I'm not trying to be witty or doing this for comedic purposes, but Jesus Christ... I've only ever seen this meme. I've never looked into the article. That being said it is slightly hilarious that the author decided to add that bit about never seeing someone naked before and then "strange erotic sensations".
It makes more sense when you look at the rest of site. It's a "satire" news site. It's not a real story.
I thought "That doesn't sound like something a real journalist would write", and sure enough... Scroll down to the bottom, and you find
Am I the only one completely exhausted with "satire" news? We have enough misinformation as it is, and now we know how dangerous it can be. It's not funny anymore.
It’s one thing when the site is obviously satire but they’re clearly trying to appear as a real news site. It’s so unnecessary
It's necessary to get them clicks.
