thats pretty crazy hey! man i feel bad i got 2 pair ive matched up this year with diff head colours as a experement will be interesting to see how they go

"For too long we have looked at monogamous relationships as mostly happy cooperative ventures, but the authors have shown that females who are forced by circumstance into unsuitable pairings suffer ongoing stress,"

Such conclusions infer that males don't suffer in these relationships and are responsible for their own and thier victim's/partner's suffering. It may be politically incorrect but I think they are reading just a little bigotry into the results. If these less than "perfect" relationships didn't exist their theory might be more plausable. The fact that they are so widespread indicates that the pros far out-weigh the cons.

With all that being said. Does explain my dear wife's high stress level, all this time I thought it was the kids.

hehehehe

These Guys can't stop extrapolating from Gouldians to Humans. Have a look at http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/ ... 127835.htm!

Probably just a page filler "human interest" article, got to fit the humans in there somewhere.
Or it could be they get bigger grants if they can relate research back to humans!
