Sep. 17th, 2008 02:03 pmGod, I love my psychology book, sometimes. Even when I'm bored by the material.
"If a body part is amputated, sensory fibers that terminate on adjacent areas of the sensory cortex may invade the brain tissue that's no longer receiving sensory input."..."Note, too, that the toes region [of sensory nerves] is adjacent to the genitals. So what do you suppose was the sexual intercourse experience of another Ramachandran patient whose lower leg had been amputated? 'I actually experience my orgasm in my foot. And there it's much bigger than it used to be because it's no longer just confined to my genitals."
I think my line for the day is: I kid you not.
