I was just sitting in the canteen reading a book which had a chapter about how humans may have evolved and about brain size and how much the brain consumes to keep going etc etc. Just then a lady in high heels clicked past my table and, naturally, my brain made me glance up and then my brain got to thinking, no doubt consuming a lot of glucose while it did so...
Porn is the most popular thing ever, right? It's what the web was invented for, it's what people like to relax with after a busy day at work, before a busy day at work and, if at all possible, during a busy day at work. You'd never have any trouble getting people to watch porn. Especially teenagers, as they don't even have the busy day at work aspect to worry about.
So, a bit like that site that had newsreaders stripping off as they read the news, what could possibly be more obvious than having teachers strip off as they teach you things? Even better, have a couple explaining the biology of the human body while they shag each other.
Teachers are always stuck for a bit of cash, so they'd be up for it, I'm sure. Other professions that are poorly paid include nursing and firefighting - coincidentally the most porn friendly of all the professions. What could get the fire safety message across more clearly than a fireman going round a house pointing out possible hazards whilst simultaneously removing his uniform, and perhaps shagging the owner of the house at the end.
Similar for police burglary prevention officers, and nurses explaining basic first aid.
This has been done before of course. In the 70s we were taught about germs by being shown a film of a naked woman in a shower with cartoon germs sliding down her breasts and flying off the end of the nipples. I think we were anyway, I might have dreamt that one.
Regardless, this is a sadly untapped educational resource. It's all very well droning on about grammar schools and city academies, but we're talking about the future here, we're talking about low attention spans and a need to educate people later on in life.
Plumbers and window cleaners could probably sign up too now I think about it.
What does everyone think then? What would you like to see included in a masturbucation course?
(And Ringo, give it a couple of pages before you point out why this would never work will you?)

At least half of your problem is going to be that children of the net age - the descendants of The Goatse Generation, as ben called us - are going to be completely numb to the erotic possibilities of simple nudity due to their over-exposure to hardcore imagery. Back in the Victorian age, the glimpse of a woman's wrist or ankle would be enough to grab men's attention. Nowadays you'd have to have a glitzy stage show featuring two nine year old girls inserting a donkey's severed head into their own mother's vagina, before you got even a flicker of response. The level of spectacle necessary to grab these kids' attention would eclipse any lesson you were hoping to deliver.

If that's the case, it's a shame that she failed so dismally. She only managed to squeeze half a leg in before the other lady did a bit of a wee-wee, made a noise like the call of an angry hippo and then decided to stop. I suppose the director was aiming to emphasise the futility of the pursuit.

You'd need a line-up of gents with different sized heads in ascending order. Starting with the smallest, insertion of the heads would be attempted (one at a time, lol ! ! 1). When the limit is reached, the largest head inserted could be measured by means of a tape measure or similar device.

I just remembered this other video I saw where a really short bloke was entirely inside a woman's mimsy. I think he got stuck at one point, as this guy in a chef's outfit had to help get him out. When he eventually made it out, there was blood everywhere and it looked like a right mess. He just laid there, naked and knackered. I think he was having second thoughts about going up there in the first place - he was screaming this really high pitched scream. And after all that, he didn't even get an erection.
I didn't really understand the fascination of this hardcore fetish stuff, so I went back to the cheerleader pron after that.

