now. 513 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: Mary Roach herself was part of a similar experiment around 514 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: two thousand eight in writing her book The Curious Coupling 515 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: of Sex and Science. Y'all scientists have got to get 516 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: sex here with your book titles. By the way, sorry, 517 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: but these are always so just like, oh wow, you 518 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: made the science of sex sounds so exciting. Honestly, this 519 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: is so funny to me because it's like the way 520 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: acade the academic world and the regular world don't quite mix. Um. 521 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: I've seen so many people be like, why are every 522 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: sex therapist or sexologist or sex researcher is always like 523 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: kind of an old lady who nobody would want to suck. Yeah, 524 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: people said about like Dr Ruth and stuff like people 525 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,959 Speaker 1: are always talking shit. I don't think that myself. I'm 526 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: just saying the stereotype. But you know, if you if 527 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: you're looking at what Peck is saying, they had to 528 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: wrap it in the most academic, dry, boring ship in 529 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: order to get it published, whereas regular people who need 530 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: to read it don't want to read that. I'm like, 531 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: where's the citizens Medical Journal Where I'm like, no, I 532 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: don't tell me the sexy part, freaky make a freaky Yes, 533 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: tell me the freaky dicky ship. Let Nicki minaj retranslate 534 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: here or Nicky Glazer. I feel like we know a 535 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: lot more agreed. A creed is so dry, but I 536 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: guess that makes sense if you had to do it. Yeah, 537 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: I bet Dr Ruth gut busy back in the day. 538 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: You know she did. That's how they know. I don't know. 539 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna do another I've uncovered so many 540 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: fun sex researcher stories, um that we're going to do 541 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: another episode later on about them, and you'll see they 542 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: they often had to use themselves as the subject. So yeah, 543 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: I got some experiments. I need to run myself actually, 544 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: so get ready. So as I was saying, Mary Roach 545 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: was part of a similar experiment in two thousand and eight, 546 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: and in writing her book The Curious Coupling of Sex 547 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: and Science, she learned about a scientist named Jing Deng 548 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: who was a senior lecturer in medical physics at University 549 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: College London. And this guy has been able to capture 550 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:49,280 Speaker 1: for the ultrasound footage of anatomical structures like beating hearts 551 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: and an erecting penis. The point of imaging genitals is 552 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: to help diagnose and treat issues like Payrone's disease, which 553 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: can cause painful and crooked erections. But Dang wants to 554 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: go further, and he wants to capture ultrasound imaging of 555 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: real time human intercourse because, aside from the fact that 556 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 1: it just sounds cool to him. Uh. He thinks it 557 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: could be useful to diagnose and figure out the cause 558 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: of things like disparunia or painful intercourse with clear images 559 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: of what's going on in there. He hypothesizes, you know, 560 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: maybe we can figure out why intercourse is painful and 561 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: maybe even fix it. Although I worry for Dr Dang 562 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: here saying, I don't know. Every time I have sex, 563 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: women say it's painful, but we just can't figure out 564 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: the cause. Oh lord, poor ductr Dang, Doctor Dang, you 565 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: ever asked them? Nope, there's no reason, there's no answer. 566 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: No one can figure it out. It's a total medical mystery. 567 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure other people. Yes, it's a serious problem. So Mary, 568 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: reading this, she reached out to Dang and asked if 569 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: she could witness his first scan as research for her 570 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: book and to her supper eyes. Dang responded and said 571 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,359 Speaker 1: he'd be happy to let her watch if she could 572 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,399 Speaker 1: just find him some participants for her to watch. So 573 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: Mary had a conversation with her husband and they decided 574 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: to volunteer themselves. And I like Ida and Juke. They 575 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: lay spooning asked to groin, She writes, quote on the wall, 576 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: someone has hung a painting of a hillside harbor town, 577 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: as though by looking at it we could convince ourselves 578 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: that we were on the Amalfi coast, or just as 579 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: good that Dang was try and imagine me far awaywhere 580 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: not in the room with you. He gave Mary's husband 581 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: Ed a Maxim magazine to get him going. He was like, 582 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: this is very erotic, and Mary was like, I guess 583 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: the side of his wife in a freaking medical gown. 584 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: It's not a sexy thing. I don't know. And then 585 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: they joked with the doctor about like where's the candles 586 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,720 Speaker 1: and the soft music and all the sexy curtains or whatever, 587 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: and he seemed like kind