Your Ancestors Had Better Sex Than You

Kevin Anthony 0:11

Céline Remy 0:20
We are your hosts, Kevin Anthony, and Céline Remy and we are here to guide you to go from good to amazing in the bedroom and beyond.

Kevin Anthony 0:27
All right, welcome back to the love lab podcast. This is Episode 101. That is 101. And it’s titled your ancestors had better sex than you and we can prove it. Okay. I have been wanting to do this episode for a long time. And it kind of started from a book, which I will be sharing from a lot today that I was reading that it was covering a lot of history stuff and it’s one of those books where they cover the stuff that you don’t get in most of your regular textbooks.

Kevin Anthony 1:02
And it just had some hysterical, absolutely hysterical facts about sex in past history. So I thought it would be really fun to do a show on that. And of course, we did some more research into this. And it is such a deep rabbit hole we have so much for you today and it’s barely scratching the surface.

Céline Remy 1:23
So how about telling our listeners what the book is, in case they like loving it and what more of it Okay,

Kevin Anthony 1:31
so and this book has way more than just sex stuff. But here I’m showing it here. It’s called the Detextbook. And its title its subtitle is the stuff you didn’t know about the stuff you thought you knew. So basically, what they’re doing is going through a lot of historical stuff that you think you know, correctly, because you know you’ve learned in school, right? And showing you that what you learned wasn’t really quite right.

Céline Remy 1:56
But I’m really excited to dive into this because I have to be honest You’re the one who put all of this together mostly and I’m expecting to be laughing a lot. So before we get started, let’s give a big shout out to our sponsor power and mastery.

Céline Remy 2:11

Kevin Anthony 2:31
Alright, so before we dive into how just how kinky history was, I have a quote here. It’s an author Philip Larkin famously announced that sexual intercourse began in 1963, between the end of the Chatterley ban and the Beatle’s first LP.

Kevin Anthony 2:56
So you know, the reason I put that in there to begin this show is that I think a lot of people have this idea that sex was pretty much only for procreation in the past and that it wasn’t really until the sexual revolution in the 60s that people started opening up and that’s where some of the more risky sexual practices came from.

Kevin Anthony 3:20
You really have to ask yourself this question this goes with anything that you think you know about, is that really true? And I can tell you that is absolute fucking nonsense. We are going to take the rest of this show to prove it to you just how messed up kinky sexy and everything… You might even learn something.

Céline Remy 3:43
You know, one of the reasons that people think that way is because most of the past sexuality has been removed from the textbook so that you would never know it, or you know, it’s just been like polished a little bit but as we will see from like, some of the very First books there are seen in there. As a matter of fact, even the Bible has sex.

Kevin Anthony 4:06
That’s right. Well, first of all, a big clue is that if you look at famous paintings or sex all over the place, there are giant orgies all over the place that’s a little bit of a clue. But for some reason, they decided to take all this stuff out of the textbook.

Céline Remy 4:23
Why was it we’re visiting this museum? And, and it was all about it was all things from like Europe, and I was like, oh, let’s go see this. Because, you know,

Kevin Anthony 4:32
Europeans, Getty in Los Angeles,

Céline Remy 4:35
They had a French exposition there. I’m like, oh, let’s go see this. And all the statues had their penises cut off.

Kevin Anthony 4:42
Yeah, every statue had its penis broken off. But I’ll tell you, you know, long before I came across this book, I was somewhat fascinated by this subject, because many years ago, I was in Paris, and I was in the red light district of Paris. Actually on my way to I’m gonna totally butcher this because I don’t speak French very well, Walmart.

Céline Remy 5:02
Oh, that’s good.

Kevin Anthony 5:03
So, so not far from there, we were walking around the city that we had to walk through the red light district on our way there. That’s where I saw they had something called the Museum of sex. We have to, we have to go into the museum of sex. And we did and I was fascinated by the old carved wooden dildos. There were literally chairs that had a dildo like carved into it.

Kevin Anthony 5:31
There was black and white, silent film porn that had everything from homosexuality in it to oral sex and everything else. And at that point in my life, I was like, Oh, my God, I had no idea they did that back then. Right. But as the authors of this book, say, they say it turns out that 95% of history was fueled by mankind’s urge to bang and let me tell you, that is true.

