British couple were so noisy when having sex their neighours  couldn’t get to sleep.

The noises generated by the couple were described as “unnatural”, “hysterical” and “like they are both in considerable pain”. One local council environmental worker said it sounded as if somebody was being murdered.

The neighbours took their complains to the law courts and, the couple have now being banned from “shouting, screaming of vocalisation at such at such a level as to be a statutory nuisance”.

They sound fun.

BBC NEWS | Middle East | Egypt anger over virginity faking

Abdul Mouti Bayoumi said supplying the item was akin to spreading vice in society, a crime punishable by death in Islamic Sharia law.

The device is said to release liquid imitating blood, allowing a female to feign virginity on her wedding night.

The device is reported to be on sale in Syria for $15.

Since when does blood equal virginity, how do you reach people in countries like this? What can our country do for the people in Egypt who might not want this lifestyle imposed upon them?

Too much testosterone disrupts family life (New Scientist)

A man’s spit may indicate what kind of father and husband he is. In polygamous societies, men with high levels of testosterone in their saliva are more likely to take several wives and give their children less attention, compared to those with less of the sex hormone coursing through their bodies.

The new study of rural Senegalese villagers adds to previous work underscoring testosterone’s critical role in a mating and parenting.

High testosterone levels have been linked to increased sexual activity, infidelity and marital conflict. However, after men become fathers, their bodies typically pump out less of the hormone.

“This is good for us, so we can adapt to social challenges very quickly,” says Alexandra Alvergne, an anthropologist at the University of Montpellier, France, and the University of Sheffield, UK, who led the new study.

“I think the evidence is piling up” that testosterone affects mating and parenting in humans, says Peter Ellison, an anthropologist at Harvard University.

Genetics plays some role in determining how much testosterone men produce, but culture, fatherhood and other factors tinker with its levels over a lifetime.

“If you have a young child – a young baby – that you’re at times responsible for, it would be really good to lower your testosterone. Not only are you less likely to forget the child and pursue some other mating opportunity but your temper may be lowered,” Ellison says.

While it isn’t clear exactly how fatherhood tempers testosterone levels, Ellison and others believe that paternal behaviour feeds into the endocrine system to crank down its natural levels.

In cultures where men aren’t expected to be outstanding fathers and are constantly on the lookout for potential mates, testosterone levels tend to stay high, Ellison says. “It’s not that polygynists somehow have different genes that make them polygynists.”

Scientific proof that men look at women's breasts first and their face is almost last

Researchers found that virtually half - 47 per cent - of men first glance at a woman’s breasts.
A third of the “first fixations” are on the waist and hips, while fewer than 20 per cent look at the woman’s face.
Not only are breasts often the first thing men look at, they also glance at them for longer than any other body part, the experts discovered
It’s thought that the reason might be evolutionary, as women with  larger chests and slim waists - such as Jennifer Hawkins, Lara Bingle and Rachael Finch - have higher levels of the female hormone oestrogen, indicating greater fertility.
