Violent video games make women feel sexier
[SYDNEY, AUS] — A recent study conducted at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Australia has established a link between the reasons people choose to playing violent video games and their sexual desires.
Test subjects were asked to give themselves a “mate value,” rating their potential as a romantic and sexual partner.
Both females and males who played more violent video games were more interested in sex. There was no connection between the perceived “mate value” and the number of violent video games played by males, however, “women who played violent video games more thought of themselves as a better catch than those who played them less.”
Northwestern University censors essay on nurse sex
[EVANSTON, USA] — An essay titled “Head Nurses,” published in Atrium, a bioethics magazine edited by Northwestern faculty members, sparked controversy that led to the temporary removal of the online edition, and the potential termination of the publication.
The essay, written by Syracuse University professor William Peace, talked about receiving oral sex from a nurse while he was hospitalized due to a spinal cord injury.
“I did not think that it would cause such a giant controversy, that it would take down the entire issue for 14 months and maybe the magazine permanently,” commented Peace.