Céline Remy 5:57
That’s nothing new. Right? So, do we go back to our Bible?

Kevin Anthony 6:03
Yes. All right, I’m going to read a passage from the Bible right now. So one of the things this book says is that they, they call out what is a myth and what the truth is, and the myth is, the Bible is all chaste lessons, turn the other cheek, do unto others quit covered in your neighbors, that kind of stuff. But the truth is, there’s also a lot of insane sex going down, presumably to make sure everyone keeps paying attention through the slow parts.

Kevin Anthony 6:32
So what they’re saying here is that there are actually a lot of sections that are talking about sex. So in here they’re saying rather than using phrases like reverse frog squat, you know, or some other sex position, biblical sex is described almost exclusively as coming in unto but once you get past the unimaginative verbs, the Bible has some nasty nasty stories Case in point Genesis 1930 dash 36 and the last dwelt in the mountain. Oh, sorry.

Kevin Anthony 7:03
And Lot dwelt in the mountain and his two daughters with him. The firstborn said to the younger, come let us make our father drink wine and we will fly with him that we may preserve the seat of our father and pay may their father drunk wine. And the firstborn went in and lay with her father. They give other examples too about

Céline Remy 7:24
This is incest. It’s disgusting.

Kevin Anthony 7:26
yes, it was okay. Aside from the fact that it’s incest, it’s sex. That’s the point right? Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth when she was a prostitute in Egypt. There she lusted after her lovers whose genitals were like those of a donkey. Their mission was like that of horses. That’s from Ezekiel 2319- 20. Okay, so I knew you were gonna laugh a lot during this episode. So here you go.

Kevin Anthony 7:55
People are thinking that sex is a modern invention. We’re already going back To the Bible, and we’re pointing out that there were all kinds of sex stuff in the Bible and nasty things to things that shouldn’t exist. As a matter of fact, if you think that perversion has only come now, but I think it’s been going on for many, many, many centuries. Oh, yes. And so I found actually a really good article to the independent and it was called a brief cultural history of sex. Hmm.

Kevin Anthony 8:24
And so they kind of went through some major time periods. And then, they talked about what it was like during those time periods, and I’m going to supplement those time periods with some other stuff. That comes from the book here. Like when we get to the Victorians and the type of stuff they were up to.

Céline Remy 8:42
Prude Victorians.

Kevin Anthony 8:44
Yeah, exactly. The fate as the book says the famously prudish Victorian people were freaky as hell. But we’ll get there we got some other things to cover first. So, let’s start with the Greeks. And this comes from the independent article. aphrodisiac, eroticism, homosexuality, narcissism, nymphomania, pederasty, and all those terms derived from the language of ancient Greece, which tells you something about its society.

Kevin Anthony 9:11
If they had words for all of these things, then obviously all of these things were happening. Things such as the middle of Homer and Plutarch told stories such as that of Aphrodite, Goddess of sexual intercourse, who emerged from the foaming semen of her father’s castrated testicles. Then there were the mortal heroes such as Hercules, who would have said ravaged 50 virgins in a single night, but who also had an affair with his nephew, low layers, and fell in love with sweet hi Lois.

Kevin Anthony 9:50
He of the curling locks, so, you know, he had affairs with young boys and he also ravished 50 virgins in a single night. What a stud. What a stud. Well, he was Hercules. Hercules is V like a stereotypical stud, right? There’s a whole bunch of stuff in here about pedophilia and adult men having adolescent boys serve as their lovers. I don’t really want to go into that too much, especially since it’s way too current a topic these days, but just so you know, apparently that happened a lot back then.

Kevin Anthony 10:24
Then let’s see. Then neglected wives found ways to satisfy their desires. lesbians certainly existed, and the culture is associated most particularly with the island of Lesbos, where burning Sappho loved and sung. There are also plenty of literary references to the use of dildos, which in ancient Greece were made of padded leather and anointed with olive oil before us. Wait till we get to. Yeah, the I think it was the Victorians again and dildos Yes, we’ll get there.

Céline Remy 10:59
interested in this island of Lesbos? Like I want to take a little trip

Kevin Anthony 11:04
Should we take a vacation?

Céline Remy 11:05
Sorry, you can’t get there.