of comically disappointed that he 588 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: could not provide I did to them. Then she writes, quote, 589 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: he brightens, I can turn on my laptop. I have 590 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 1: the soundtrack to lay Miss. Oh yeah. Nothing gets me 591 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: going like the proletariat who is getting busy to the 592 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 1: sastrack play Miss, please write it immediately, Romance Amail Well, 593 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: Mary and Ed got themselves into position, and Dang took 594 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 1: the still images first, holding the ultrasound wand up to 595 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: Mary's belly. She wrote quote, we must hold still for 596 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: several seconds, like victorians posing for a de Guerat type. 597 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: Dr Dang instructs Ed to quote, please make some sort 598 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: of movement in and out. Oh, thank you for the instruction. 599 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: But at one point he has to reboot the ultrasound. 600 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: Mary writes, quote, fortunately it only takes a few seconds, 601 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: sparing Ed the necessity of also rebooting. Everybody has such 602 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 1: fun ways of not saying hard penis, She continues, quote, 603 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,439 Speaker 1: Ed keeps up an idle, disaffected rhythm. He and Dang 604 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: chat about their children. I'm taking notes or half of 605 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: me is. I feel like a secretary and a rivaled 606 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 1: French comedy. And then she goes on and writes this 607 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: conversation that Ed and the doctor are having. She says, Oh, 608 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: you look so young to have a fifteen year old? 609 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: How old are you? Oh, I'm in August and the 610 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: little one? How old you could ejaculate? Now? How uncomfortable? Brutal? 611 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 1: Also can you ejaculate under that? I mean, like, how 612 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: do you have an orgasm? I'll tell you this I 613 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: don't want to find out. Okay, fair enough, all right? 614 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: He realizes, like Mri, I sex for our marriage is 615 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: off the table. Well, how much does it pay? Uh? 616 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: Mary goes on to say that, however useful, these ultrasound 617 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 1: images maybe quote, they bore no more relation to sex 618 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 1: than a smile held for a camera. Us to the 619 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: real thing. Ultrasound movies are a superficial rendering of the 620 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: complex and varied body mind belt that we call sex. 621 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: That's very interesting. Like you can't not it can't not 622 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: be staged, right, yeah, like this is still a performative 623 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 1: version of sex. Yeah. Well, and she's like, I mean again, 624 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: he's keeping up a disaffected rhythm. He's barreling here. You know, 625 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm barely here. It's a total mechanics. You have to 626 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 1: invent a bed that is also an m r I 627 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: that you know, you just use every night, and you 628 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: just have to normalize it, right, and there's no pausing 629 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: and no intercom. It just has to take a full 630 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 1: recording and then they go they scrub through it later. 631 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: That's that's the future. Then you can really get or 632 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 1: maybe they need to bring in some candles and lament 633 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: playing lamit. Heck, why have you thought about that? Well, 634 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: what I thought was interesting was that Ita said something 635 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: kind of simil or to Mary Roach. Now ed Mary 636 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 1: Roach's husband a lot like Peck van Andel's subjects had 637 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: to use viagra to get through this little experiment um 638 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 1: and Ida takes it as a point of pride that 639 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: she and Jupe are like the only couple to manage 640 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: without viagra. They were like the only people to do 641 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: this without needing that bone or pill. Okay Ida takes 642 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 1: it as a point of pride. I mean, you know 643 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: the way to go, Ida, I feel like that's more 644 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: Juke's accomplishments. But that's just me. It is funny. Ida 645 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 1: is Um is a co author of this paper. Jupe 646 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 1: is not Um. I don't know if that's just because 647 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,839 Speaker 1: he's not a scientists. He was like, I'm good, I'm 648 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 1: all right, Um, But it's still it's the number one 649 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:49,720 Speaker 1: thing that she cited for in other papers. So anyway, 650 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 1: one of Peck's team kind of theorized that Ida and 651 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: Jup were able to do this experiment without viagra because 652 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: they had a background in performance as amateur street acrobats. 653 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: So he's like, first of all, you're used to performance anxiety, 654 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 1: and second of all, you can like bend your bodies 655 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: and unusual case, and that makes you able to like 656 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: perform in this tiny tube and stuff. Like that you 657 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: have the stamina and the flexibility to actually through with 658 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 1: this sext for real. Maybe that's why Peck chose her, 659 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: Maybe that's why he called her. He's like, she's a scientist, 660 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: she's also an acrobat, and she's in a loving relationship 661 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: currently whose has all three of mr Sex. But Ida 662 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: doesn't mention her acrobatic background at all. For her, it 663 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: comes down to something a little harder for science to measure. Harder, 664 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: she told Vice. Quote for me, the experiment was also 665 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: a testimony to mine and JIP's happiness. I think that's 666 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: something the paper missed, how connected a couple must be 667 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 1: to perform under those kinds of conditions. So, as Mary concludes, quote, 668 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 1: sex is far more than the sum of its moving parts. 