Benjamin Franklin was reportedly a huge fan of enemas back when they were called clysters.

Dear Dan: I met a guy right around the time my boyfriend dumped me. I met him on a dating site, but he was really only interested in my boobs and me giving him head. I should have said no, but I was feeling very shitty about myself and thought I had nothing to lose. I almost cut him out completely after an older coworker touched my butt—I confided in this guy, and he told me it would be hot if I showed my coworker a photo of my boobs. And while you may think you have nothing to lose, this asshole clearly sees what you have to lose: your self-esteem, which he is disassembling bit by bit. But they do it for the right reason— they do it because it turns them on. And most importantly, they get off on it.
