“And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors: after that miracles: then the graces of healings, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors? Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way. “

4. Oral sex is common among teens.

Many U.S. teens have oral sex before they have vaginal sex. And they don't view it as very risky, says Bonnie Halpern-Felsher, PhD, a pediatrics professor at the University of California, San Francisco.

Compared with vaginal sex, "They really don't consider it as big of a deal," Halpern-Felsher tells WebMD. Past surveys Halpern-Felsher conducted showed that most teens thought that engaging in oral sex would not put them at risk for social, emotional, or health problems. Other surveys she has performed showed teens who said they only had oral sex were less likely than those who had vaginal sex or vaginal and oral sex to report STDs.

Still, there were STDs among all three groups of sexually active teens. Just under 2% of teens who said they'd only had oral sex said they caught an STI, compared with about 5% of those who had vaginal sex only, and 13% of those who had vaginal and oral sex.

The oral sex-only teens were also less likely than other sexually active teens to report getting into trouble with parents, experiencing negative feelings, or having a worsening relationship with a partner because of their sexual activity.

But there was a gender gap in how teens felt about oral sex.

Males were more likely than females to claim social and emotional benefits. Females were more likely to report feeling used or guilty, or that oral sex had hurt a relationship.

In another survey, 425 ninth-graders from the same group were asked open-ended questions about why they thought that people their age would have oral sex.

The idea that it's less risky than vaginal sex was their No. 5 reason. Here are their top four reasons : 1) seeking pleasure, 2) improving relationships, 3) gaining popularity, and 4) curiosity.

That list differed between males and females. Pleasure was the No. 1 reason cited by males; females said their main motivation was to improve a relationship.

3. Unprotected oral sex is common, but has risks.

Several sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including HIV, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, HPV, and viral hepatitis can be passed on through oral sex.

"Oral sex is not safe sex," says Terri Warren, RN, owner of Westover Heights Clinic in Portland, Ore., a private clinic specializing in STDs. "It's safer sex, but it's definitely not safe sex."

The risks depend on a lot of different things, including how many sexual partners you have, your gender, and what particular oral sex acts you engage in.

Using barrier protection can reduce the risk of getting an STD. A barrier can be a condom covering the penis, or a plastic or latex "dental dam" placed over the vulva or anus. Instead of a prepackaged dental dam, a condom cut open to make a sheet is also an acceptable barrier.

But most people don't use protection for oral sex. That's common wisdom, and it's also shown by large-scale surveys of sexually active teens and adults. 

That's probably because many people don't know that STDs can be spread orally. Or if they do, they don't see the health risks as being very serious, Warren says.

The risks of getting an STD from unprotected oral sex are typically much lower than the risks posed by having unprotected vaginal or anal sex, Warren says.

Warren's advice about using barrier protection for oral sex depends on whom she's talking to. Typically, performing oral sex on a male partner without a condom is riskier than other forms of oral sex, she says.

For example, Warren says she might stress the importance of condom use for a man having oral sex with multiple male partners.

"If a male is giving oral sex to a woman, I consider that to be a low-risk exposure," Warren says. But if a woman's regular partner has oral herpes, "that's a whole different discussion," she says.

2. Oral sex enhances some adult relationships, strains others.

Among adults, oral sex causes stress for some couples and enhances intimacy for others, says sex therapist Louanne Cole Weston, PhD, of Fair Oaks, Calif. She says stress about oral sex often has to do with one partner's concerns about hygiene.

"One person will not want to receive it because he or she worries about the partner's reaction," Weston says.

Some people may also be anxious about their performance -- doing it well enough to please a partner -- or about responding appropriately to receiving it. "Some people can't just let go and receive," Weston says.

Sexual power dynamics may be part of it, too.

"Some people resist doing it because they feel a bit subjugated," Weston says. Her advice for those people: "They have a very important body part between their teeth; and after all, who is in charge in a position like that?"