Another Bleak classic quote right there.
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
I can’t remember if it was while I was doing Art at GCSE or A-Level, but we saw our share of nakedness then. We did the convention naked fat shaved man sitting on a stool, but there was one really bizarre morning we spent chasing a naked woman around the gym hall. This may sound ridiculous, and it really was, but basically it was a half day thing where we did life drawing with charcoal, but rather than have the woman just pose some place while we carefully sketched her lines, we had to chase her around, paper in hand, and every now and then she would stop and strike a pose for 30 seconds or so, during which time we had to make a sketch of her as quickly as possible in that pose, before moving onto the next. I think the idea was to familiarise us with the human form in terms of scale and perspective, but also not to stick too rigidly to the concept of form, focusing instead on capturing the motion of the body as well as its shape. We didn’t literally spend the whole morning doing this, of course, it was mixed in with various other activities which were designed to get us thinking a little bit outside the box, trying to paint what music sounds like, that kind of thing, but it’s a memory which has stuck with me for a long time. Mostly because it was one of the most gratifying deposits which was ever made in the wank bank, but also because it made me think about the motivation behind it. Like, what it is that makes someone want to do that as a profession, being a nude model. Presumably she had a regular job and was just paid to do this every now and then. But being naked is a very personal and intimate thing. It’s when we’re naked that we’re most vulnerable, and I can’t think of anything I’d like to do less than stand naked in a gym hall full of sniggering teenagers. But she seemed completely comfortable with it, even running round like and idiot. I think I was kind of impressed really, more than anything.
I’m not sure what exactly Dang is suggesting. Is it simply that teachers get naked while giving lessons, to give teenagers some titillation, or are you suggesting in cases like the above where a naked person would actually aid the learning process? If the latter then the above example does prove that it does take place, albeit not quite to the extent dang is suggesting. But if the former, then it’s a stupid idea really. For a start most of my teachers were either dried up old women, or fat men. The only teachers who had bodies even remotely worth looking at were the PE teachers, and even then, how is it going to aid your concentration by having a teacher there naked? I don’t know if you can remember far back enough to remember the horrendous hormonal journey you go through as a teenager, but let me refresh your memory: When you’re a teenage lad you get a boner approximately 3 times a minute. You get a hardon from the vibrations on the bus. You pitch a tent if you notice that you can see the outline of Linda Harrison’s bra through her blouse. You get a huge trouser-angry every time you casually remember the moment when, while staying at your mate’s house, his sister came out of the bathroom without realising you were standing there, just wrapping the towel round herself and you see everything. Pretty much the only thing a teenage lad ever thinks about is sex. Sex, sex more sex, and an extra helping of sex. He can’t help it, it’s hormonal. But to put a fully grown naked woman in front of a classroom full of pubescent boys, and then expect them to be able to concentrate on anything other than the rapidly diminishing structural integrity of their undercrackers is absolutely ridiculous.

No, no, I'm talking about video. Like [NSFW] Naked News (which used to be free but it looks like you have to sign up now). Like that, but instead of the babes reading the news they'd be teaching things like long division and human biology.
I don't know where those ladies come from, but they seem to read the news at least as well as any traditional newsreader I've seen. I don't think you'd need to use genuine teachers, just have a good script and I bet they could get the message across, and who would mind rewinding to go over it again?
Posted by Ringo (Member # 47) on :
But... why?
Why would having a massive boner help you concentrate? I just don't understand what it's meant to achieve, Dang.
Is this the expression of something you've been repressing since childhood? It's ok to fancy your teacher, Dang, don't worry about it. I had a Maths teacher who had boobs literally bigger than her head, a skinny little waist and round curvy hips. I wanked myself into a frenzy thinking about her. It's ok to do that. You don't have to bottle it all up, it just does you no good at all. You need to come to terms with this.

Did you not read my original post at all? The point is that all that time watching porn is currently completely wasted. With my concept, people would be watching porn but they would be educating themselves at the same time. It's like when some folk listen to audiobooks when they're driving.
You'd be watching a couple of people going at it, but they'd be explaining what was happening, what the physical processes were, what might happen over the next few months. Or they could ask each other questions about Geography or History while they were doing it. I'm sure they don't like saying, "Ooh, aah, yeah, uuh" all the time anyway. If it was an orgy then they could be in teams.

That is to say, the porn itself is merely a facilitator of the wank. If you remove the wank, you remove the whole purpose of the porno. People don't watch porn because it's interesting or entertaining. They watch it because it helps them get off. If you're sat in a classroom with a rager that you're not allowed to touch, the frustration would be unbearable. It would only be a matter of time before a teacher is held to the floor by her students, and drenched in a wave of teenager spaff

Returning to the original idea, which is, of course, pleasantly bonkers, I was wondering about other spheres of public life, such as politicians. Would we have any more respect for these lying toads if they did their job in the buff, or as porn stars, or something.
Are there any sexy politicans? I can think of a couple, in Spain, but nobody here will be interested in them. That said, it was interesting that when the new Socialist government was formed in 2004, with absolute gender parity in the cabinet, the eight women (all markedly 'feminist') decided to celebrate by doing a high-glam haute-couture photoshoot and front cover for Vogue, draped on the steps of La Moncloa, dripping with baubles and clothed in extravagant evening gowns.
Not porn, exactly, but they all looked lovely.