Kevin Anthony 11:07
Oh, there’s got to be at least a few bi in there.

Céline Remy 11:14
Well, what I do love though is appointed I want to bring is that I do think that homosexuality heterosexuality and as well as perverted sexual behaviors have existed since its origin pretty much and a sexual orientation whether you’re homosexual or heterosexual monogamous or polyamorous, it really doesn’t matter as long as you are with the consenting person.

Céline Remy 11:42
However, when there’s an age difference and you’re abusing children, I do I draw the line at that, obviously, um, but I do want to say that it also is an interesting concept because I’ve always felt as a woman that we are naturally drawn to being more bisexual or bisexual. That it’s just natural. And I think that men back then we’re more in touch with that part of themselves.

Céline Remy 12:06
I don’t know exactly what happened because when you read all of this, it was very normal for guys to have lover boys or younger men. And I think somewhere along with history, it became a big taboo that men with men, you know, but it’s just fascinating. Anyway, so

Kevin Anthony 12:24
you said that Polly and that’s a perfect segue into the Roman. Let’s talk about those Romans for a minute.

Céline Remy 12:33
First thing you’re thinking about our orgies?

Kevin Anthony 12:36
Exactly. I mean, there’s tons of stuff in here about the Romans. But let’s see, despite this, the orgiastic culture of Legends certainly existed during the bacchanalian festivals, which all restraint was abandoned, such as such was the hedonism and lawlessness of these rights with rampant couplings of both heterosexual and homosexual nature.

Kevin Anthony 12:59
The public worship of Baucus was finally outlawed in 186 BCE, prostitution was widespread and legal. The Greek tradition if they call it pet rescue is pedophilia. Basically it was significant enough to cause concern when the Roman birth rate dropped. Plenty. We probably heard of planning I think he was planning the elder if I recall that he was planning something I don’t even remember. Yeah, I can’t remember. Anyway, he recommended a mouse Dong applied in the form of a limit or pigeon droppings mixed with oil and wine.

Céline Remy 13:35
where to put that exactly?

Kevin Anthony 13:38
Let’s see. Much more successful was the method devised by gynecologists to the serenity of Ephesus, who suggested a wall plug in the uterus impregnated with gummy substances. So these were forms of birth control actually, they were the some of the original contraception so so you were putting mass dung in your vagina basically

Céline Remy 13:59
faster. So like as a spermicide, basically,

Kevin Anthony 14:02
no, that’s it. That’s exactly what it was. It was basically a sperm sign.

Céline Remy 14:06
So interesting that they already had a connection that sexual intercourse would lead to having a baby. And you didn’t want to have babies all the time. So but you still wanted to have sex, so then you had to become very creative.

Kevin Anthony 14:20
Exactly. And that’s one of the things so wait till we get to what they made condoms out of in the Middle Ages. Okay, stay tuned for that one. But what I think is sort of the point of all of this, is that it really goes to show that none of this stuff is new. Condoms aren’t a new thing developed, you know, in the last 40 years and, and, and, you know, sex for the fun of it isn’t something new, you know, homosexuality isn’t something new like this stuff has all been around since the beginning of time.

Céline Remy 14:52
So something that found also fascinating, and it’s just coming is literally, we went through like sexual reverence. Lucian where people were like reclaiming who they were sexually probably what would you say like the 60s or something like that. So

Kevin Anthony 15:06
that’s what the modern world basically sees that the 60s was that sort of sexual

Céline Remy 15:10
revolution. But what I’m seeing is now we’re in 2020. And we are needed again for a sexual revolution where people get back to having sex, claiming it and doing it more often. And we’ll give you some numbers later during the show. But it makes me ponder, could it be that we are just slowly repeating this over and over throughout history where there’s a liberation, a sexual liberation that happens and then there’s a little bit of a prude ness or like shying back away from that? And then again, if you go back

Kevin Anthony 15:43
to john swinging from one end to the other end, yeah. And you know, what it goes to show is that what’s acceptable, really has more to do with your culture than anything else. So what time period you live in and what culture Do you live in because things have really oscillated back and forth from crazy just anything goes type of sexuality to extremely rigid nothing really goes sexuality which again is another perfect segue into the Christianity years.

