Official: Music Gives Teenagers The Horn
Share

A scientific study has proved what many have known for a long time – music gives the kids the horn.

Jamaican scientist Tazhmoye Crawford’s findings suggested that for kids aged nine (Ed. Starting them young these days aren’t they!) to seventeen music is the main stimulant for sexual experimentation.

In the study 10% of males and 5% of females suggested that music is the number one factor.

However, for going the whole nine yards music is only the fifth highest motivational factor according to the Guardian.

We’re guessing hormones and alcohol must be amongst the four other causes higher than music.

  • I think the doctor is right! When i was younger i used to listen to music and dance around, but when i got older I listened to more experimental music and got more experimental with sex. When i was younger i would never have been gay but now i can be because of people like bjork. Love you bjork! It gave me the confidence to come out and bott at will. I also like Mr.Labeless, he likes men too - and i should know, because i’m him!!
