Breast is best for many reasons, but new research shows that it can affect a child well into their teenage years. The British study compared over 10,000 children, who were matched for significant factors, such as maternal IQ and family circumstances. The only difference was whether or not the child was exclusively breastfed. The intelligence ...
One of the best thing you can do for your relationship is to be a feminist. The women are happier in the partnership, but so are the men. They reported more stable relationships with greater sexual satisfaction. Researchers from Rutgers University surveyed 242 undergraduates and 289 older people about the quality of their romances, feminism, ...
The more you drink the more likely you are to exercise, recent studies suggest. Alcoholic mice were divided into two groups — one with wheels in their cages and one without. After three weeks both groups were allowed unlimited access to alcohol. The exercising rats partied harder than the sedentary ones, confusing the researchers. But ...
Doctors have been saying for years that the study linking autism to the Measles, Mumps and Rubella vaccine is not good science. Now an investigation reveals it was actually an elaborate fraud. Every one of the 12 cases upon which Andrew Wakefield built his 1998 study contained factual errors. Some of the children had behavioural ...
Working mothers are fine — mostly, a new study has revealed. Researchers looked at the results of 69 studies which were conducted between 1960 and 2010 and concluded that a working mother was a benefit to some families, as long as she didn’t have a career. The results varied based on the socio-economic make-up of ...
Yuck! Who would be addicted to semen? Apparently, your vagina. Women who have regular unprotected sex can become depressed when they go through dry-spells, according to a study of 300 women by New York State University. However, they are less likely to be depressed, or commit suicide, than the women who regularly use condoms. The ...
The shocking results of the study are in — the fatter the man, the longer his erection lasts. Heavier men averaged 7.3 minutes before the party was over. Compare that to the 1.8 minutes the slimmer men were able to sustain. The information was compiled from researchers at Erciyes University, Turkey, who compared the BMI ...
Porn is considered man’s domain. For centuries they secreted their dirty images under the bed, inside novels, and passed them off to their friends with the assumption that the women in their lives would die
We knew this was coming. Period pains cause abnormal changes in brain structure, scientists have been able to show. Which makes most of us ladies, well, abnormal too. Professor Jen-Chuen Hsieh, from the Institute of Brain Science at National Yang-Ming University in Taipei, observed the changes in the gray matter, but has not yet determined ...
Oh scientists, so much brain power and so little common sense! A new study purports to show that those earth-shattering noises a woman makes during sex are designed to manipulate men. That’s right, sex for women is not about pleasure, but about control. Now where have I heard that before? A study of 71 heterosexual ...
