WANTED: TEST SUBJECTS

I need volunteers for tests involving physical stimuli -- primarily oral but tactile engagement is not to be discriminated against. Male and female applicants accepted. Disclosure of previous experience is required. Collected data will not be published.

Reply to apply. Genuine inquiries only.

It's simply a matter of personal interest.

[marshall_lee]

Personal interest?
So..are you planning on observing other people kiss or are you planning on participating yourself?

[3potionproblem]

Participation. I've seen it enough, I don't require visual examples.

[marshall_lee]

Hmm..interesting method of getting some action. I gotta hand it to you, it's rather genius.
I'm somewhat jealous I didn't think of it myself actually.

[3potionproblem]

It's not to get 'action'. It's a matter of scientific inquiry.

[marshall_lee]

So..you plan on kissing many different types of people in hopes of discovering what exactly? What you find attractive? What kissing style is most effective? Inquiring minds want to know.

(ooc: he's actually genuinely curious.)

[3potionproblem]

I plan on learning whether I like kissing or not. It's really not a complex study. There are very few variables involved. I've kissed two people and have hated the one and quite enjoyed the other. I was the tall bloke attached to John Watson's face over Valentines week and considering there was a foreign substance involved, I can't rule for certain that I actually liked the kissing or if the enjoyment was a byproduct of the love potion. A larger sample size is required.

(ooc: Oh good~ Because Sherlock loves to talk about his work <3)

[marshall_lee]

I think maybe the level at which you enjoy it depends entirely on the person you're kissing and just how naturally attracted you are to them.
You'd probably also have to take into account that you're doing this with people you might not even attracted to..that's sure to skew your data don't you think?
I suppose if you do this experience with uneffected people, the love potion incident could be considered a one time fluke in an otherwise steady stream of data?

...shit now I'm thinking about it too.

[3potionproblem]

I don't experience attraction, though. Not normally. So it's not really something I need to account for. I did not specify a gender not because I like both but rather that I'm indifferent to either.

[marshall_lee]

Hmm..that does change things a bit I suppose.

Well, I'm not quite sure what I should wish you luck on for your study but I hope it goes well.

[3potionproblem]

Thank you. Regardless of the outcome, facts are facts and I'll be happy to have them.
