What do nosebleeds have to do with perversion?

I'm sure you've all seen it; characters in anime, upon acting perverted, suddenly get a nosebleed, usually a very large one, and the nosebleed sometimes causes them to fly a great distance.

What is the connection between nosebleeds and perversion? Does anyone know? I don't get it. Last time I was feeling perverted, my nose wasn't bleeding. My nose has never bled when I've felt perverted. Maybe I'm weird, and maybe most people really do get nosebleeds when they act perverted. Has this happened to anyone? And if it's not something usual, do any of you have any idea why anime creators almost always associate nosebleeds with perversion?

It probably is just a joke, but I'm curious as to where the joke originated from. I mean, did some guy just randomly decide one day to say "Japanese people get nosebleeds when they act perverted"?

I dunno. I remember Kijo posted a wiki link to the answer in a topic a while back though.
Thanks for the banner, silverdrop!

Yeah I actually did have a nosebleed while watching Girls Bravo, but I think that was just coincidence.

Probably. I was just wondering if there was any real reasoning to the nosebleed thing.

Yeah, like 'F said. It's just a Japanese myth, like sneezing when someone is talking about you.

I can scientifically prove that boredom can kill you. However, by the time I figure out how to prove it, I'd have already died of boredom.

Yep, or at least I'm pretty sure it does.

It's one of those things... like, a famous person does it, and it's a weird coincidence, so someone starts a joke about it... you know?

I have to agree with GC here.

Yeah, the sneeze thing was mentioned in Yu Yu Hakusho years ago, and the nosebleeds probably stemmed from the blood vessels pumping more blood for an erection.

I miss Yu Yu Hakusho, I missed the entire last season and the end of the previous season, along with various episodes in the middle of the series... They started airing it at 3 in the morning, and I didn't know until the last couple of episodes, and then my timer recording messed up and I missed the final episode, and I can't find Yu Yu Hakusho episodes hosted anywhere on the internet so now I'm stuck forever without knowing what happened!
