"A quick look at my web history will tell you a few things about me: I&amp;amp;#8217;m in the market for a new bike, I&amp;amp;#8217;m planning a trip to Washington, D.C. and I frequently research sex tips, advice, products and toys. What do you think your browsing history says about you? The New York Times recently reviewed, A Billion Wicked Thoughts, a new book that looks analyzes various words entered into search engines and tries to make some sense of them. The books authors, Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam, are neuroscientists who met as graduate students. Using data from the search engine aggregator Dogpile, the authors found that of the 400 million search terms users entered over the course of a year, 55 million of these bon mots were &amp;amp;#8220;sexual in nature.&amp;amp;#8221; Further, the Times shares that the authors looked at &amp;amp;#8220;sex research, evolutionary psychology and comments posted on pornography hubs and other Web sites &amp;amp;#8212; &amp;amp;#8216;the finite set of sexual cues&amp;amp;#8217; (analogous to the five different taste cues our tongues can discern) hard-wired into our neural circuitry that &amp;amp;#8216;activate our desire software.&amp;amp;#8217;&amp;amp;#8221; What does it all mean? According to the Times reviewer, the book suggests that authors&amp;amp;#8217; &amp;amp;#8220;breakdown is simple. Men like pornography. Women like romance novels.&amp;amp;#8221; More specifically, men crave visual stimulation (porn, sexy photos, etc) while women like a little more substance when they&amp;amp;#8217;re looking to get hot and bothered online. Do you agree with this book&amp;amp;#8217;s premise? When you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling frisky, what cheeky words do you enter into search engines?
