Science class...Fiction Scribe style
Being a long-time MRI Technologist and now currently working in medical research MR Imaging, I have seen and/or heard, as well as been involved in several quite fascinating brain imaging research studies. Just at where I work, there are studies which deal with depression, olfaction, smoking in the scanner (through tubes, of course; we aren’t THAT dumb to have them fire up inside the magnet), brain responses to eating/taste differences compared to preference (one I am trying to get going) – just to name a few. There are a couple of studies, however, that I have run across, that I wished to God I had been a part of (I will only present one today and save the other for later):
Men have always known you gals “Fake it” on occasion, and now we have scientific proof to prove it. Your jig is up, my fraudulent, female friends! We are finally on to your little game! No more faking it!
Here is a female brain during real, honest-to-goodness, scratch you back and howl at the moon orgasm. Notice the tiny, small area in red, located in the cerebellum. This area typically controls vital boly functions (i.e., breathing, heart rate, etc).
Here is a female brain while faking an orgasm (heathens). Notice the same area as above is activated, but now the motor cortex is hugely activated. This shows movement during "faking it" is controlled and conscious.
Basically, it requires thought and a real one doesn't.
So, as I have demonstrated, all it takes to prove the deviance of the faking female is thousands of feet of coiled wire, 3000 liters of liquid helium, a superconducting magnet, and a little gumption.
On a good note, if Steph’s mum is reading this, rest assured this can be constituted as a science lesson. Not to worry, Mum, your sweet little girl is not being corrupted online (or at the very least not by me).
And they say Science class is boring? Here is the BBC link to the article.
