A Billion Wicked Thoughts

What the World's Largest Experiment Reveals about Human Desire
Book • 2011
In this book, neuroscientists Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam analyze a vast amount of online data, including web searches, erotic stories, videos, and personal ads, to understand human sexual behavior.

Their research highlights the differences between male and female sexual cues, with men's brains resembling a 'reckless hunter' and women's brains acting like a 'cautious detective agency.

' The book provides insights into why men are attracted to images and why women's desires are harder to predict, offering a revolutionary understanding of human sexuality similar to Alfred Kinsey's work in the 1950s.
