A Naughty Exhibit?

I didn’t use the word s-e-x in the title because I was afraid of sending your internet firewall into a tizzy.

But the poster on the left says it all…apparently, some words are the same whether written in German or English.

When it comes to this particular subject, there are two truths that are universally accepted…Europeans are more comfortable with their sexuality and more importantly, sex sells.

This exhibit is on display at the Nature Museum in Stuttgart, Germany until May 2012. I guess last year’s symposium on Coleoid Cephalopods Through Time just didn’t draw in the crowds, so this year the museum decided to try a different tactic.

I visited their website to find out more information and had to use Google’s Translate feature to read it. I think maybe something was lost in translation:

To the special exhibition, we offer an extensive program. Things to do in the public management program are special tours for couples, singles, men only, or women only.

Hmm…

3 Ways Men are Like Lava Cake

Hot, molten, chocolate lava-cake is a decadent custard-sized dessert that is crusty and brownie-like on top, with a hot, melty inside.

Often, these fancy cakes are elegantly garnished with powdered sugar or whipped cream or ripe raspberries.

The best thing about these mini cakes is that they’re served in individual portions, which means you get to have one all to yourself.

Call me strange, but I fantasize about luscious lava cake in much the same way that I fantasize about men.

Over the years, all this decadent fantasizing has led me to discover three important facts that every woman should know lava cake and men:

3 Ways Men are Like Lava Cake

1.  They’re a perfectly sinful treat to be enjoyed on special occasions.

2.  They’re a bit too much trouble to have every day.

3.  The reason we love ’em so much is they’re not quite fully baked.
