    A new study has just revealed what we all knew all along. Men are natural faithful and simply led astray by women. :D
    The results of the study showed that men were more attracted to a woman when being told she was single, while the opposite was found in women, who seemed to be more attracted to married men.

    Most blokes could have told you that though.

    I believe the technical term is the FOFT.
    (feast or famine theory)

    Single - no woman will look at you.
    Attached - suddenly you become much more attractive.

    Ive experienced and seen this first hand.

    I'm going to get fleeced if my missus reads this, but I genuinely think there is some weight behind the theory that, in order to best pass on your DNA, a mans instincts are to have as many partners as possible, and a womans is to have one. If you strip away all thoughts of morality and conscience, that theory just fits, for me. I wonder is a womans attraction to a man subconsciously increased because she knows he already attracted a mate?
    We're just bags of meat reacting to electrical and chemical stimuli really :D

    Not really. A woman needs a man to raise, protect and provide for her children, and a man to give her children good DNA. These do not have to be the same man... :eek:

    Some studies say that up to 30% of children are not the children of the father named on the birth cerificate.