Kevin Anthony 16:18
So according to Ray Tana hills book sex in history the years between 400 AD and 1000 ad saw Christian morality gain a grip on Western thought. So parallelizing that is only now beginning to relax. A lot of apparently the rules regarding sex originate in the Hebrew law of the Old Testament and were fixed firm for over 1500 years. From Ross, not that firm trust me they weren’t having too much sex.

Céline Remy 16:47
Just imagining from penises really.

Kevin Anthony 16:49
Oh, I know. But they, you know, they made all kinds of stuff incest, masturbation, oral sex, anal sex, homosexuality all deemed sinful and punishable by the Christian church with increasing severity. So there was a big crackdown during this particular time on sex. Mm-hmm. And some of that stuff still exists to this day.

Céline Remy 17:11
I mean, it’s probably one of the biggest things that we deal with, where are those people coming and seeing, like how it raised certain religion, and there’s still so much drama and I want to be more in tune with my body and sexuality. And so we have to go back into some work around that.

Kevin Anthony 17:26
Absolutely. And, you know, the, I will also say that you know, this Christian error, you know, it lasted for a long time, but it wasn’t always quite that strict. For instance, in the Middle Ages, everybody associates the Middle Ages with crusades, right. Christian crusades running around conquering for God, you know, that that sort of thing. But in the Middle Ages, there’s actually use of condoms, and I mentioned that before.

Kevin Anthony 17:58
So condoms back then, apparently. consisted of animal bladders and intestines, tied with twine, and were reused many times. It appears they were used more as a way of preventing venereal diseases such as syphilis. Later versions of the condoms were made with linen, the first contraceptive use of the condom was not until the mid-1600s. But still, they’re using it to prevent venereal disease in the Middle Ages. And then contraception in the 1600s.

Céline Remy 18:30
I was having all these spots of like, okay, they reusable do they like to pass them around? Or do you have one of

Kevin Anthony 18:36
Do they wash them? out they wash them before they use them? Yeah, but what’s funny is even modern condoms. I mean, nowadays they’re pretty much all, you know, latex or whatever. But it was common, not that many years ago to have sheepskin, that’s true.

Céline Remy 18:53
Yeah.

Kevin Anthony 18:54
Right. So that’s not all that unusual.

Céline Remy 18:56
So that’s going back to the middle Middle Ages, right. Yeah,

Kevin Anthony 18:59
and Which but check this out. We’re not done with the Middle Ages yet, because women also use contraception. They use concoctions of a variety of ingredients that acted as a kind of spermicide they were implied inside the vagina, what they were called pessaries and one pessary recipe consisted of ground dates Acacia bark, and a touch of honey mixed into a moist paste. The wool or cloth was then soaked with this mixture and inserted inside the vagina.

Céline Remy 19:30
So curious like Did it work? And like what was in there? You know, like I would be more like if I read ahead some like herbs or things that you do know or they use castor oil you know because castor oil is kind of a natural spermicide but I’m like dates and honey. I don’t know about acacia. Yeah, maybe that’s where there’s something special in the bark of the acacia. Anyway, whether it be if it worked for them, that’s wonderful.

Céline Remy 19:57
So I guess next we’re going to go to our Renaissance. Pleasure But before that, we want to invite you to our Platinum program.

Kevin Anthony 20:44
All right, so yes, we are now at the Renaissance. And I thought it would be great to start the Renaissance period by letting everybody know that according to the Old English dictionary, that’s when the first use of the term dildo appears apparently in the dictionary. So it says the word deal that was not actually used until the Renaissance period, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, but one fanciful explanation of its origin was a small elongated loaf of bread flavored with dill, thus, the deal dough.

Kevin Anthony 21:23
I have no idea if that’s true, honestly. But literally, that’s what it said in this article. So it’s possible. I don’t know maybe

Céline Remy 21:34
I’m laughing I mean, full disclosure, it’s gonna be on the air. I’m going to say I’ve had sex with I think I had a carrot once. So you know, why not a dildo. You know,

Kevin Anthony 21:44
hey, you know why Yeah, why not? It’s probably better than like a hard piece of wood getting splinters and so

Céline Remy 21:50
I’ve used cucumber but not really for masturbation, but when you peel off the cucumber, it’s supposedly like helps to cleanse the vagina and tighten them. and stuff so I was using like appealed cucumber and analysis is

Kevin Anthony 22:03
that like when you put cucumber slices on your eyes, same thing

Céline Remy 22:07
works for your vagina, so I tried it a few times, you know?

