Don’t worry about the end result

29-Dec-07

Research reveals that female monkeys shout during sex
to help their male partners climax. Helpful ladies, one must say.

Not just Shashwat, other photographers also have a great time. The other day I was waiting for my passport photograph to be taken at a studio, and I heard a boy […]
