Save the Cyclists!

4th April

Gothamist broke some bad news today.  A study says bikes decrease pelvic floor sensitivity making for bad sex. Bad sex makes for no sex. No sex means the entire species of cute cyclists could die out!!!!

But there’s hope.  This is the sort of discovery that reminds me what great work I’m doing for the universe. Since Pilates strengthens the pelvic floor and increases sensitivity, I’m pretty much saving the human race– or at least the sort with cute butts from biking.  Spread the word otherwise the entire species of babes on bikes might die out!

But guess what??? There’s an added benefit.  SEX!

So I got laid which hasn’t happened since before I got serious about my kegels. Now I’ve always tried to work those muscles in bed, like any self-respecting Cosmo reader does.  But …
