Science Tuesday

Alfred Kinsey's research in the 1940s and '50s found that the male of the species reaches his sexual peak around the age of 18.

More recent research seems to indicate that it's around 24.

Maybe more interesting is the fact that the age at which boys have their first self-stimulated ejaculation is happening earlier, i.e., coming sooner!

Whatever the facts, it's a reason to celebrate the fun of being a guy, as my buddy at Big Whack Attack illustrates effectively in so many varieties: https://bigwhackattack.blogspot.com/

Out for a bit of illness . . .

Harry & Draco

 

Some of the cable networks have been showing the Harry Potter series recently. There's a lot of "shipping" going around, too . . .

Leonardo da Vinci & Salai

 

Leonardo da Vinci

A New Documentary from Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon

A 15th century polymath of soaring imagination and profound intellect, Leonardo da Vinci created some of the most revered works of art of all time, but his artistic endeavors often seemed peripheral to his pursuits in science and engineering. Through his paintings and thousands of pages of drawings and writings, Leonardo da Vinci explores one of humankind’s most curious and innovative minds.

 

Leonardo da Vinci, a two part, four hour series, is now streaming on PBS and the PBS app.

Gian Giacomo Caprotti da Oreno entered Leonard's studio at the age of ten, where he proved more a hellion than a disciple, but with the nickname of Salai stayed with Leonardo thereafter, lending his image to a number of Leonardo's visual works. 

Angel Incarnate, an erotic drawing of a young boy with an erection, is believed to have been modeled by Salai.

I'm pretending it's Ross Lynch as a brunette in "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina."
