Ron Jeremy Not Into Animal Sex At University Research Facilities
Written by Vegetarian Star on December 10th, 2013 in Actors, Animal Issues.
Ron Jeremy is usually very into sex.
So much he’s been ranked as one of the “50 Greatest Porn Stars of all Time.”
But when it comes to sex, he’d rather watch humans than learn about animals in laboratories any day.
The adult film star recently spoke out against several experiments funded by the National Institutes of Health that examined sexual organs and behaviors of animals.
Johns Hopkins University, for example, cut all the skin off live mice’s and rats’ penises.
A guaranteed way to turn anyone on.
They then electrically stimulated the organs for five minutes, and injected the animals with chemicals to see if they could sustain an erection.
Does this mean a cheaper Viagra (a pill that treats a condition also treatable with weight loss and better cardiovascular health–something helped by a plant-based diet) is on its way to the market?
Jeremy doesn’t think so.
“When people across the country are struggling to meet rising health-care costs, why is the NIH putting up millions of dollars to fund hard-ons for rodents?” Jeremy asks.