It'd be good to go out with one, though, if only for a year. Sit in restaurants opposite her, and check out how many people eyed her up. Go on holiday to Spain and sit by the pool with your 20 year old stripper slut sunning herself in a bikini while you sit with a lager on your belly and grin and jerk your eyebrows knowingly at everyone who walked past. That would be pretty cool. Dress her up in lingerie. Then at the end of it all, dump her and watch her cry, worry about why that gives you a boner. It would be good.

So instead of eerie abandoned beds and perhaps some nice social commentry on The War from a soft-voiced Edinburgher you'd have had a reception and maybe a couple of bored and cold looking students to look at. So I didn't bother. Go up the Waverly Tower and Arthur's Seat. Nice views.
I went to Edinburgh with a boy once. We stayed in an appallingly chintzy B&B and I discovered that night that he had a bendy knob.

I picked Forest because I found all the Chelsea fans that I grew up near to be racist ultra-violents with no soul. I didn't even realise that Derby and Forest had a rivalry, as I was quite new to all that football malarkey, and so was quite shocked when the train from Nottingham to Burton stopped at Derby after my first visit to the City Ground, and I got off to get some beer from the station kiosk and was met with angry men in white football tops uttering the phrase 'you've got to be fucking kidding me!' a lot.
I don't like Forest very much, anymore, it's just painful and they are all too fat and bad at football to enjoy watching.

Thanks guys. I know this isn't the place for spilling one's guts but, well, believe it or not I consider people here to be friends, so indulge me.
I've had a shocking couple of weeks. The twins were found to be suffering from twin to twin transfusion syndrome which basically means one is sucking the life out of the other through the placenta. We had an emergency consultation at UCL last week and were pretty much told there was only one chance as it was so far advanced: laser treatment. There's only man in the world who does it and he was doing the procedure that night on a woman from Vienna. He agreed to do add another patient to his list and we were whisked down to Kings for the longest day of my life - culminating in the laser surgery at around midnight. Essentially they laser the individual veins in the placenta that are connecting the twins. It was insane to watch (alongside about thirty be-suited professors who had come to watch this guy in action - he's basically revered like Jesus in his profession) and terrifying. As they fired away with the laser, a perfect hi-def image of a baby's foot passed the screen ("Don't laser his feet, the baby don't like it if you shoot his feet with a laser"). It's one thing to see them on ultrasound, something else when you get a crystal clear image of your child playing the hot shoe shuffle with a medical tie-fighter pilot. The operation was a success and we were then told they now had separate placenta. The big one had a good chance of surviving but the smaller one would probably be dead within 24 hours. There was a slim chance he could make it but not much hope. Come back in a week for a scan. There's nothing we can do in the mean time. We'll know next week. So we clung on in there and pretended the little one might make it, while secretly fortifying ourselves against the reality that within seven days we would face the agonizing see-saw emotions that would stem from an ultrasound image of one baby kicking around merrily in the swimming pool roominess of his oversized sack while the corpse of his baby brother floated lifelessly alongside him in a shrink-wrapped tomb. We would have to count our blessings, we silently reasoned, for what we did have. If, God willing, Biggie was born healthy, it would be painful beyond anything we'd experienced to see his still-born sibling born either just before or just after him, but at least we would have the joy of one baby.
We had the scan yesterday and, against all the odds, they're both alive and thriving. The little one has grown considerably over the last week and is nearly the same size as his brother. The doctors were surprised and we are, as you can imagine, pretty chuffed.
I'm sorry if this is a self-indulgent pile of shite that is of no interest to anyone here but I wanted to explain following my earlier post.

I remember thinking this when I saw some edition of Neighbours From Hell and this dude got stabbed in the brain during a fight with his neighbour. He survived and said he was 'incredibly lucky', although his hands shook all the time and he was kind of wobbly. So it's... you know. Quite unlucky, really, if you take the default as 'going through your life without getting stabbed in the brain, ever'. I don't know. If it makes them feel blessed, then so be it.
Anyway, I'm very glad Jonesy's story had a happy ending; the middle made me feel incredibly queasy. Also, it looks like you've got a heads-up on the evil twin thing ben was talking about a month or so ago.