669 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 1: Interesting and I found that really cool that both those 670 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 1: women had a very similar reaction to it. Scientifically, this 671 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,760 Speaker 1: is very interesting. But I can't say that that sex 672 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: had anything to do with sex. In my mind, when 673 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: I think of having sex, that's not It looks nothing 674 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 1: like that, it feels nothing like that, And I wonder 675 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 1: I kind of wish that they had asked Jupe or 676 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: any of the men involved how they felt, you know, 677 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:36,280 Speaker 1: emotionally about that sex first, is the physicality of it? Yeah, yeah, definitely, 678 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: because I know it's much more a question and female 679 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: sexual arousal the emotion and the your mind set and stuff. 680 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they never asked men. It's like, just get 681 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 1: the blood down there and you're good to go. Uh yeah. 682 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,839 Speaker 1: And in fact, I I'd even pushed back a little 683 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: bit against Ida's statement there. I don't I don't know 684 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,439 Speaker 1: if she's really saying this, But in terms of their 685 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: ability to perform, you know, without any medical assistance, is 686 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: not a testimony to their happiness, because surely plenty of 687 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: couples are you know, very happy together but still could 688 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: use some assistance in the m R I machine while 689 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: they're trying to have sex, you know, like right or 690 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,799 Speaker 1: even just in their in their own bedrooms. Like it's 691 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: not really reflective of of the quality of your relationship, 692 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 1: but you know, it's good for them. I think that's true. 693 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: But I do that She was like, you know, it 694 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: wasn't about anything like that. We just we're able to 695 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,879 Speaker 1: put it aside. You know, we had we had enough 696 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 1: feeling between us that we're able to like kind of 697 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: ignore that. She's being modest they're super human freaks, is 698 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 1: really what it comes down to. Minutes with full minute 699 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: long pauses throughout three dudes watching you and commenting the 700 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: whole time with scientific terminology, like the root is exposed, like, no, 701 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: they're not normal, and she still came yeah, and she's 702 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: just like, well, it just comes down to the fact 703 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: that we're just you know, we have a really strong romance. 704 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, now, no, it's more than that. Oh, that's 705 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: outrageous speculation. Station. I just got a boy your thing. 706 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: She wants real to watch it, like that's the longest 707 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: they've ever lasted. Oh ship, yeah, Juvenida. Both they're like, finally, 708 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: let's not tell them, but we've been waiting for someone 709 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 1: to ask us to have sex in front of them. 710 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: They start volunteering for all kinds of weird sexperiments. Just 711 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: do it upside down? Yeah, what a sex look like underwater? 712 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: We'll do it. We'll do what we're acrobats. Fascinating. This 713 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: is such a cool story. I I really it was 714 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: really interesting to learn more about just the mechanics and 715 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 1: how little we understood about I was very surprised to 716 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 1: hear that people thought of vagina was shipped like a 717 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: cylinder were you I was. I don't know why you 718 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: knew that wasn't the case. I don't. I don't know 719 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 1: that I knew it, But I don't think that's what 720 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: I would have drawn for you. Yeah, you know, it's 721 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 1: interesting sometimes we see a lot of these like uh, 722 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 1: and they're funny videos, but people be like I went 723 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: out on the street and asked men if they know 724 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 1: how cervical contraction or some crazy ship works, and they 725 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 1: have the stupidest answers, and I'm like, I I don't 726 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: feel like I need to know that. Personally, I don't 727 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: know things about my own body and I'll make it 728 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: through my whole life just fine without knowing those extreme details. Obviously, 729 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't then decide to legislate those body parts. And 730 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 1: I know that's where a big part of that comes from. 731 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 1: But also like the idea of like mocking people for 732 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: not having a robust education in the specific details, like 733 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, why would I know the shape of 734 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 1: a vaginal canal? But I mean, I'm just saying as 735 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: opposed to. But I'm just saying as opposed to like, 736 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 