It's just off-putting to be baited this way and that with certain subjects (biology, genetics, symantics) only to be pounced on with a contradiction. It's a big "who knows more trivia than the other?" debate.
The book by Olivia Judson is required reading for the Sexual Behaviour class at the University of Toronto and has a humorous vein that makes it enjoyable to read but everything is backed up by scientific fact. But you assume it is a humor book before you even looked it up. You say that if we questioned everything that is supposed scientific fact then nothing would ever get done but it seems that every detailed fact can be contradicted with another one. It's not that I don't want to hear them- well, it's just because I disagree. I could say the same for you.
I just don't want to see girls settling for less when they can have someone on the same level as them. It's really, really hard to maintain that kind of relationship but it's very worth it. (chemi has the right idea)

Ok, agreed to disagree..
But I have to add that I am merely stating facts.. I am not advocating 'cheating' in any means. I am seperating facts from our own human 'morals'.
A lot of times when I state facts, people misunderstand and thinks I am advocating this or that. I have personally never cheated on my girlfriends...
The only things I have said and stand by (and you can research this to death and you'll arrive at the same conclusion if only you put aside your emotions), are the following:
1. Men do not equate sex with love. They can easily have sex with multiple partners and still love their wives just as much. (When I say 'men', I mean men in general, say about 80%). Also men have very little control when it comes to sex because of the incredible hormonal drive. It's an uphill battle that most men fail. Women can pass judgement on men as they will, but in reality, they way men are is the way they are made...
2. Women equate sex with love and emotions. Women in general cannot just have sex with strangers.
3. Men cheats (in general, say about 80% or higher). This is just FACT. You can disagree with the notion of cheating in general (as do I), but the fact is men do cheat... so, what do you do about it? Kill the men who cheats? Divorce them? it's all up to you...
And thus, we have a fundamental physical differences between men and women that have confounded the sexes over the centuries and caused endless arguments and heartaches....
Those are the reality.
