| NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) --
Talk about courting lawsuits: The holiday season is also the time when
most sexual harassment suits are filed. That's the verdict from sexual harassment attorney Philip Berkowitz, who says most of the suits are filed because of activities at wild office parties. Berkowitz says the alcohol and unsupervised setting create a scenario where employers get a little randy and put the moves on employees. Although standing under mistletoe is relatively safe, Berkowitz says everything else -- including offering a woman a massage or dragging a man on the dance floor against his will -- could be a potential lawsuit. It isn't just women who are the victims of the office party sex harassment. These days, Berkowitz says modern businesswomen raised on "Dynasty" and "Melrose Place" see no problem with abusing their power to get sex and, as a result, more men are filing sex harassment suits. |

| One ancient Arab sex superstition said that
you shouldn't leave your penis in a woman's vulva after ejaculation,

| Caligula, the much-maligned X-rated epic about the Roman Emperor's debauchery, cost a reported $17 million to create, making it the most expensive porno to date, even if by today's standards, it's pretty tame fare. | The renowned 18th century French actress Mlle. Dubois, made a catalog of all her lovers over a 20-year period, and the final tally proves to be a number that'd make Wilt Chamberlain blush: 16,527 individuals, which works out to about three per day - and that was just during that particular 20-year period. |
