Buddy Icon
I've found this buddy icon I made a while back on my computer. I don't remember where the original image came from, but let me know if you come across it so I can give credit where credit is due.

Mmm ... Cornflakes
While reading the book for my Human Sexuality class, I came across an interesting passage which I've duplicated below.
In the 1800s sexual abstinence, simple foods, and fitness were lauded as crucial to health. The Reverend Sylvester Graham, who promoted the use of whole-grain flours and whose name is still attached to graham crackers, wrote that ejaculation reduced precious “vital fluids.” He beseeched men to abstain from masturbation and even marital intercourse to avoid moral and physical degeneracy. John Harvey Kellogg, a physician, carried Graham's work further and developed the cornflake to help prevent masturbation and sexual desire (Kellogg believed that bland food dampened sexual interest and that spicy foods excited sexual desires).
Our Sexuality 9th Edition, pages 246-247
There is an article on rotten.com with more information about our dear friend Dr. Kellogg.
