EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SEX AND RELATIONSHIPS INCLUDING CHEATING - Part One of Two

Women who carry certain variants of the vasopressin receptor gene are much more likely to engage in “extra pair bonding,” the scientific euphemism for sexual infidelity – cheating. A psychologist at the University of Queensland, Australia, has tried to determine whether some people are just more inclined toward infidelity. His study found a significant association between five different variants of the vasopressin gene and infidelity – cheating -- in women. Forty percent of the variation in promiscuous behavior in women could be attributed to genes. So men, should you have your girlfriend tested for this gene before you get married? The answers to this and other pressing questions are to be found in this week’s episode!As its CEO Randolph Pitts turned a small, new film production company, Lumière Films, Inc., into the most successful independent producer/financier in Hollywood, best known for the multi-award winning film "Leaving Las Vegas", for which Nicolas Cage won the Oscar as Best Actor.

Pitts' spellbinding novels deal at an unrelenting fever pitch with eroticism, mysticism, terrorism and crime on a global scale. And also… with women and men falling in love. Advance praise for one of Randolph Pitts' novels: "A sexy thriller that shows New York City in the grip of terrorists, natural disasters and voodoo magic, while at the same time being a moving meditation on love, sensuality, and twenty-first century man's fate in the universe. Possibly the greatest novel of our time. I am going to nominate it for the Pulitzer Prize."Intermission music: Excerpt from “Der Shatten Eines Traumes” by your host.
