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."

Dear Amanda,
Please contact me offline. Although I will be straight forward and admit right away that I can't cure you, I still have something that might help you live an happier life with the syndrome.
Truly yours,
Everything I write is lies, read between the lines.

Woman Claims Wii Fit Caused Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome
And now the obligatory: Correlation doesn't mean causation.
The question is whether to post warning or pitch it as a benefit of using the Wii Fit. With the right ad they could be harder to find than a Tickle Me Elmo.

Have some compassion.
Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome is very real. Imagine having an itch that you could never scratch away. An itch that was always there. Now, replace that itch with an erection and a desire to release your semen storage 24/7.
I went through 4 years of it in high-school, and would not wish it upon my worst enemy.

This is hardly news, or related to Wii fit.

Uhm, wait a second, this is Slashdot, we aren't supposed to talk about how we meet lovely women and sleep with them. We're supposed to all be bitter about having never gotten laid. Way to end the stereotypes!

This is the first and only time a woman will complain of having too many orgasms.
This is definitely possible. I don't understand the slightly derogatory tone in the article/summary.
Well, the derogatory tone in the article is par for the course for this particular rag. I think there is some kind of a rule that the Daily Star, the Daily Mail and a few others have to publish at least one perpetual arousal symptom story per month (the sufferer is always young, female and unattached). Then there is the story about the adulterer, from the mistress' point of view but trashing her nevertheless, the fat lady trying every diet possible story... etc. These stories are all pretty sordid, sad and derogatory toward women. I hate them, but they have a very distinct, disturbing pull...
And finally, since I'm on a rant, TFA isn't even an article, it's a friggin' blurb advertising an article in a magazine!
Seriously.

No that would be called a zero sum game, nothing lost for trying.

Q. What do you call a "male nymphomaniac"?
A. Redundant.
I bet once she sees some Slashdotters, any sexual arousal she might suffer from will quickly recede.

Taking the braces off is a good first step to resolving the particular issue, though....

I have also been known to cause persistent sexual arousal syndrome (PSAS) in females of the opposite sex.
It's been my cross to bear since I was in the fifth grade and had to fight off Miss DeLisi, my teacher, who looked a lot like a young Kelly LeBrock.
It's only gotten worse since I became a professional golfer. I've learned to deal with it by lowering my standards way, way down.
You are welcome on my lawn.
This is such a blatant SLASHVERTISEMENT!!!

I know firsthand what a terrible affliction this can be. I am male and suffer the same uncomfortable, social stigma of constant sexual arousal. After watching this Intel core i7 unboxing on YouTube. The moneyshot it that heatsink! I am nearly there....
In post Patriot Act America, the library books scan you.
But have you considered what fresh hell it must be for her? She has to exist with a condition that best leaves her unable to control how/when she experiences sexual desire. And unlike guys, she can't just "ignore it." It would be like walking around with a boner that won't go down. It would be socially painful to do anything normal, go watch kids on a playground for example. Can you imagine the pure humilation she experiances when she doesn't have control over her body?

Wow. You seriously, SERIOUSLY need to take women off that pedestal you've been building since you typed that first DOS command. You probably see your mother (and all women) as being perfect angels with (in your words) "a more holy purpose in life". You're going to be confused, angry, lonely and upset until you realise that you, me, and everyone else on this rock (even women) are mammals, and we just LOVE to get down and dirty once in a while. People love sex, because the ones that didn't love sex didn't have babies. Humans are always at least 25% about sex, and that goes up to 100% once feeding, fighting, and fleeing are taken care of. "Sinful activities"? Please.
Think about this for a moment: Your mum probably likes it up the ass occasionally. Did that make you angry? That's because you think of her as some magical ideal, and not as a living breathing passionate person who gave birth to you after a lot of passionate sex.

What is this "women" thing of which you speak?
This ain't rocket surgery.
I read that post (probably by the same author as the GGP) long enough to say:

There is a very horny lady (like the one in the article) who desperately needed an "aid".
Lady: "Show me all the dildos"
Salesman: "We have a very big selection in this aisle"
Lady: "Show me the biggest ones"
Salesman: "Sure, in the right wall you can find the biggest dildos"
Lady: "oooh, I like what I see. I'm taking the red one"
Salesman: "You mean the huge red one hanging on the wall? That is not for sale!"
Lady: "YES, I WANT IT! WHY NOT?"
Salesman: "Uhm... that's a fire extinguisher."
Hopefully one day I’ll find a superstud who can satisfy me.
Ah now I understand... The old I-want-sex-all-the-time trick to get men.
Maybe. However, It is a real thing, and from what I understand is debilitating, humiliating, and doesn't necessarily lead to the woman becoming a nympho.
In fact, I'm kind of surprised -- even on Slashdot, I'd expect someone to have picked that up somewhere, rather than just assuming this is a good thing. That seems a bit on par with taking advantage of someone's mental disorder...
Don't thank God, thank a doctor!

This is Slashdot. Around here, an STD should be worn like a medal. "Hey, guys, I've had sex, AND I can prove it!"
different people have different libidos. We don't have to kill each other over it.
Killing is unavoidable for necrophiliacs with persistent arousal syndrome...

Why? It seems most people come here in their work time, so having a wife/girlfriend or not should really make a difference. Unless having a wife/gf changes nerds habits and they start logging to Facebook and growing virtual carrots instead of logging to /. and make ignorant rants.
I usually log on to /. during classes, so my time for socializing isn't affected.

It's more severe than I thought. She's turning into a teenage boy.
