Steamy Entertainment

90s TV

The ‘90s were a great time for sitcoms, with shows like Friends, Frasier, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and more, debuting to big success. It was also when TV censors weren’t quite as lenient as today, meaning showrunners had to be discreet with adult jokes. As it turns out, there are many of these to go around, thanks to well-timed dialogue and witty material.Even animated sitcoms like The Simpsons and teen-based shows like That ‘70s Show get in on the action. It’s hilarious to look back at the jokes that were perfectly concealed to get through the censorship board. Some are a bit more obvious while others are subtle. But all of them deliver big laughs for the naughty insinuations they contain.&nbsp;

Think history is all dry dates and boring biographies? Think again. There&#39;s plenty of sex in history, and some of the most famous figures of all time have some wild stories about getting down and dirty. Fashions and social mores may have changed, but people are still people &ndash; and that means that we have always loved to spread scandalous rumors about our most important figures.

You may have heard some of these rumors from history. A persistent tale about Catherine the Great, for instance, claims she perished while getting intimate with a horse. One beloved composer may have had a surprising proclivity, and a couple of American presidents were whispered to have had scandalous affairs. And then there&#39;s the story of Rasputin&#39;s penis. It supposedly continued to travel the world long after he&#39;d left the earth.

From carnal addiction to sexual contraptions and everything in between, here are some of the juiciest rumors not covered in your textbooks.

A Methodist boy from Ohio becomes a professor &ndash; then he becomes a tattoo artist for the Hells Angels, friends with the global literati, and a writer of steamy gay fiction: Samuel Steward&#39;s biography is nothing if not fascinating.&nbsp;Also known as Philip Sparrow and Philip Andros, Steward went from a career in academia to one as a tattoo artist and photographer, all while working with novelist Gertrude Stein and sex researcher Alfred Kinsey.

Since his passing, Steward&#39;s contributions to a positive gay literature and identity during some of the most repressive eras in United States history, have been celebrated as have his more general contributions to literature. It&#39;s not hyperbole to say that, during&nbsp;his 84&nbsp;years on the planet, Steward lived several lifetimes.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Morning wood is one of the most mystifying aspects of masculinity. Sleeping is not a sexual activity, and yet men often wake up with erect penises and have no idea why. How - and why - does this happen?Several humorous explanations have been offered for the morning wood mystery. On a memorable episode of Beavis and Butt-head, audiences learn that these erections are caused by the Morning Wood Fairy. The small fairy flies in during the middle of the night and magically grants erections.If you prefer your answer more scientifically grounded, you'll be relieved to hear that the phenomenon of waking up hard (which has the more scientific name of nocturnal penile tumescence) has been carefully studied by scientists. They've explored morning wood biology and boner physics to provide all the answers. Read on to discover some A.M. erection facts that might surprise you.

In many ways,&nbsp;Marthe Richard was the original James Bond: beautiful, smart, and savvy, she used her wiles and her wits to survive. She holds a unique place among other notable women in history, thanks in large part to the insane Marthe Richard tales that pepper her colorful biography.Born in northeastern France in 1889, she turned to a life of prostitution as a teenager. Like other historical prostitutes, though, Richard didn't let her perceived lower position hold her back. Soon, she was arranging lucrative marriages for herself, flying planes, and joining the ranks of spies during both World War I and II. Stories about her adventures seem crazy - and Richard was a known embellisher of the truth -&nbsp;but the facts don't lie. Simply put, Richard&nbsp;lived an extraordinary life. By the time she passed away in 1982, she had left her mark on European history.Richard's experiences spanned <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/ww2-european-theater-stories/philgibbons">wars</a>, decades, and countless lovers. She was a queen of her own narrative, determined to raise herself from humble beginnings to wealth and prestige, no matter what.

Celebrities

It isn&#39;t unusual for devoted fans to try to express their obsession&nbsp;in some shape or form. When it comes to celebrities, admirers love sending fan mail. The vast majority of people love to get this kind of admiration and go out of their way to give back - there are even <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/sweet-videos-of-celebrities-surprising-their-fans/mel-judson" target="_blank">videos of celebrities</a> being sweet to their fans. However, the biggest supporters can sometimes go to extreme lengths in their attempts to grab the attention of their heroes.

