In the Details survey, 44 percent of women and 7 percent of men said they do not mas- turbate. The most common fre- quency of masturbation for women was a few times a month, while 3 times a week was for men. Our numbers were too small to draw any real conclu- sion, but about three quarters of males said once a day. The female numbers had a wider range: about a quarter said two to three times a week; 15 percent said once every three months. Female answers tended to be more vague: ’ ‘whenever needed,’’ ‘‘’a:lot,‘’’ /’fre- quently,’’ ‘‘every so often’’. Oral and anal Only a single sexually active male reported not having had oral sex. Of sexually active women, 90 percent said they’ve given or received head. Anal sex was deceptively common: one quarter of men and women said they’ve tried it. Ow. Bicurious 22 percent of heterosexual men and 21 percent of women said they have had thoughts of custom. In the 60’s, 95 per- cent of American boys were circumcised. In 1986, only 60 percent were. There has been mounting evidence that not circumcising may lead to uri- nary tract infections. The American Academy of Paediat- rics has gone on record as saying that circumcision has ‘‘potential medical benefits and advantages.’’ A male typically ejaculates 3 to 5 cubic centimetres of semen, though factors like amount of sexual stimulation and time since last ejacula- tion have an effect.

The volume and distance of ejaculation is said to reflect the pleasure of the orgasm. During particularly intense orgasms, 40 percent of women reported that a liquid is expelled from their urethras, much like male ejaculation. The phenomenon has not yet been explained. Evidence suggests that 70 percent of adult movies are signed out by women. They often rent an X-rated film to watch with their husband after the children have watched their PG film and gone to bed.

Twenty years later, Playboy appeared, a combination of sexual infor- mation, titillating fiction, nude photographs of women and advice on male attire. The trend was taken up by women’s magazines like Cosmopolitan and Playgirl, which began printing photos of nude men and erotic fiction aimed at women. More hardcore magazines appeared in the 1960s, includ- ing Penthouse, Hustler and Qui. In 1968, Screw was a huge commercial success, triggering a tasteful host of imitations like Smut, Ball, Stud, Hot Stuff and Sex.