Other people, Weston says, experience oral sex as a "relationship strengthener" and "a very intimate connection" shared with a partner. "It's being able to look at the partner and see them going into really very personal space," Weston says.

Health and Food / 4 Things You Didn't Know About Oral Sex
February 29, 2012, 12:52:59 PM
1. Oral sex is linked to throat cancer.

Cancer? Yes, you can get throat cancer from oral sex, says American Cancer Society Chief Medical Officer Otis Brawley, MD.

It's not oral sex, per se, that causes cancer, but the human papillomavirus (HPV), which can be passed from person to person during sex, including oral sex.

Researchers have found that some cancers of the oropharynx (the middle of the throat) and tonsils are probably caused by a certain type of human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is common, but it doesn't always cause cancer. If you aren't exposed to HPV during oral sex, you're not at risk for cancer.

Brawley says that hints of a link between HPV and oropharyngeal cancer came in the late 1980s and early '90s. Researchers noticed an increase in this kind of cancer among people who hadn't been very prone to it before.

It began to affect increasing numbers of people around the age of 40 that didn't smoke or drink, whereas in prior decades these cancers were usually found in older people that smoked cigarettes and heavily drank hard liquor. 

In the early 2000s, scientists were able to use advanced DNA testing to find HPV 16 in many of these newer cancers.

Brawley determined that sexual activity must be involved.

A study published in The New England Journal of Medicine in 2007 showed a greater risk for oropharyngeal cancer in people that had had oral sex with at least six different partners. The DNA signature of HPV type 16 was often found more often in the cancers of people who had multiple oral sex partners.

It's still unclear how many people get HPV throat infections by oral sex, or how many of them get oropharyngeal cancer, Brawley reports.

Both men and women can have an HPV infection in the throat. "It doesn't discriminate by gender," Brawley says.

"The population that I thought would be least likely to get it was the first population to have this problem," he says. That population was heterosexual men aged 40-50.

Doctors know, however, that oropharyngeal cancers caused by HPV are easier to treat than those caused by factors like smoking and drinking.

Brawley says the best prevention method is still unclear, but "in terms of public awareness, this information certainly should be available to people," he says.

Expanding the use of the HPV vaccine could be one approach, but Brawley says, "I'm not sure that we have studies enough to make a blanket assertion that this is a reason to vaccinate boys for HPV." The FDA has approved the HPV vaccine Gardasil for males aged 9-26 -- but only to help prevent genital warts in those boys and young men, not as a way to curb HPV infection in their partners. The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices allows but doesn’t require boys as young as 9 to get Gardasil.

It is perfectly normal and healthy. A healthy masturbation activity for men stimulates the sertoli cells located in the testes to produce sperm. A man who is an active masturbator has more fertile sperm than say, a man who does not masturbate.

Additionally, men need to release sperm and ejaculate as it prevents over-saturation in the prostate. Men who masturbate actively can delay or prevent the formation of prostate cancer. Men who do not masturbate enough have a higher risk of prostatic tumor growth.

10. The pill is always effective immediately after you begin taking it.

In some women, one complete menstrual cycle is needed for the hormones in the pill (oral contraceptive) to work with the woman's natural hormones to prevent ovulation. Some doctors recommend using a back-up method of birth control the first month of taking the pill.

9. I won't get pregnant if I take a shower or bath right after sex, or if I urinate right after sex.

7. I won't get pregnant if my partner pulls out before he ejaculates.

Pulling out before the man ejaculates, known as the withdrawal method, is not a foolproof method for contraception. Some ejaculate (fluid that contains sperm) may be released before the man actually begins to climax. In addition, some men may not have the willpower or be able to withdraw in time.

6. You can use plastic wrap or a balloon if you don't have a condom.

Plastic wrap and balloons are not good to use as condoms. They don't fit well and can easily be torn during sex. Condoms are specifically made to provide a good fit and good protection during sex, and they are thoroughly tested for maximum effectiveness.

