Men’s sexual desire peaks around age 40, large new study finds. Men report substantially higher sexual desire than women. Sexual desire declined with age, more steeply for women, and it was associated with a bisexual or pansexual orientation, recent childbirth, and relationship satisfaction.

Mathematicians are challenging the idea that dark energy is responsible for the accelerating expansion of the universe. A new paper provides mathematical proof that instabilities inherent in the Einstein-Euler equations imply that the current model of the expanding universe is not viable.

Authoritarians do not support democracy, populists support democracy as much as non-populists, and radical right-wing citizens are less likely to support ‘democracy’ than moderate citizens, finds a new study of 14,000 Western Europeans.
