Moderators Travis In Austin Posted December 8, 2007 Moderators Share Posted December 8, 2007 I will now open up this lecture to questions from audience Marty, I went back to the original post because I laughed so much when you originally posted on this very important topic. However, you promised a future talk on safe sex, which I never saw discussed. I am sure you were side tracked by such things as keeping the twins in tow, ensuring the bar was well stocked and other such matters. I was always to shy to ask about such matters in biology, health and gym class, and so I was hoping to see the helpfull hints you were offering on the subject in order having to ask in front of everyone. As you never followed up on that subject I guess I am forced to ask in front of the entire class: Here goes, and I would really appreciate it if you would specify in your answers whether the information is comming from you, or the twins, as I believe the subject of Safe Sex is very important: 1. What is the maximum speed one should be driving while having sex 2. What is the maximum height one should attempt the act without using a net; 3. Under what situations would you reccomend wearing a helmut, no not that kind, the kind that you strap on under your chin. Thanks in advance Professor, Travis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 Ah yes Safe Sex. I’ll get to you specific questions in a moment Travis, butfirst a little background on the historical origins of safe sex is in order. Safe Sex started like many things during the golden age ofGreece. Various philosophers observed thatsex among men and women almost invariably resulted in the production of babiesand postulated that sex between men almost completely eliminated this sideeffect. This system worked very well until one day Plato was heardto exclaim “I’ve got to get me some”. This publicly expressed carnal yearningcreated a schism of sorts among the Greeks and soon resulted in the developmentof different schools of thought such as the Sophists, the Cynics, The Liberacesand my personal favorite the Wisenheimers. Although the safe sex movement in Greece had resulted inwonderful statues glorifying the “Greek Ideal’ the various bickering of theseschools of thought fractured Grecian harmony and led to their absorption by theRomans. Now the Romans never practiced safe sex and over time thisresulted in total moral rot, the collapse of their empire and the rise of theMiddle Ages. During the Middle Ages, the preferred method of safe sex wassomething called a “chastity belt”. This device was also known as the Iron Maiden”. It did not work very well but the overalleffect of women wearing a heavy iron truss for months on end did result inunsightly broad hips and a consequent diminution of the production of babies. Then along came the Renaissance where little safe sex waspracticed until the rise of the religious movement calledCalvinandHobbsinists. They practicedsafe sex by hitting people up side of the heads with big honkin bibles. Now to the modern era of safe sex which was a directoutgrowth of the rejection of the excess of “The Flappers” during the RoaringTwenties. The scanty clothing worn by these ladies plus their tribal rights ofdancing (The Lindey Hop and the Charleston) resulted in a movement to applymodern scientific methodology such as the “I Got Rhythm” method, The Pilloryand the most successful methodology: golf. Now as to the specifics of your questions, Travis, I haveconsulted with Professor Tickles andMistress Professor Tawny and will answer your questions as postulated. 1. What is the maximum speed one should be driving while havingsex? Tickles: “Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Tawny: “Get your sorry butt over tothe passenger side and I’ll show you how fast I can make this baby go” Thebes: “A sedate 18 miles per hourshould do it 2. What is the maximum height one should attempt the act withoutusing a net? Tickles: “Trampolines, I just lovetrampolines..Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Tawny: “This is a bungee cord. This is a very tall bridge. Over we gooooooooooooo… Thebes: “No higher than the kitchen counter” 3. Under what situations would you recommend wearing ahelmet? No not that kind, the kind that you strap on under your chin. Tickles: “Well I was visiting my Uncle Armstrongup on the space station recently and I found that wearing a helmet kept my headfrom hitting the ceiling, or was it the floor? I should have put helmets on myhigh heels because one got stuck in something, which broke, and now the stationdoesn’t fly quiet right and they asked me to leave. Oh this also helps answer question #2.” Tawny: “For some reason Thebes always wears ahelmet when we are getting frisky Thebes: “In the shower or within a half mile ofTawny” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 You left out the dark ages, during which it was too dark to find anyone to have sex with, safe or otherwise, hence the stasis of population. as for soldering, drunken or otherwise, i need professional help.

thebes Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Well OT I skipped over the Dark Ages because it was to dark to find it. Sad to say but my hours preparing this lecture, and years of study to obtain a degree in history are being completly ignored by people more interested in a thread about measuring perception,. They seem to completly ignore the fact that perception and measurement are completly at odds with one another. Even the fact that it has the word "SEX" in it seems to have had no affect on participation. Perhaps we have discovered a new form of safe sex. Become an audiophile.
