Woman Claims Wii Fit Caused Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome

Amanda Flowers always liked her Wii Fit but now she can't get enough of it. Amanda claims a fall from her balance board damaged a nerve and has left her suffering from persistent sexual arousal syndrome. From the article: "The catering worker said: 'It began as a twinge down below before surging through my body. Sometimes it built up into a trembling orgasm.' A doctor diagnosed her with persistent sexual arousal syndrome due to a damaged nerve."

"Sinful activities"? Please.

    I come from a similar background, and I can tell you that my mother hated anal sex because she would cry for hours after her "husband" was done with her. I came from a broken family, brought together by poverty, my old man tried all he could to put his foul ideas into my mind until finally when I was 14 years old I told him to get out of my house for the first time because I and my mother aren't tolerating his bastard attitude and abuse any longer.
