在阿尔弗莱德•金赛（译者注：20世纪美国著名的生物学家和人类性学科学研究者。）时代之后的第一次大规模性行为试验，发生在2009年夏天。一位波士顿的博士生Ogi Ogas吃完一碗意大利面之后，去拜访与他同住一栋公寓楼邻居，邻居夫妇正在收邮件。他与他们并不熟悉，但是他觉得应该尝试一下。Ogas问他们是否愿意为他正在从事的一项研究“帮帮忙”——一项大规模的性行为调查。这对夫妇拘谨地笑了，但他们表示有点兴趣。48个小时之后，三个人挤在一张红色的沙发上分享面条、红酒和一个内容极为丰富的同性恋网站。一个巨幅索菲亚•罗兰（译者注：意大利性感女演员。）海报挂在后面的墙上，他们的狗依偎在三人的足边。他们要保持这个姿势5个小时。
对Ogas这个40岁的计算机神经科学家来说（他有一个女朋友），这算不上是享受，也不是他平常热衷的娱乐方式。当Ogas的同学们都在忙着编写计算机代码时，他和朋友Sai Gaddam却总是在讨论性。尤其是，大脑如何判断哪些是激发性欲的因素。Ogas说：“在我们的研究领域中，没有人关注性欲的问题——几乎所有的同事都认为我们是疯了。但是，适用于解释人类高端认知能力的神经学原理，也应当同样适用于性行为。”
于是就开始了“世界上最大规模的人类性行为试验”，就像有关这次试验的新书名字一样——十亿个邪恶的念头。经过分析十亿个匿名的网络搜索内容，Ogas和Gaddam表示他们基本锁定了1亿人的性行为方式。
没那么怪异
人们能够想象到的任何事，都可以在色情网站上找到对应的内容。但这并不是说大部分人都热衷搜索怪异的行为。实际上，最常见的色情搜索内容都是相对传统的，其中20个关键字占据了搜索量的80％。最常用的关键字是什么？“年轻”。
男性机器
作者说，男人观察女性的身体时会极为兴奋。一个计算机工程师或许会把男人的大脑称为“或逻辑”——受单一刺激就可以呈开启状态的设备。Ogas说：“激起男人的性欲不需要太复杂的东西。”乳房、女性的亲吻、女性臀部的新闻照片都能起到完美的效果。
女孩没那么简单
如果想要讲得明白一些，女人性欲大脑的化学组成要比男人复杂得多——充满了各种各样的电线，需要多方位刺激才能呈开启状态。仅靠一张轮廓分明的脸和六块腹肌无法对大多数女性起作用，他们同样需要情绪方面的刺激。复杂，但极为诱人。
男人与网络色情
1亿——2008年登录色情网站的美国和加拿大男人数量。
内衣尺寸
C罩杯——这是根据法国一家夜店的研究得出最能吸引男人的内衣尺寸。
体重偏好
3比1——登录色情网站的男人中，喜欢稍胖女性的男人数量与喜欢稍瘦女性的男人数量之比。
原文：
The first experiment in the most intensive study on sex since the days of Alfred Kinsey took place in the summer of 2009 over a bowl of spaghetti. Ogi Ogas, a Boston Ph.D. student, had run into a neighbor couple in the lobby of his apartment complex as they were picking up their mail. He didn't know them well but figured it was worth a shot: Ogas asked if they might "help" with a study he was conducting—a massive survey about sex. The couple laughed nervously. But they were intrigued. Forty-eight hours later, the three men sat sandwiched on a red vinyl couch, sharing pasta, red wine, and a marathon session of gay porn. A giant silk-screen of Sophia Loren hung in the background; the couple's pug nuzzled at the trio's feet. They would remain in this position for five hours.
It wasn't an orgy, nor was it typical entertainment for Ogas, a 40-year-old computational neuroscientist (who has a girlfriend). But while Ogas's fellow doctoral students were busy writing computer code, he and his buddy Sai Gaddam simply couldn't stop talking about sex. Specifically, how the brain decides what turns us on. "Nobody in our field had taken a shot at sexual desire—and most of our colleagues thought we were insane to do it," Ogas says. "But the same neural principles that apply to our higher cognitive functions apply to sexual behavior, too."
And so began the "world's largest experiment" in human sexuality, as the first-time authors call it in their new book, A Billion Wicked Thoughts. Analyzing the results of a billion anonymous Web searches, Ogas and Gaddam claim to have determined the sexual behavior of more than 100 million people.
Not So Kinky
Anything anyone can possibly imagine is supposed to be available in online porn. But that doesn't mean it's those niche kinks that most people are searching for. In fact, the most popular erotic searches are relatively conventional, with just 20 interests accounting for 80 percent of all searches. The most popular? "Youth."
The Male Machine
The authors say men are wired to view women's anatomy as objects. A computer engineer would say the male brain is like an "OR gate"—a machine turned on by any single stimulus. "It doesn't take much to trigger male arousal," Ogas says. Breasts, women kissing, a news photo of a woman's bottom—they pretty much all do the trick.
Girls Aren't Easy
To figure out, that is. A woman's sexual brain chemistry is far more complex than a man's—chock-full of wires that require multiple stimuli to get turned on. A chiseled face or six-pack abs simply won't do it for most women: they need to be emotionally turned on, too. Complicated, but oh-so-alluring.
