    Both men and women achieved greater sexual satisfaction from extra-pair copulations than from partnered sex. https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2019-22928-001 …pic.twitter.com/0HeDN7WX2O

        Rolf, you should post a demonstrably false article with glaring errors that confirms right-wing biases, then a day or two later reveal the error. I’ll donate $100 to your PayPal if a right winger on twitter identifies and corrects the error to your satisfaction.

        I don't like the insinuation that my posts are led by political bias. I strive for thought provoking findings, best from peer reviewed journals, make the community of informed readers discuss its merits. And this one (which I have doubts about) will most displease the religious.

        Ugly. I wonder if this also holds true of polyamorous people, where the person’s partner is complicit in the extrapair coupling. I feel like most of the added enjoyment comes from the thrill of transgression

        This is what I was wondering. Is there a way we can distinguish the excitement of illicit behaviour from this result?

        Clearly they failed at mate selection in the first place.

        Why did that feel better? Never underestimate the power of self-justification. Maybe they could focus this motivation on their partners instead of anyone else.
