Archives of Sexual Behavior, 2017 In Australia and Canada, the sexual health needs of migrant and refugee women have been of increasing concern, because of their underutilization of sexual health services and higher rate of sexual health problems.

Synergy from reproductive division of labor and genetic complexity drive the evolution of sex [PDF]
J Biol Phys (2018). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10867-018-9485-8, 2017 Computer experiments that mirror the evolutionary dynamics of sexual and asexual organisms as they occur in nature, tested features proposed to explain the evolution of sexual recombination. Results show that this evolution is better described as a network of interactions between possible sexual forms, including diploidy, thelytoky, facultative sex ...

Mathematical models of SIR disease spread with combined non-sexual and sexual transmission routes [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The emergence of diseases such as Zika and Ebola has highlighted the need to understand the role of sexual transmission in the spread of diseases with a primarily non-sexual transmission route. In this paper we develop a number of low-dimensional models which are appropriate for a range of assumptions for how a disease will spread if it has sexual ...

Sex and hermaphroditism in the Penna model [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 No abstract given. Confirms earlier simulatiobns of the self-organization of dominance in the sexual Penna model, and the advantage of hermaphroditic over sexual reproduction.

#MeToo on Campus: Studying College Sexual Assault at Scale Using Data Reported on Social Media [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Recently, the emergence of the #MeToo trend on social media has empowered thousands of people to share their own sexual harassment experiences. This viral trend, in conjunction with the massive personal information and content available on Twitter, presents a promising opportunity to extract data driven insights to complement the ongoing survey based ...

Sexual replication in the quasispecies model [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 This paper develops a simplified model for sexual replication within the quasispecies formalism. We assume that the genomes of the replicating organisms are two-chromosomed and diploid, and that the fitness is determined by the number of chromosomes that are identical to a given master sequence. We also assume that there is a cost to sexual replication,

Partition test and sexual motivation in male mice [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Theoretical analysis of own and literature investigations of sexual motivation with the use of the partition test [Kudryavtseva, 1987, 1994] in male mice was carried out. It has been shown that appearance of a receptive female in the neighboring compartment of common cage separated by perforated transparent partition produces the enhancement of ...

A neutral model can explain geographic patterns of sexual and asexual individuals [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 Many species reproduce both sexually and asexually producing genetically unique and clonal recruits. The relative contribution of sexual and asexual reproduction is mostly considered a consequence of natural selection, for example, disfavouring sexual propagules during invasions.

A Replication Study: Machine Learning Models Are Capable of Predicting Sexual Orientation From Facial Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Recent research used machine learning methods to predict a person's sexual orientation from their photograph (Wang and Kosinski, 2017). To verify this result, two of these models are replicated, one based on a deep neural network (DNN) and one on facial morphology (FM).
