Microchip To Make Sex Fiends, Nerds Out of All of Us

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Are you one of those people who doesn't derive any pleasure from sex and/or eating?

Oxford University is all set to provide eyesight to your romantic blindness...

The chip works by sending tiny shocks from implanted electrodes in the brain.

The technology has been used in the United States to treat Parkinson's disease.

But in recent months scientists have been focusing on the area of the brain just behind the eyes known as the orbitofrontal cortex - this is associated with feelings of pleasure derived from eating and sex.

It turns out, a scientist implanted a microchip in the brain of a woman who doesn't enjoy sex and made a wild, insatiable beast of her.

A research survey conducted by Morten Kringelbach, senior fellow at Oxford University's department of psychiatry, found the orbitofrontal cortex could be a "new stimulation target" to help people suffering from anhedonia, an inability to experience pleasure from such activities. His findings are reported in the Nature Reviews Neuroscience journal. 

There you have it, ladies, soon penis size won't matter, because you'll be pre-programmed to enjoy any stimulation whatsoever. Welcome to Stepford....

I'll take one. In fact, I'll take nine. Oh wait, unless it acts like giving ADHD people speed, thereby slowing down someone with, shall we say, hyperhedonia...