Céline Remy 22:13
So yeah.

Kevin Anthony 22:15
So, so back to the Renaissance here. The article said the spread of syphilis to epidemic proportions across Europe in the 16th century reveals that many men and women were not as chaste as the church would have liked.

Céline Remy 22:31
Busted, busted.

Céline Remy 22:33
Unfortunately, back then you died of syphilis.

Kevin Anthony 22:36
You could Yeah, hmm. Let’s see prostitution was a large scale across the continent. There were 7000 public women in Rome in 1490. And the brothels of Southwark in London were notorious. So yeah, a whole lot of sex happening there. Let’s see.

Céline Remy 22:59
I mean, it is cool. The oldest profession in the world when it comes to tuition. And it’s, it’s for a reason it’s

Kevin Anthony 23:05
been around for a long, long time. So there are all kinds of other stuff that was happening. The act of buggery was introduced for the first time in 1533. What the heck is buggery that made sodomy between men punishable by death?

Céline Remy 23:23
So just anal sex?

Kevin Anthony 23:25
You know, sex between two guys. Okay, we call it Why didn’t they punish like anal sex with a little boy? Because who cares about to man? Well, hey, I don’t know. That’s just what they did back then. Right?

Céline Remy 23:37
They headed wrong.

Kevin Anthony 23:41
Alright, let’s jump into the Victorians because the Victorians are very interesting people. Now I’m going to switch back over to my book here. Right, the D textbook here. It says the famous Li prudish, Victorian people. The myth of the Victorian era was a time when porn was a woman showing her ankle?

Céline Remy 24:03
Oh, it’s so like, that’s definitely the idea people have.

Kevin Anthony 24:06
Yeah. Okay. Well, according to the book here the truth. Oh, it’s true that Victorians weren’t exactly into halter tops and assless pants in public. In private, they made up for it by producing extraordinary amounts of porn. And not just any porn, but the nasty stuff. We’re talking incest, rape, pedophilia, orgies BDSM you name it. All but I thought BDSM only got popular when 50 Shades of Grey came out. Isn’t that when BDSM was invented?

Céline Remy 24:38
No, no, no. We’re talking about it in the Victorian’s time.

Kevin Anthony 24:44
Okay, I’m going to read a piece published in 1907 Memoirs of a young wreck. What is that? Right, I don’t know. Anyway. Her dark pubic hair I noticed climbed all the way up. her navel, her nipples were set in a small field of light brown hair, lifting her breasts. I saw that she also had some sort some short, fine black hair underneath.

Kevin Anthony 25:11
The sight of all this healthy fleece cost john Thomas to harden even more. I ripped off my nice shirt and straddled with the lovely creature whose rhythmic movements set my pickle slapping back and forth against her belly. Seriously, I mean,

Céline Remy 25:28
I have to say this is the first time that Kevin’s reading porn out loud or erotica. And I’m kind of enjoying it. He’s

Kevin Anthony 25:34
getting turned Oh, yeah. Well, you might, you will not get this turned down when I read to you a song Mozart wrote? Well, yes, that Mozart the same Mozart. Alright, the myth classical composers almost never composed works about asked to mouth. The truth, the same genius who wrote Piano Concerto number 24. minor also wrote this and we are not kidding. Let me read you the amazingly poetic lyrics of this song.

Kevin Anthony 26:09
Lick my ass nicely. Lick it nice and clean, nice and clean, lick my ass. That’s a greasy desire nicely buttered, like the licking of roast meat my daily activity. Three will lick more than two. Come on just try it and lick lick lick everybody licks lick his own ass himself. So yeah, apparently Mozart had quite a sense of humor. And he wrote this as a joke.

Kevin Anthony 26:39
Which is probably why you’ve never heard of it before. But he actually did write this and these were things that they would do sort of in private, just laughing and joking with themselves. But it goes to show you know what kind of stuff they were into. You know what, what were they doing?

Céline Remy 26:55
Goodness

Kevin Anthony 26:58
you hadn’t read that part? Yeah.

