Tentacle Porn

The Japanese are totally to blame for this one. Besides enjoying octopus sushi, it seems that they were having fun with the tentacles in the bedroom. It was very popular in Japan as far back as the 1800s. They say that the trend started in 1814 When the painting, "The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife" was painted by Hokusai. The painting shows a woman having sex with an octopus.

Shoes To Indicate Penis Size

We have all heard the saying, "the bigger the feet, the bigger the meat". Back in the 15th century, pointy shoes like these were extremely popular. The men would wear them in order to show off their virility because it was believed that the guys with the pointier shoes were the ones with the biggest penises. We guess that there were a lot of guys wearing shoes that were too big for their feet back in those days.

Employing Foot Ticklers

People with foot fetishes are nothing new, but back in the 18th century, they were taken to a whole new level. Foot ticklers were employed in courts and palaces.

Foot ticklers would tell dirty stories, spank, and sing dirty songs all while erotically tickling a woman's feet to get her aroused before having sex with her husband or partner.

Sex As A Part Of Religion

We have all had sex that has felt like a religious experience, but in Haiti, it is a religious rite. Those who practice voodoo in Haiti worship the goddess of love by trecking to the holy site of Saut-d’Eau each summer. They will bathe naked in the waters and some will go on to have sex in the blood of animals that they have sacrificed.

Believing Sex Is Bad For Your Health

Inis Beag is a small island off of the coast of Ireland. Anything that is remotely sexual is considered a sin. You cannot even offer physical expressions of love to your child as it is considered to be sexual. No hugs. How sad.

Children even have to change their clothes under their blankets. Married couples have to keep their underwear on at all times. And, boys learn about sex from watching animals and only get to have sex after they have entered their arranged marriage while in their 30s.

Curing Erectile Dysfunction With Autoerotic Asphyxiation

Men should be very happy that they are able to take Viagra today. In the 17th century, the only cure for erectile dysfunction was autoerotic asphyxiation. They had to choke themselves in order to climax. This treatment was discovered when men who were hung during public hangings had visible erections. But, autoerotic asphyxiation is very dangerous and can lead to death. We recommend that you stick to those little blue pills if you have issues. It is a lot safer.
