There was report on this evening’s All Things Considered about teen sexual behavior and its ramifications for the spread of STDs. Very serious topic, right? The giggle-factor is there, but as a mature adult I should probably be able to listen to them talking about blowjobs on NPR without untoward mirth.
But the name of one of the researchers is Dr. Manlove.
It was a “driveway moment” for me; I sat in the car listening to the story, and sniggering like a twelve-year-old.
[Have a listen.](http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4849466) Count then number of times Allison Aubrey says “Manlove.”

“Good afternoon Dr Manlove.”
“Oh please, Allison, call me Knobgobbler!”

_snerk_ 😃
A friend of mine used to work for a sex therapist in Illinois whose name was Dick Proctor. This name is somewhat amusing just pronounced straight, but it gets better if you turn it into a Spoonerism.

Was the therapist an MD or PhD? Doctor Dick Proctor?

'Fraid not. He was a psychiatric social worker. It’s not easy to make anything naughty out of that. I tried, though.

I have on a professional basis encountered a man named Dick Wunderlich (pronounced Wonder-Lick). Let’s leave it at that.
