Are men cheaters?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
So what do you make of this discovery? Men are more likely to be devoted and loyal husbands when they lack a particular variant of a gene that influences brain activity, researchers announced Monday — the first time that science has shown a direct link between a man’s genes and his aptitude for monogamy.
The finding is striking because it not only links the gene variant — which is present in two of every five men — with the risk of marital discord and divorce, but also appears to predict whether women involved with these men are likely to say their partners are emotionally close and available, or distant and disagreeable.
What say you?
