Human beings have long since departed from instinct for many behaviors and have more complex emotions, such as sex.
This thing, which still makes people blush and heartbeat today, is inseparable from the efforts of scientists.
So, what are the amazing experiments that these scientists have done to study sexuality?
Different from the subtle and introverted traditional Asian concepts, it seems that the West is very open in this matter, but in fact, in the 20s of the last century, people's views on sex were also unbearable and ashamed to mention.
During World War I, the United States also carried out propaganda among soldiers in this regard, with the aim of preventing and controlling AIDS.
However, it aroused the dissatisfaction of the famous American psychologist Henry Watson at the time, who believed that sex was as human instinct as eating and drinking.
It's a normal need and shouldn't be labeled.
So, in order to change the common perception at the time, Henry Watson prepared to document the relevant research.
However, he actually found a female assistant who was nearly 20 years younger than him when he was married.
Halfway through the experiment, he was discovered by his wife.
The enraged wife not only burned Henry Watson's experimental data and related records, but also sued for divorce.
The incident also caused an uproar in the scientific community.
Although Henry Watson tried his best to argue that his actions were for scientific research, the fact of the infidelity was in front of him.
This psychologist still could not escape the fate of being ruined, and disappeared into the vast sea of people.
It also sounded the alarm bell for subsequent related research.
Henry Watson used research to satisfy his own selfish desires.
Shameful and hateful!
During the Renaissance, the artist and scientist Leonardo da Vinci created a series of drawings and notes detailing the anatomy of the human body.
Through the dissection of cadavers, he gained a deep understanding of the structure of the human body and produced a large number of anatomical drawings.
The drawings contain detailed depictions of bones, muscles, internal organs, blood vessels, and the nervous system.
One of the most famous anatomical drawings is the Vitruvian Man, a drawing depicting the proportions of the human body and exemplifying Leonardo da Vinci's study of the aesthetics and geometry of the human body.
In this image, a man** with his hands and feet stretched out, both inside a square and a circle, symbolizes the harmonious proportions of the human form and the universe.
Leonardo da Vinci's study of the human body was not only revolutionary in art, but also had a profound impact on later anatomy and medicine.
His works illustrate the complexity and functional beauty of the human body, and lay the foundation for later research.
For example, in the 80s of the 20th century, scientists at the University Hospital of Groningen in the Netherlands, Willy Brod Weigema Schulz and Peck Van Andel were inspired to use MRI technology to ** the mysterious changes in the bodies of men and women during sex.
Whether it is consistent with what da Vinci described in the anatomical drawing.
Such an idea is bold even today, let alone relatively conservative at the time.
As a result, they encountered obstacles in their initial search for volunteers, and people avoided them.
In the end, it was through the promise of high remuneration that eight volunteer couples were found and signed a strict confidentiality agreement.
The experiment continued.
However, although the process was difficult, the results were gratifying.
Through MRI technology, the changes in the male and female bodies during sexual intercourse were successfully observed.
Amazingly, Dafen. The straight form depicted by Qi in the painting is not correct.
The male organ is actually an unexpected "boomerang-like arrow-like" form throughout the process, while the female organ has certain special changes in order to adapt to the needs of the environment, such as a certain degree of expansion and enlargement.
These experimental results provide new insights into the study of anatomy and physiology.
In the middle of the 20th century, William Howell Masters, an American doctor, conducted an experiment called the "Sexual Behavior Duplicator".
In the course of his long work, he noticed that the behavior itself seemed to have an effect on the body, especially the heart.
Wanting to delve deeper into the relationship between the two, he recruited more than 300 volunteers to observe their behavior and record special changes in their bodies.
In order to obtain more accurate data, Masters also deliberately invented a headgear device to record changes in the body and monitor heartbeat and breathing in real time.
However, due to the imperfection of the device, some volunteers experienced physical and psychological discomfort during the experiment, which led to the termination of the experiment.
Subsequently, under the premise of confidentiality and contract signing between multiple parties, the experiment was allowed to continue and the device was improved.
Eventually, after more than 10,000 experiments and recordings, Masters discovered that breathing and heartbeat during the behavior were inseparable from the behavior itself.
Masters recruits volunteers for the experiment.
However, at the time, this method of experimentation and observation caused a lot of controversy, arguing that it violated personal privacy and turned the behavioral process into the object of scientific experiments.
Despite the controversy, Masters did not waver in the slightest, and he continued his research despite the world's eyes, incorporating experimental data.
In 1966, he wrote the famous book "Human Sexual Response", which became a must-read for later generations.
It has made an indelible contribution and a major breakthrough to unveil the mystery of human nature!
Masters eventually published his research in a book.
In fact, the most famous scientific study of human sexuality was carried out by Alfred Kinsey, who published "Male Sexuality" in 1948 and "Female Sexuality" in 1953.
Often referred to as the Kinsey Report, these two books had a huge impact on the scientific understanding of sexuality, although the methods and conclusions were controversial at the time and after.
The Kinsey report is a large-scale survey and individual experiment to collect data in an attempt to understand human sexual patterns.
The whole process involves not only the opposite sex, but even the same sex.
Marks a turning point in the study of sexuality, transforming sexuality from a subject of primarily moral and legal discussion to one that can be studied with the scientific method.
At that time, it set off a monstrous wave, but Kinsey's too in-depth research also made him fall into criticism and life difficulties for a while.
Before the publication of "Women's Sexuality", sponsors were forced to withdraw due to social pressure.
Kinsey wanted to give up more than once.
Later, a woman found him and told the story of falling in love with the same sex.
It provided valuable information for Kinsey's research to complete the book "Women's Sexuality".
Let the whole experiment be completed!
Later, Kinsey's legendary life was also made into a documentary, and the film was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe after its release.
Conclusion: Scientists have done a lot of experiments over the years in order to study human sexuality, in addition to the above, such as the 1928 American medical scientist Ernst Boas on the relationship between sexuality and sudden death.
Discovery of the G-spot in females.
Wait!It is precisely because of these seemingly bizarre and controversial experiments that the mystery of sex is lifted step by step.
Let us now take it in stride and approach this act with the right eyes and aspects.
