Erotic images elicit strong response from brain

Red zones in this brain map suggest frontal parts of the brain are particularly sensitive to erotic content.A new study suggests the brain is quickly turned on and “tuned in” when a person views erotic images. Researchers at the School of Medicine measured brainwave activity in women as they viewed a series of slides that contained various scenes from water skiers to snarling dogs to partially-clad couples in sensual poses. When study volunteers viewed erotic pictures, their brains produced electrical responses that were stronger than those elicited by other material, no matter how pleasant or disturbing the other material may have been.
