2003 Science (Nexis) 17 Jan. 400 Our interpretations of the contributions of abdominal muscles to trunk bending and of the pectineus muscle to pelvic limb movement are conservative because we account for every muscle that attaches to the epipubic bones.

1969 D. R. Reuben Everything you always wanted to know about Sex (1970) vi. 90 A reasonable yardstick for male potency is the ability to continue intercourse for five to ten minutes. During that time a normally potent male will deliver from fifty to one hundred pelvic thrusts.