Céline Remy 27:00
Oh, I was just trying not to laugh too hard. I’m thinking this is a crazy episode. thanks for bearing with us. You know we hoping with you getting as much laughter as we are out of it.

Kevin Anthony 27:09
Alright, so we’re still in the Victorian era, by the way, really? Oh yes. So again, you know these pure Victorians here. So, it said in 1839 in London, a city of 2 million inhabitants there were estimated to be around 80,000 prostitutes. Oh, wow. 80,000 Wow, that is a big number.

Céline Remy 27:40
Mm-hmm. I hope they were paid. Well.

Kevin Anthony 27:43
I hope so too because apparently venereal disease was rife. And syphilis spread wildly between prostitutes their clients and their client’s families. Including apparently Winston Churchill’s father. Lovely, but so so then this gets even more interesting. So thus clean virgins became a highly desirable commodity.

Kevin Anthony 28:04
Although faking it was so easy that by the 1880s, the price had dropped from 100 earlier in the century to just $5 a session. So, in other words, if you claimed that you were a clean version, you could command $100.

Céline Remy 28:19
Wow, that must have been a lot back then.

Kevin Anthony 28:22
Yeah, but how can anybody tell? No, they just did a little marketing and it was like, everybody’s starting to figure it out. It’s only gonna pay five bucks for that, because who knows?

Céline Remy 28:32
Wow, it’s fascinating. So let’s go a little bit closer to nowadays. So we’ve seen now that there’s nothing new when it comes to sex that they’ve been at it for Well, since the beginning. I mean, honestly, we wouldn’t be here if our ancestors hadn’t been fucking and banging like crazy, right? For sure. But now we can acknowledge that they had a lot of fun.

Céline Remy 28:52
Apparently they explored their kinkiness there were times in history to where it was even supported, encouraged, and died. More in the open and then you went through times where it maybe it was more hidden but it was still happening. So I think it never really went down.

Kevin Anthony 29:08
What about our beloved Einstein?

Céline Remy 29:11
Well, let’s that’s closer to home now. So let’s look at Einstein. Okay? Wasn’t he just like this physicist scientist’s very smart guy?

Kevin Anthony 29:20
Well, yes, but according to this book when he wasn’t sciencing the hell out of everything. Einstein spent his time postulating his Wiener into as many women as possible, even though he was married twice. Once to his cousin’s gonna say, Yeah, he cheated on both of his wives with about 10 different women. Let’s see. In his defense, he presented his first wife with a list of rules, one of which was expected neither intimacy nor financial fidelity.

Kevin Anthony 29:52
So even Einstein, everybody’s beloved famous science geek was pretty big into sacks. Huh Huh? What about the Puritans? Come on. Now I know you’re listening to the show you’re on. Come on, Kevin. You can’t rip on the Puritans. Right. What could you possibly say about the Puritan? I mean, the world itself is there pure? Well, the myth is, every American school kid who has sat through a lesson on the history of thanksgiving learned that the pilgrims who founded America were a group of sexually repressed religious fanatics known as Puritans. Okay, yeah. So what is the truth? Do tell Kevin.

Kevin Anthony 30:40
Wow, sex between unmarried couples was theoretically a crime in a Puritan society that hardly slowed them down. It just meant that their society was rife with shotgun weddings, according to some studies up to one and one in three Puritan women were pregnant before they got married.

Céline Remy 30:56
Yeah, not much has changed.

Kevin Anthony 30:58
Nope. It really hasn’t.

Céline Remy 31:05
And you have one more example here, you want to give us that.

Kevin Anthony 31:07
Well, now we’re getting into much more modern times. And this is the last one. It’s a quiz. So I have a question for you. I’m going to see if you can get it correct. Which US president nicknamed his penis jumbo,

Céline Remy 31:25
and was found of showing it to people with the slightest provocation.

Kevin Anthony 31:30
Okay, so it’s a multiple-choice question. I’m going to give you three choices. A Bill Clinton, B, Bill Clinton. See, Bill Clinton. You’re probably thinking that it’s Bill Clinton. And you would be wrong. You would absolutely be wrong. No, actually the answer was, drumroll de dooda dooda dooda dooda.

Kevin Anthony 32:01
Lyndon B Johnson. Apparently Lyndon Johnson really loved his penis. And apparently it was quite large. And anytime the topic came up, he would just whip it out and show it to everybody. Yeah. Does he have

Céline Remy 32:14
a book about him as a Dong waving sex machine?

