was walkin' through the aile of rows of bookshelves in kinokuniya when I spot a rather eye-catching book title
it says , " Why do men have nipples ? " by Mark Leyner
actually walked pass it the first time
then i paused for a moment
and backtrack to the desired destination
i quickly scanned the book
and found some questions which I personally wonder sometimes
here are some
Is it really bad to crack ur knuckles?
Cracking ur knuckles is not as bad as people think. The usual argument is that knuckle popping causes arthritis. This does NOT happen. Chronic knuckle may cause other type of damage , including stretching of the surrounding ligaments and a decrease in grip strength , but not arthritis.
With this answer , comes another question , so what causes the pop?
The sound is produced in the joint when bubbles burst in the synovial fluid surrounding the joint. Interesting huh ?
Can you lose a contact lens in the back of your head?
It is common for people to come to the emeergecy room because they can't find their contact lens. Sometimes it is found folded and tucked beneath the eyelid , but other time it is nowhere to be found. So where is it??? Probably at the bathroom door. A little anatomy lesson : there is nowhere for it to go. Other commonly "misplaced" items that lead people to the ER : tampons , condoms , and car keys.
Do oysters really make u horny?
Oyters definitely do resemble a certain anatomical part , but this doesn't make them stimulants. Oysters are full of many vitamins and minerals , especially zinc. Zinc controls progesterone levels , which have possible effect on the libido. Other food ad products that are thought to get your mojo working include: chocolate , strawberries , champagne , etc.
Is it true that u can break ur penis?
It pains us to say this , but this is true. There is no bone in ur "bone" , but u can rupture the penis , which is called a penile fracture. Sudden trauma or bending of the penis in an erect state can break the thick fibrous coat surrounding the corpora cavernosum tissue that produces an erection. This happens most frequently during sex. Don't expect to get a cast and crutches though. This injury is an emergency and requires surgery to prevent sexual dysfunction. Ouch!
Can u catch disease from a toilet seat?
telephone : 3,894 germs per square centimetre
keyboard : 511 germs per square centimetre
computer mouse : 260 germs per square centimetre
toilet seat : priceless
Do men need sex more than women?
Men are often tld that they have sex on the brain , and it appears to be true. In one recent study in Nature Neuroscience , a team of researchers had 28 men and women look at erotic photos while an MRI took scans of their brain. The subjects looked at arousing photos of heterosexual couples engaged in sexual activity , sexually attractive nudes of opposite sex , and at pictures of men and women in nonsexual situations. When analyzing the MRI results, researchers found that 2 areas of the brain, the amygdala and the hypothalamus , were more activated in men than in women when viewing sexual stimuli. So , do men have sex on the brain? Of course , and do bears shit in the woods? We didn't really need a team of researches to find the answer to this one.
As the answer for " Why men have nipples " ,
it was kinda scientific answer
and pretty long one too ...
