Basically the principal that
men are more sexually attracted and aroused to new females after a certain amount of
time. The term comes from an old joke according to which President Calvin Coolidge and his wife were at a government farm one day and were taken around on separate tours. Mrs. Coolidge, passing the chicken pens, inquired of a supervisor whether the lone rooster was sufficient, given the many hens in the chicken flock.
"
Yes", the man said, "the rooster works very
hard."
Mrs. Coolidge then asked, "Really? The rooster works very
hard? Every day?"
"Oh,
yes," the man said. "Dozens of times a day."
"Interesting!" Mrs. Coolidge replied, "Be sure to tell that to the President!"
Some
time later the President, passing the same pens, was told about the roosters - and about his wife's remark. "Same hen every
time?", he asked.
"Oh, no, a different one each
time," the supervisor replied.
"Tell that," Coolidge said with a sly nod, "to Mrs. Coolidge."
The Coolidge comes into effect in the porno industry, where 'Fluffers' are used to get male porn stars erect before a scene, if they've been with the main actress so
long.