Kevin Anthony 32:19
No, I think that was a little bit of Photoshop fun in this book.

Céline Remy 32:24
What is this?

Kevin Anthony 32:25
Okay? But it does say while other unfaithful presidents were satisfied with little affairs here and there. Johnson’s bevy of babes was referred to by his male aides as a harem.

Céline Remy 32:36
Wow. All right. So okay, so it’s been going on for a long time. We have a yes, we have all of these people having sex. But I started to dig in a little bit deeper because so now we are kind of like to Woods now of time where people are like saying we are so free sexually and we can express ourself we’ve gone such a long way because Things like being homosexual is not accepted, you can be in the open and even having multiple relationships and all of this.

Céline Remy 33:07
And that got me to dive into some stats and some research. And there was a study that was, was done on like a really big number of people. It was over like 26,000 adults that were taken into account in that study. And the study is called declines in sexual frequency among American adults between the ages of 1989 and 2014. The gist of it is that it found that people are having sex less in general, it was also revised in 2017. So it’s not that old, really.

Céline Remy 33:47
And some of the things that they found is that American adults in the early 2000 10s report having sex about nine fewer times a year than those in the late 1990s. Okay. It’s just like nine times less a year. But when you think about it, it adds up. And then those born in the 1930s, the silent generation having sex about six more times a year on average than those born in the 1990s.

Kevin Anthony 34:15
This is shocking, right? shocking to most people, because how many people want to thank you like, you know, so, my grandparents were actually born in the 20s. So a little bit before that, but most people when they think about somebody born in the 30s, the thing at least nowadays about their grandparents, and in their minds, there’s no way their grandparents had more sex than they did.

Kevin Anthony 34:38
There’s no way that like, most young people probably think their grandpas didn’t even know what sex is like, Oh, they were so old fashioned. They don’t know this, that they were having more sex than the young generations today. It’s funny. I’m smiling because my grandpa was born in 1933. And he is the person who introduced me to erotica novels. He had a lot of like, sex. Pick like novels.

Céline Remy 35:01
And yeah, that’s the thing that he introduced me to only in Europe with that. But I wanted to bring this in because to kind of tie it into our idea about this episode or title where we were saying your ancestors had better sex than you. What we seeing is that nowadays people’s priorities have changed. Back then they didn’t have TVs they didn’t have like iPhones and all these things to distract us constantly. They had more time they work less they were less dressed.

Céline Remy 35:34
What do you see happen is when you work for class when you have less stress, when you have to save more time, you start to focus on the things that matter. And for most people, it comes down to their family, it comes down to their loved one to making love for creating a beautiful time or beautiful home for their family. If there’s one thing that you should take away from today’s episode, is, first of all, there’s nothing kinky about what you like sexually because it’s all already been done here,

Kevin Anthony 36:06
somebody has been there and done that you ain’t that original. Exactly.

Céline Remy 36:10
So just embrace who you are sexually. But second of all, remember that your ancestors made time for sex. It was an important part of their lives and they weren’t just always like hiding it or not like, putting it into its place. And so take some time to reconnect with the people you love. Make time to make love with your beloved have a weekly date night where this is the whole night is about making love. Because when you do this, it changes the quality of the life that you’re living.

Kevin Anthony 36:44
Yeah. And you know, I would say you made a statement that they worked less and probably some people are going What are you kidding me like these people were slaves. They work 24 hours around the clock actually, they did a study a while back and they determined that people in the feudal system, right? So you know, you had lords and you had the common serfs. The serfs actually worked fewer hours a day than you do. Yeah, and fewer hours a day than you do.

Céline Remy 37:10
And that’s sad. We’re all overworked. So it’s time to like slow things down. And, you know if that’s one thing we’ve learned through this pandemic that we all went through is that it’s okay to slow things down. It’s okay. So remember that and remember to have a lot of sex.

Kevin Anthony 37:28
Absolutely. Remember to have a lot of sex, embrace whatever sexuality means to you, and enjoy it. It’s definitely a part of life. And like we said before, somebody has been there and done that. So you know,

Céline Remy 37:44
not that much of a big deal.
