An unparalleled exploration of the mysteries underlying women’s sexuality that rivals the culture-shifting Kinsey Report, from two of America’s leading research psychologists

Do women have sex simply to reproduce or display their affection? When University of Texas at Austin clinical psychologist Cindy M. Meston and evolutionary psychologist David M. Buss joined forces to investigate the underlying sexual motivations of women, what they found astonished them.

Through the voices of real women, Meston and Buss reveal the motivations that guide women’s sexual decisions and explain the deep-seated psychology and biology that often unwittingly drive women’s desires—sometimes in pursuit of health or pleasure, or sometimes for darker, disturbing reasons that a woman may not fully recognize. Drawing on more than a thousand intensive interviews conducted solely for the book, as well as their pioneering research on physiological response and evolutionary emotions, Why Women Have Sex uncovers an amazingly complex and nuanced portrait of female sexuality. They delve into the use of sex as a defensive tactic against a mate’s infidelity (protection), as a ploy to boost self-confidence (status), as a barter for gifts or household chores (resource acquisition), or as a cure for a migraine headache (medication).

Why Women Have Sexstands as the richest and deepest psychological understanding of female sexuality yet achieved and promises to inform every woman’s (and her partner’s) awareness of her relationship to sex and her sexuality.

Top Ten Proven Parenting Solutions
Content from Dr. Michele Borba

1. Get attention:Lower your voice almost to a whisper and then say your request. Kids aren’t used to a quiet request.

2. Increase positive behavior:Research shows that giving kids the right kind of praise (called“positive reinforcement”) is one of the best ways to shape new behavior. So, catch your kid doing the action you want. Just make sure your praise is specific and tells your child exactly what he did right. (Adding“because” or“that” takes your praise up a notch.“I’m so impressed that you started your homework all by yourself this time.”)

3. Stretch persistence:Praising the child’s effort (“You’re working so hard”) and not inherent intelligence (”You’re so smart”) is proven to enhance perseverance and performance, but the child is also more likely to bounce back from a mistake—all because he feels success is not mixed.

4. Reduce fear:Expose your child to a fear in small manageable doses and help them develop a statement to speak back to the worry (“Go away worry!” or“I can do this!”)

5. Curb a tantrum:The longer you give attention to a tantrum the longer it lasts. Ignore, ignore, ignore!

6. Nurture kindness:Encourage your child to use the Two Praise Rule everyday.“Say or do at least two kind things to someone.” Random acts of kindness really are catchy!

7. Increase assertiveness:Stress:“Look at the color of the talker’s eyes.” Using eye contact helps kids appear confident. Strong body posture also helps a child be less likely to be bullied.

8. Friendship builder:The two most commonly used traits of well-liked kids are“smiling” and“encouraging.” Reinforce those traits in your child to boost his friendship quotient.

9. Develop healthy eating habits.Eating relaxed family meals regularly enhances kids’ psychosocial well- being, boosts grades and deters behaviors like smoking and drinking and eating disorders as well as teaches the child healthy eating habits.

10. Curb nagging.Say "no" the first time and don’t back down. The average kid nags nine times knowing the parent will give in.