1: you know, they thought for hundreds of years, right, I mean, 737 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,280 Speaker 1: what you know, that is a good point. Even gynecologists 738 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,320 Speaker 1: thought it was still shaped and that you went straight 739 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: in and out. You know, they just didn't. I guess 740 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 1: the real story is how long it takes for anyone 741 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,280 Speaker 1: to give a funk about how it works for women, 742 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 1: you know, and a lot of sex scientists science is 743 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:21,359 Speaker 1: about like, oh, I guess we'll finally see what an 744 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,359 Speaker 1: orgasm is for ladies, Like what is loud? I just 745 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: finally kind of. I think we just saw headlines like 746 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 1: a month ago where science was like, you know what, 747 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 1: we don't know shit about the clitter is. We really 748 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: don't know anything. We know nothing. I guess we should 749 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: start looking at it. Y'all think more than half of 750 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: the world has one. And they took like one look 751 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: in like day two, they were like, holy shit, it's 752 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 1: so different. We thought it was huge. Yeah, that it 753 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: didn't take you very long, not at all. You could 754 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: just look. Why didn't anyone think to look at this 755 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: before be interested? I don't know, um, but yeah, that 756 00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 1: that sort of was kind of the interesting thing to 757 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 1: me is that literally, you know, we had a drawing 758 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,840 Speaker 1: from five hundred years ago that everyone was like, yeah, sure, 759 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: why why look into it. Why I check this guy's work. 760 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,880 Speaker 1: He's Leonardo da Vinci. You know why not? It was 761 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 1: five dred years ago. We've learned a lot of things 762 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: since then. Everything's fine. Women are clearly fine. There's no 763 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 1: reason to look any further, fully satisfied, all the women 764 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 1: of the world having no medical issues related to this 765 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:31,719 Speaker 1: lack of knowledge. Fascinating. Um, But yeah, I think that's 766 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 1: really cool that there are people brave enough to do that. 767 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,240 Speaker 1: I can have sex and m R Machine with anybody watching. 768 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 1: Maybe there's no way. So I'm very glad that I don't. 769 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,479 Speaker 1: I didn't you found found their four yearism deep within 770 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 1: or whatever one to your point about mocking people, I 771 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 1: was thinking about this the other day because the internet 772 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 1: is so mean. As you know, if someone doesn't know 773 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 1: something or they say something kind of ill advised, people 774 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: will share it and be like, look that this dumbass, 775 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 1: you know, And sometimes you find out that the person 776 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 1: that is talking is maybe really young or something like 777 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: they just don't know. You feel like they're like a 778 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 1: sixty seven year old man saying some ship. And I 779 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 1: kind of thought to myself, like, I do wish that 780 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:14,799 Speaker 1: we would sort of decide that learning is a fun thing, 781 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,800 Speaker 1: like in teaching people is fun. And if someone is 782 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:21,320 Speaker 1: like has a question or is confused about something, instead 783 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: of being like, well, this fucking moron, Like instead of 784 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,320 Speaker 1: being like, oh, I have a chance to tell you something, 785 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 1: I know this, I actually know this, and I can 786 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: tell you the answer. You know, it's way more I 787 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 1: don't know, pleasant experience for everyone involved. Um And I 788 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,240 Speaker 1: do it too. So I was kind of telling myself. 789 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,439 Speaker 1: I was like trying to remember that learning is fun. 790 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,319 Speaker 1: Teaching can be fact fact. Like if you were to 791 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,799 Speaker 1: go out on the street and ask women what they 792 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: thought of cervix looked like, or to point one out, 793 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 1: I bet a lot of women couldn't do it either. 794 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we also don't get a lot 795 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:56,479 Speaker 1: of information about our reproductive system. Um. And in doing 796 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,879 Speaker 1: this research, they were saying the cylinder thing really mad 797 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: because on like tampon boxes, they still show tampon go 798 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,799 Speaker 1: straight in and out. There's it's a cylinder like it's 799 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,840 Speaker 1: just goes straight in. There's no question about how it works. 800 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 1: So it is like there there are probably plenty of 801 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 1: women and girls who grow up thinking, yeah, it's just 802 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: I guess it's a cylinder and the dick goes straight 803 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 1: in and out. I hadn't thought about it, really, but 804 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 1: if I thought about it, I guess sure, why not. 805 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:29,800 Speaker 1: In fact, it's like a corkscrew. Whoa Jeremy Barony, Jeremy 806 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: a woman's reproductive tract. It's like a Jeremy Barrey. Yeah, yeah, 807 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 1: the time nice, we've all seen it. Well, I hope 808 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 1: you'll learned something about vaginas today.