5. I won't get pregnant if we have sex standing up or if I am on top.

Some people believe that having sex in certain positions, such as standing up, will force the sperm out of the woman's vagina. In truth, positions during sex have nothing to do with whether or not fertilization occurs. When a man ejaculates, the sperm are deposited well into the vagina. The sperm will, by nature, begin to move up through the cervical canal immediately after ejaculation.

4. I don't need contraception because we only have sex during the "safe" time. You're only fertile one day a month.

Myths such as these most likely arise from a lack of understanding of the menstrual cycle. There are four major hormones (chemicals that stimulate or regulate the activity of cells or organs) involved in the menstrual cycle: follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estrogen, and progesterone. A delicate balance of these hormones regulates the release of an egg (ovulation), and if the egg is not fertilized, menstruation occurs. While a woman's cycle is more or less regular at most times, this balance of hormones can be disrupted by various factors, including age, stress, medications, etc. Therefore, pinpointing the time of ovulation and predicting any "safe" days can be difficult. Couples who have success with the rhythm method of contraception must carefully monitor the women's menstrual cycles and evaluate symptoms of ovulation, as well as any external factors.

3. I won't get pregnant if I douche after sex.

Douching is not an effective method of contraception. After ejaculation, the sperm enter the cervix and are out of reach of any douching solution.

2. You can't get pregnant if the woman doesn't have an orgasm.

Pregnancy occurs when a sperm from the man fertilizes an egg from the woman. While the man must ejaculate to release sperm, it is not necessary for the woman to have an orgasm to get pregnant. A woman of childbearing age usually releases an egg each month as part of her regular menstrual cycle. This occurs whether or not the woman has sex or an orgasm.

February 29, 2012, 12:40:26 PM
There are a number of birth control methods that are highly effective in preventing pregnancy. There is also a lot of misinformation about how to use contraception, as well as some methods that simply do not work.

Following are some common myths about birth control and contraception:

1. I'm breastfeeding so I can't get pregnant.

While breastfeeding tends to postpone ovulation, this is not a guarantee. Ovulation can occur even when a woman is breastfeeding. The nursing mother should use birth control if she wishes to avoid getting pregnant.

Health and Food / Is Masturbation Harmful?
February 29, 2012, 12:36:51 PM
Is Masturbation Harmful?

In general, the medical community considers masturbation to be a natural and harmless expression of sexuality for both men and women. It does not cause any physical injury or harm to the body, and can be performed in moderation throughout a person's lifetime as a part of normal sexual behavior. Some cultures and religions oppose the use of masturbation or even label it as sinful. This can lead to guilt or shame about the behavior.

Some experts suggest that masturbation can actually improve sexual health and relationships. By exploring your own body through masturbation, you can determine what is erotically pleasing to you and can share this with your partner. Some partners use mutual masturbation to discover techniques for a more satisfying sexual relationship and to add to their mutual intimacy.

Is Masturbation Normal?

While it once was regarded as a perversion and a sign of a mental problem, masturbation now is regarded as a normal, healthy sexual activity that is pleasant, fulfilling, acceptable, and safe. It is a good way to experience sexual pleasure and can be done throughout life.

Masturbation is only considered a problem when it inhibits sexual activity with a partner, is done in public, or causes significant distress to the person. It may cause distress if it is done compulsively and/or interferes with daily life and activities.
#15939
Who Masturbates?

Just about everybody. Masturbation is a very common behavior, even among people who have sexual relations with a partner. In one national study, 95% of males and 89% of females reported that they have masturbated. Masturbation is the first sexual act experienced by most males and females. In young children, masturbation is a normal part of the growing child's exploration of his or her body. Most people continue to masturbate in adulthood, and many do so throughout their lives.
#15940
What is masturbation?

