chapter overlaps
Hi nat, i'm doing the 'motivation and relationships' chapter. Just getting back to you on my topics...i've defined the scope of my research in the first section (This chapter will focus on mate selection for the heterosexual population with the majority of research centred around American and European studies). This is because there is a LOT of research just in this area, a lot of it is also very heavy with the scientific jargon! Also, i felt the 'sexual orientation' page covered what i'm not ;). Please, please feel free to cover anything you like and link back to mine, i'm going to link to the 'sexual orientation' page and yours. i'll also be sure to cover friendships, a lot of the theories of 'similarity' and Byrnes 'Law of Attraction' (1971) cover friendships. Why would be mate with/be friends with people we disagree with?!....maybe short term but research suggests long term its unsuccessfulU3049223 (discuss • contribs) 11:50, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Suggestion for research
Hi, I thought this article may be of interest Davis, D., Shaver, P. R., & Vernon, M. L. (2004). Attachment style and subjective motivations for sex. Personality & Social Psychology Bulletin, 30(8), 1076-1090. Link Here Peg93 (discuss • contribs) 12:03, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Feedback on chapter plan

 * Excellent-looking structure
 * Note that headings (by Wikiversity convention) should be in lower case (check)
 * I've added a few other suggested generic headings

celibacy
Hello there! I realise you already have a lot of information to get through, but I thought in the section 'what turns us off' you could talk about celibacy? It's just a suggestion, i realise you could talk about so many things, but I found this article "What is a life without sex like?" and it's from the point of priests, which i thought was interesting. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/8644120.stm Hope I've helped, and good luck with the chapter!

Hey! The outline of your chapter looks great so far, perhaps the overview section would look better above the table of contents so that it is the first thing your readers get to read. And perhaps some pictures but I'm sure that's coming. Good luck!

Idea for your chapter :)
Hi there, I was just wondering if you're going to talk about why sexual activity tends to reduce in long term relationships, or the couple are not interested in it as much as the beginning of the relationship, etc... I would be interested in reading about that. Your chapter should be good though, looking forward to reading it. :)Bilbo Baggins (discuss • contribs)

Feedback
Hey, just letting you know I've linked to your chapter from my chapter on oxytocin and emotion. Maybe not directly relevant but I thought it might be a nice addition because really, why not?

Looking very good so far. You've got pretty much everything covered. Only suggestion would be to include a few images, and maybe discuss views of sex in different cultures, such as pre-marital sex, although this might be a bit too unrelated to the whole idea of sexual motivation to fit into the word limit.

Good luck! Clarev (discuss • contribs) 11:55, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

how to get more sex ? criticism
Hey Nat,

I love your structures of the wiki page! It's very logical and good flow!

One thing that I have noticed is that - it may be good to mention in introduction why your chapter explores how to get more sex.

For example, why getting more sex is important in your life.

Additionally,

you can think about if there is any disadvantages of getting more sex.

Hope this helps!

I am sorry if you were going to put all the things I have mentioned!

Good luck on the rest of your wiki,

You can do it !!! :D
