Thermal imaging proves women get aroused as fast as menTechnology removes barrier between the sexesBy Nigel Hummingbirdfart: Tuesday 03 October 2006, 16:41Click here to find out more!It has long been known that a bloke can get turned on as quickly as it takes to put down a beer glass, or wake up in the morning. However, there was a long standing belief that women only got aroused slowly and this created a division between the sexes that could never be resolved. Now a boffin using thermal imaging technology has managed to prove that this entire premise is pants and there is no difference between men and women at all. Irv Binik, psychology professor and founder and director of the Sex and Couple Therapy Service of Royal Victoria Hospital, which is part of the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) switched on a thermographic camera that detects radiation emitted by objects based on their temperature. Thermographic cameras are usually known as night vision goggles, so Binik must have been quite brave if he went around wearing them and asking people if he could watch their genitals while they were aroused. Science, it seems, favours the brave. Using a video of the Best of Mr Bean and a Canadian tourism video to provide control data, the subjects were then shown porn through glasses that made it impossible to turn away. The upshot was that men and women both took 30 seconds to become aroused. Men were fully turned on in 664 seconds and women 743 seconds. The difference between them is apparently is not worth bothering about. So all that romantic stuff, and putting up shelves, that blokes were told they had to go while their partners warmed up was all a myth, which is a female moth.
