che chiameremo evolutivo ci permette di dare risposta a una serie di interrogativi a cui l'umanità ha cercato di rispondere da sempre e che fanno riferimento alla sessualità, alla coppia e alla seduzione: Cosa vogliono gli uomini? Cosa vogliono le donne? A cosa serve il sesso? Che strategia riproduttiva usa l'uomo? Che strategia riproduttiva usa la donna? Qual è l'obiettivo del corteggiamento? Cosa posso fare come donna per scegliere meglio? Perchè l'amore chiede sempre di più e non ottiene mai abbastanza? Perchè la selezione sessuale è un processo che non possiamo spiegare? Perchè ciò che è attraente per alcuni non lo è per altri? Perchè i nostri geni hanno scelto il sesso come meccanismo di riproduzione? Come possiamo migliorare le nostre capacità di seduzione? Come facciamo per essere quel che vogliamo essere? Come facciamo per mostrare la miglior versione di noi stessi? Perchè il pene ha la forma che ha? Perchè il prepuzio? Le dimensioni contano? Perchè il glande? Cosa è successo al baculum (osso interno del pene)? Cosa guardano le donne quando realizzano la loro selezione sessuale? Cosa attrae gli uomini? Come funziona la selezione sessuale? Perchè gli uomini a volte si innamorano solo con lo sguardo? Perchè le donne hanno bisogno di parlare per innamorarsi? Perchè le donne sono attratte da uomini che regalano loro diamanti? Perchè ai pavoni femmine piacciono i pavoni maschi con code grandi? Perchè siamo infedeli? Perchè tutti siamo contrari all'infedeltà ma tutti la pratichiamo o ci fantastichiamo sopra? Perchè l'attrazione ad essere infedeli è quasi irresistibile? PerchèSatisFaction: Erotic Fantasies for the Advanced & Adventurous Couple.
