Homemade Viagra! 

I don’t recommend putting a clove headband on to try to boost your sex life!  I have heard about “a girl being so ugly she has to hang a porkchop around her neck to get the dog to play with her.” but this couture garland thig is just stupid! 

Garlic has long been used as a spice and has been reported to possess medicinal and pharmacological properties. Several studies have indicated that garlic can lower blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol, but what is really exciting is what it can raise!  Indeed!  Testosterone and the body parts (ED) that need it are raised when you take Garlic.

Cameron Diaz -  raises more testosterone than Garlic

Surf babe Cameron Diaz, is a picture of health at the beach!  The sexy Charlie’s Angel loves a substantial breakfast of garlic and lemon chicken with broccolini  to give her the energy for hours of surfing.  I wonder if Garlic repels Paparazzi or Great White Sharks?  Testosterone boosts women’s bodies, and sex drive just like a man’s! 

This “guy” is several cloves short of a full bulb – “there ain’t enough Garlic in Italy to help this guy”

Garlic repels all forms of bloodsuckers actually- including Vampires, Mosquitoes, Ticks, and possibly Statists too!  Garlic’s healing powers come from the sulphorous compounds it contains (the same ones feed the bacteria in your mouth, causing bad breath and the natural insect repellant effect)!  Parsley is the best weapon against garlic breath and lonely nights.

So stock up on some parsley and mouthwash, and get to eating some garlic.  You’ll live better, look better, and have more sex!  I guess we could call Garlic – Mother Nature’s Roids!

Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS) (commonly known as “man that insensitive woman is a dude!” syndrome)

It used to be easy to tell if a boy was a boy, and a girl was a girl.  Now, it isn’t.  We all know that “looks can be deceiving” so just a general inspection of a pection doesn’t always mean anything.  So, we had to turn to chromosomal analysis -you know, the XX and the XY thing?  Boys have the Y, the girls X.   Some men think that the absence of Y is a genetic defect!  LOL!  I know the women are convinced that a Y is a genetic anomaly.  With the concerns unfair advantages relating to performance enhancing testosterones, human growth hormone, and red blood cell stimulating factors – who knew that the discussion would turn back to gender!

Now we can’t even go by the XX, XY thing!  Turns out some women have an insensitive Y! 

Is this a man or a women?   To her father, at least, 18-year-old South African running sensation Caster Semenya is simply “daddy’s little girl.”

As the Jamican sprinter set records on the track there was an overwhelming concern that she was a he.  And, critics may be right!  Caster might be XY, and she might even have testes!  But she’ll end up a “woman”, because her body never responds to the testosterone she’s producing?  Signs of AIS include hairless genitalia and the absence of menstruation. (There are reports that Semenya had “not attained puberty yet.”)  “Since testosterone helps in building muscle and strength, a case of androgen insensitivity syndrome wouldn’t give an XY-female athlete any kind of competitive advantage; if anything, it would be a liability.” (assumed- I am not so sure of that)  Seven of the eight women who tested positive for Y-chromosomal material during the 1996 Summer Games in Atlanta had some form of AIS. They were allowed to compete.  Fair?  Hmmm.

Mandatory gender testing of Olympic athletes was stopped altogether in 1999, but Olympic and IAAF rules allow for gender tests if an athlete’s gender is challenged by another athlete or team, or event officials.  I am not sure there is a reliable test these days!  Maybe we should give each athelete $100 and see what he/she buys.  If there are more than two pairs of shoes, and some lip gloss on the receipt we can rest assured this athlete sits down to pee.  If, however, there are seven beers,  chicken wings,  a tool belt and toilet paper on the receipts, he’s all male.

It does go both ways…

Rena (Rusty) Kanokogi – A Brooklyn judo champ was stripped of her first place medal when judges realized she was a woman competing in a contest against men.  She just got her medal back – 50 years later!  Women can compete as men, but men cannot compete as women apparently.  Athletes who have undergone sex-reassignment are allowed to compete alongside their new gender, provided they follow regulations… whatever that means.

I miss when time was simpler,
