Studies over the past few decades have shown married women closing "the infidelity gap." Female cheaters don't outnumber male ones just yet, but they're getting there. The question, though, is this: Are women cheating (proportionately) more than they did or are they just more willing to admit it on an anonymous survey? This study suggests the latter.

It also chronicles changes in the rate of marital infidelity, also called adultery in more archaic settings. Aside from more young married women cheating on their partners, the most striking result is that more older people are involved

Weight gain and moodiness top the list of the unpleasant side effects of birth control pills. But could the pill also desensitize a woman's sniffer? New research suggests that oral contraceptives can reduce a woman's ability to smell the best mate. Although birth control can't be blamed for every bad relationship, the findings could help explain how people find their ideal love.

Most guys splash on a little cologne before a first date, but past research shows that their natural scent may be the better attractant

When Vermont legalized gay marriage, psychologists jumped on the opportunity to study human relationships. About a thousand heterosexual and homosexual couples participated in a study on relationships.

In general, homosexual relationships were more egalitarian, whereas in heterosexual ones the women got a disproportionate amount of the housework (and initiating conversations about relationship upkeep) and the men got a disproportionate amount of the financial responsibility. In addition, the homosexual couples argued better

Child development experts are scrutinizing a new study that suggests the size of small, almond-shaped structures in the center of the brain known as the amygdalae may hold the key to how aggressive teens behave toward their parents. But researchers at the University of Melbourne's Orygen Research Center in Australia report that these areas of the brain may have a special link when it comes to teens who regularly fight with their parents.

Peer reviewing the modern-day matchmaker: online dating sites begin to publish studies

Darkfrog submitted, created time 10 months 1 day (www.nytimes.com)

eHarmony.com and Chemistry.com in particular are dying to be able to advertise their dating algorithms as "scientifically proven." And after years in the online dating market, they finally have enough data to perform, write and publish sociological studies.

But will these studies be the real thing? So far, eHarmony's only got one out there, despite having enough data for more. For all that these companies claim to want to be peer reviewed, I get the impression that they're being awfully selective with the information that they release.

What scientists, not to mention the rest of us, want to know is, "Why?" What makes us go so loony over love? Why would we bother with this elaborate exercise in fan dances and flirtations, winking and signaling, joy and sorrow?

Darkfrog submitted, created time 11 months 12 hours (www.nytimes.com)

This article is as much about politics and attitude as it is about the new flash-freezing method, called vitrification, that allows women to preserve their genetic material without settling on a sperm donor or real-life partner first. The scientists in this article claim that the flash-freezing of unfertilized human ova, a relatively new process that improves the survival rate over conventional freezing, will "emancipate women as much as the birth control pill did in 1960
