Can you optimize an orgasm?
After Melissa, a 35-year-old event planner living in Chicago, masturbates, she sometimes studies a chart that resembles the output of a heart rate monitor or that of a seismograph capturing an earthquake.
The data is generated by her vibrator, the Lioness, which measures her arousal and uploads information about her orgasm patterns to the company’s app. The sensors embedded in the toy track her pelvic floor movements. With each involuntary squeeze and release of her pelvic floor muscles, the app displays a graph showing her rhythmic pattern in a series of peaks and valleys. She typically uses it in tandem with her other clitoral stimulating vibrators, so that she can compare the orgasms she experiences with each one.
“I use it just as a data collection dildo, essentially,” said Melissa, who asked to be identified only by her first name because of privacy concerns. Besides the Lioness, she doesn’t own any wearable activity trackers, like the popular Apple Watch or Fitbit, but she says she likes “to have quantifiable information when I’m learning things.”
@bachophile I wonder if she has tried a banana.

A single sperm has 37.5MB of DNA information in it. That means a normal ejaculation represents a data transfer of 1,587.5TB
That's a lot of information to swallow.

Lots of redundancy in the data, though. Once compressed, probably only a very small fraction of that 1,587.5TB will remain unique.

Lucas once told/asked us “What’s the difference between a park bench and an adult black man? The park bench can support a family…”
Now the same kid is VP of the Diversity and Equity Club at College. Where did I go wrong?

Your kid is a VP of a DEI club at school?
