  "Researchers of the University of Central Lancashire and the University of Leeds"

  "They recruited 71 sexually active, heterosexual women, ages 18 to 48"

  I wonder how long this took, impressive so far, regardless.

  "According to the scientists, promoting male self-esteem “may strengthen the pair bond,"" etc.

  I'm not so sure these are the most advanced scientists if it took them until 2012 to figure out something which has been constant since prehistoric times. It's not so difficult that a cave man or cave woman couldn't do it.

  HN audience appears to be largely male. Looks like the guys have nothing to say about this. I, for one, have no issues with the quid pro quo nature of the noise.

  "But guys – don’t worry about this manipulating behavior. Male ejaculation that is influenced by female sex noises, seems to be all natural. In the animal kingdom, the Barbary macaque can only ejaculate while hearing sex noises with the right intensity and speed."

  From now on, whenever I have sex with a Barbary macaque, I'm going to feel like I'm being manipulated...

  That's why porn without audio is not the same.
