Women’s desire is inversely proportional to their sense of security in a relationship

Every time I post about men wanting more sex in a relationship, some self-proclaimed exception to the rule has to chime in about how her husband won’t do her to a tender turn.  There is truth to the claim that the number one complaint men have is not getting enough sex from their wives however.  [...]

Further evidence that fertile women are on the make

I’ve pointed this fact out before but it bears reiteration.  Women at the peak of their fertility are the most likely group to be attracted to Alpha males for short-term encounters.  They identify them by their scent and secondary sexual characteristics that demonstrate high testosterone levels. In times past, prior to electric light and hormonal [...]

Armed and Dangerous: Warrior gene linked to violent behavior

Dominant men are prone to violence and aggression. There are doubtless many biological bases for this, including testosterone and nitric oxide levels.

A study on mice found that inhibition of nitric oxide, a neurotransmitter, led to increased aggression, often fatal between males.  Another effect was persistent sexual advances even where females were not receptive.  It seems that both of these behaviors are linked: Johns Hopkins University scientists have discovered a genetic basis for violent and excessive sexual [...]

It’s no secret: residents of developed nations are getting mightily fat.  I notice this more with every passing day it seems.  It used to be presumed that people would put on weight with age.  This age-related weight gain was considered normal, although health experts and nutritionists know that this doesn’t have to be the case.  [...]

A Woman’s Ability to Climax is a Proxy for Intelligence?

There goes the argument that it’s always male ineptitude in bed that causes women to lose interest in sex.  Putting that myth to rest is long past due.  Now that I have your attention though, the title is in truth a bit of a misnomer.  The source, while interesting, fails to distinguish between quantifiable cognitive [...]
