Penis takes shape of boomerang during sex

WebPosted Thu Dec 16 12:49:31 1999 ET / CBC Newsworld  
**LONDON** –Medical researchers have determined that during sexual intercourse, in what is called the male-on-top “missionary position,” the penis forms the shape of a boomerang.

Previous hypotheses were that during this form of intercourse the penis remained straight, or formed the shape of an “S”.

The research was conducted by scientists in the Netherlands. The results have been published in the British Medical Journal.

Professor Willibrord Weijmar Schultz, who was in charge of the research, told Reuters, “These results are very important for all sexologists.” He said results of the research could be useful in determining the chances of conception during intercourse.

Researchers used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to examine couples engaged in intercourse. The study used eight couples and three single women in the experiment to examine male and female anatomy during intercourse and masturbation.

The MRI scanner used in the experiments had to be enlarged to accommodate two people. The experiments took place over a period of seven years.

It just makes me so proud every time I read about one of my fellow countrymen contributing to yet another major step forward in Modern Science.

## And no, I wasn’t part of the testing population. My penis takes on the shape of a Heineken bottle during sex.

Seven years? No way. Maybe 15 seconds.

I can’t decide which smart-ass remark to go with here, so I’ll just offer both.

1. Coldfire, when your lover said, “stick your penis in my heinie” I think you misunderstood.

2. Coldfire, you may be on to something. It’s often been said, “If we could only bottle it we’d really have something.”

The single women were the control group. They used actual boomerangs.

Boomerang! the Australian word for a bent penis…

Do men from the Netherlands tend to have unusually limber dicks, or is this a bizarre version of european yoga were talkin’ about here? It would be interesting to learn what angle are these “members’” being bent at, all I can think of is ouch!
