      Nice guys DO finish last: Individuals with "agreeable" personality traits tend to have less frequent casual sex. http://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2Fbul0000157 …pic.twitter.com/CvmOQZcQTv

      Most men desire casual sex, there is a great deal of research about that:https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/984320163435700224 …

      The problem is that men's (sex) life is doomed by nature to not be satisfying. They are doomed to be horny. https://plus.google.com/101046916407340625977/posts/YqmDFX693No … pic.twitter.com/HYDU6kFwaQ

      Most men desire lots of things that aren't good for them. Eating junk food for example. I think we have different definition of success.

      That’s what I was trying to get at with my commentary. Having a wife (or husband whatever floats your boat), raising children together and learning the intricacies of relationships with a single partner seems MUCH more fulfilling AKA successful to me.

      Also, there are a lot of typos in the legend. Doesn’t feel professionally put together and combined with my previous comment has me curious about the methodology as well. Again, I’ll have to read the paper. Just initial thought.

      Sorry about the typos, but they are not in the original but came from the OCR engine I had to put it though. The original fonts were simply too small to be readable on Twitter. The paper is a highly acclaimed piece of work.

          Fair, that definitely makes sense. Can you address the secrecy issue I raised? Curious your thoughts there.

          Seems paradoxical to me to call something we know a secret when we have a category for ‘once was secret’
