This is somewhat distasteful news on the erectile dysfunction front:
Singapore’s Society for Men’s Health and a pharmaceutical firm are proposing a four-point scale for erectile dysfunction, allowing men to rate their own hardness with four categories: cucumber, unpeeled banana, peeled banana and tofu (bean curd).
My question is this: how fresh is that cucumber, and is it an English cucumber, Chinese or — God forbid — a gherkin?
Luckily, this veggie-fruit inspired scale has yet to be adopted by any (reputable) medical body, though I suspect the folks at veggielovers.com are excited by this news.
More gory details here.