Masturbation is the self-stimulation of the genitals to achieve sexual arousal and pleasure, usually to the point of orgasm (sexual climax). It is commonly done by touching, stroking, or massaging the penis or clitoris until an orgasm is achieved. Some women also use stimulation of the vagina to masturbate or use "sex toys," such as a vibrator.

The State of the World: Explaining U.S. Strategy
By George Friedman

The fall of the Soviet Union ended the European epoch, the period in which European power dominated the world. It left the United States as the only global power , something for which it was culturally and institutionally unprepared. Since the end of World War II, the United States had defined its foreign policy in terms of its confrontation with the Soviet Union. Virtually everything it did around the world in some fashion related to this confrontation. The fall of the Soviet Union simultaneously freed the United States from a dangerous confrontation and eliminated the focus of its foreign policy.

In the course of a century, the United States had gone from marginal to world power. It had waged war or Cold War from 1917 until 1991, with roughly 20 years of peace between the two wars dominated by the Great Depression and numerous interventions in Latin America. Accordingly, the 20th century was a time of conflict and crisis for the United States. It entered the century without well-developed governmental institutions for managing its foreign policy. It built its foreign policy apparatus to deal with war and the threat of war; the sudden absence of an adversary inevitably left the United States off balance.

PURPOSE:

To describe a technique combining the expertise of the oculoplastic orbital surgeon and the neurosurgeon which allows access to the posterior orbit, anterior fossa, cavernous sinus and suprasellar region with minimal brain manipulation.

METHODS:

A transorbital craniotomy through a suprabrow incision is performed removing part of the frontal bone and orbital roof as a single piece. This allows wide access with only minimal, if any, brain retraction. The superior, lateral and medial orbit is clearly visualized, as well as the apex of the orbit. The bone flap is replaced at the end of the case with Tantalum plates.


RESULTS:

A cavernous hemangioma at the orbital apex was removed without complications. The exposure was superb and allowed identification and preservation of orbital structures.


CONCLUSIONS:

Transorbital craniotomy allows for wide access to the posterior orbit and parasellar region and anterior fossa of the brain with minimal brain manipulation. The use of a suprabrow incision results in an excellent cosmetic result. There is minimal postoperative morbidity, which decreases hospitalization time.

Agree!

Sauna ang entrance fee sa Tarsier kay P20 ra, karon pag balik naho nahimo nang P50! Wa na bitaw ko sumud kay mao ra gihapon.

Suggestion sa ahong mga kauban, magdevice daw ang Bohol ug laing rates for the locals and for the foreigners. Which I found the same as in Cambodia based sa post sa Admin.

hehe kuyawa pod kai naa diayg inflation sa entrance price.

Another question:

Does Viagra make us ejaculate multiple times?

Answer: Not necessarily, viagra (sildenafil) makes your penis erect for a prolonged period, say some 3-4 hours. So you will be able to go multiple rounds with your sex partner. Your ability to ejaculate or the quantity of ejaculate depends on your epididymis and ejaculatory duct fluid. Sometimes, you may be working with your sex partner for hours without you experiencing an orgasm, while your partner being able to enjoy multiple orgasms (refractory periods).
#15992
My response:

Nitric oxide is responsible for the increase in cGMP, which facilitates smooth muscle relaxation, which leads to vasodilation and leads to an pro-erectile state.

Sildenafil (brand name: Viagra) inhibits cGMP breakdown, thus, leading to prolonged state of smooth muscle relaxation, vasodilation and thus, your penis remains erect longer.

Driving around tagbilaran requires expertise , especially considering the fact that there are so many alleyways and no established "route" as compared to say, Cebu City or Iloilo City.

Tricycle drivers in Tagbilaran City have been considered by thousands of travelers as worst in the Philippines.

They demand exorbitant fares for a very short trip.

Tricycle drivers in Tagbilaran do not exemplify the culture and character of the Boholano people.

interesting. when i was 5, it cost 2 pesos to ride the pedicab. :P