Fans who go too far to impress their idols can&#39;t distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate expressions of admiration.&nbsp;Some <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/celebrities-who-have-been-attacked/celebrity-lists" target="_blank">fans have accosted celebrities</a> or have sent terrifying &quot;gifts.&quot; Like the case of Rodrigo&nbsp;Ruiz&nbsp;and Jennifer&nbsp;Lopez - Ruiz sent Lopez pictures of himself in his b-day suit, completely unsolicited, and then sued her when she didn&#39;t respond.

In fact, experiences with bizarre followers have even driven some celebrities to <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/celebrities-who-hate-their-fans/evan-lambert" target="_blank">hate their fans</a>. Other fans have spent ridiculous amounts of time or money on merchandise and obsessive projects.&nbsp;Check out the creepy stories below of obsessed fans that have gone overboard in proclaiming their undying love for their favorite idols and franchises.&nbsp;

Despite its expectations of&nbsp;holiness and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/popes-who-were-sexually-active/philgibbons" target="_blank">celibacy</a>,&nbsp;the Catholic Church has been the subject of a fair share of monastic scandal. Nearly all of these scandals, however, pale&nbsp;in comparison&nbsp;to the tales of coercion and wrongdoing&nbsp;that haunt the history of&nbsp;Maria Agnese&nbsp;Firrao&#39;s convent.

The nuns in Rome&#39;s Sant&#39;Ambrogio&nbsp;della&nbsp;Massima&nbsp;were subjected to sexual&nbsp;initiation rites, sometimes involving upwards of three people. Even after the convent&#39;s founder,&nbsp;Maria Agnese Firrao, was removed from her position, other nuns filled her shoes. By the 1850s, Mistress of Novices Maria Luisa was enforcing salacious trysts&nbsp;between herself and the&nbsp;nuns in her convent, forging letters from the Virgin Mary, and threatening&nbsp;anyone who questioned her methods. These illicit truths, buried <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/creepy-things-in-the-vatican/april-a-taylor?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">in the Vatican</a> Archives for decades, only emerged when scholar Hubert Wolf cracked the case wide open in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nuns-SantAmbrogio-Story-Convent-Scandal/dp/0804169802" target="_blank">The Nuns of Sant&rsquo;Ambrogio</a>.&nbsp;Even more shocking, however, are the lengths to which these nuns went to hide their secrets.&nbsp;

Weird Things That Can Mess Up Your Sex Life

Culture

These aren&#39;t necessarily movies about incest, but movies where incest has come up in one of the relationships depicted in the movie. Currently the practice of incest is banned in almost all civilized countries, with punishments in some being worse than others. Though some cultures encourage the practice among cousins, the societal norm is blood relation means no invitation... for the making of the sex, that is (I apologize ahead of time).

Now, while these aren&#39;t incest movies (or incest films), they do happen to have overtly incestuous themes and scenes. Sometimes the incest is played out like a joke, but most of the time it is in an uncomfortable way. Whether it was for revenge, love, or just because they were ignorant of their connections, the incest in these movies is usually hotter than it should be.

Celebrity sex tapes come in two forms: the celebrities that were famous first and featured in a&nbsp;tape second and those who actually became famous for their involvement in a tape. There are also, of course, those celebrity sex tapes you DIDN&#39;T want to see. Most of these celeb tapes are actually watchable, but there are certainly a few that we wouldn&#39;t recommend.

Be it an actor, actress, singer or politician, male or female, intimate movies seem to be all the rage for the biggest celebrities these days. Some are released by former lovers looking to make a buck while others are filmed in secret without the knowledge of the participants. Some famous people even market their own tapes with the hopes of making a buck or getting their names back in the headlines via news reports about a star or wannabe star&#39;s latest new celebrity sex tape. Occasionally famous people will even go for it and full on make a steamy video meant for release. That&#39;s certainly one way to get people to talk about you...

Because of the internet&#39;s existence, nobody is safe and nothing is sacred, so here are the 16 daughters of notable politicians who have brought the drama. Some are fairly innocent, while others have good reason for being so controversial. To be fair, children of politicians can oftentimes find themselves in the limelight just as often as their parents when when they stray from being the perfect child. Paparazzi, news reporters, and entertainment TV love to jump at any chance they get to dog on these kids. Nevertheless, some of these politician&#39;s daughters were certainly up to no good, as you&#39;ll see from some of the stories below.&nbsp;
