Scientists have created a body map, showing exactly where people do and don’t like to be touched.
More than 1,300 people responded to Oxford university and Finland’s Aalto university survey that asked where they were comfortable being touched and by whom.
The results, compiled into a “body map index” and published on Monday by PNAS (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in America), found men were far more comfortable with physical contact than women, with the single exception of contact with male friends.
The majority of women told researchers the only part of their body they were comfortable with male strangers touching were their hands.
In comparison, men claimed to be more at ease with a female stranger touching any part of their body, including their genitals, than a relative.

so, males have no "taboo zone" for strangers?

How much did they spend to find this out? I could've told you this for much cheaper.

Was this poll performed in Alabama?
Posted on 10/27/15 at 12:08 pm to TheJones
So we'll let pretty much any female touch our junk
Posted on 10/27/15 at 12:10 pm to TheJones
Wtf...so according to this, if your sister tugs on your junk, it's less taboo than your girl cousin.

If they had just drawn boobs and dicks on the figures, this would be a lot less confusing

Because this survey was done about normal people, the way God intended
Posted on 10/27/15 at 12:15 pm to TheJones
All I see is that people are fairly comfortable getting their arse grabbed as long as its not their uncle, cousin, or stranger.

This. And the female cousin taboo zone is significantly smaller than the male taboo zone, front and back.
The study should have clarified if this was same sex cousins or not.

But, they should have had responses from both males and females. I'm sure the responses would be different.
