I’m an evolutionary biologist and a science journalist and I like to write about the reasons behind the endless variation and quirkiness of human behaviour when it comes to sex and relationships, choosing a mate or trying to attract one, and when, if and how to have a family. In my blog you’ll find a scientific slant on topical issues around relationships and reproduction, news on scientific developments and plenty of opinion and pontificating, as well as the occasional nugget of advice. I hope you enjoy it, and please comment to share your ideas.
