"Among the most sexually-experienced adolescents, there was a perception that girls and boys are equally interested in sex, which is a positive finding from the perspective of gender equality," the research has revealed. By IANS: Not just teenage boys but teenage girls also fantasise about sex in the same fashion, and better. There is no difference between boys and girls when it comes to what types of sex they fantasise about, research reveals. Also, there are no differences in the proportion of girls and boys who think that their sexual behaviour is influenced by pornography to a great extent.

Boys and girls who watch pornography have a more favourable attitude to pornography than those who do not, the researchers commented. "Among the most sexually-experienced adolescents, there was a perception that girls and boys are equally interested in sex which is a positive finding from the perspective of gender equality," explained Magdalena Mattebo from Uppsala University in Sweden. Mattebo investigated the sexual experiences and pornography consumption of more than 800 16-year-old Swedish upper-secondary school students. It was unexpected that more than every 10th girl in the group stated that they watch pornography less than they would like to. "It was also unexpected that there was no difference between girls and boys regarding fantasies about sexual acts," Mattebo added. An equal proportion of girls and boys said that pornography influences their sexual behaviour. The girls in the study were more sexually experienced than the boys when it comes to oral, vaginal and anal sex. But there were no differences between them concerning various types of sexual partners such as buddy sex, one-night-stands and group sex, the study noted. Based on traditional stereotyped gender roles, it was not surprising that the adolescents in the study had a more favourable attitude to boys having many different sex partners compared to the attitude towards girls having many different sex partner.

The study has been published in Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics.

Is it possible to fall in love twice with the same person?

It's going to sound a lot like a fairy tale but it's possible to fall in love more than once with the same person. Here, we don't mean in gaps or with breaks in the middle – we mean throughout the course of the same relationship.

timesofindia.indiatimes.com - Can we fall in love with the same person more than once?

It’s going to sound a lot like a fairy tale but it’s possible to fall in love more than once with the same person. Here, we don’t mean in gaps or with breaks in the middle – we mean throughout the course of the same relationship. Before you start feeling cynical, here’s our logic for it.Love, essentially, is WORK. It makes you feel a certain way but those feelings don’t just come on their own. This can happen while you’re dating as well. Say your partner remembered how you wanted that exact coffee in the afternoon so s/he went and got it for you – it’s the thought that counts, and that’s the moment you’ll remember why you fell in love with your partner.When you see how someone else loves you, it can make you refocus on your relationship, again. Small gestures, random acts of kindness and thoughtfulness, even after years into a relationship, can make you value your partner all over again.Falling in love is never planned, it just happens, so understanding the gravity of that intensity is always surreal and scary. You get to realise the extent of how much one person can matter to you and how much you worry for her or his well-being... It’s almost bittersweet.In terms of falling in love with breaks, that’s also possible. There are so many cases of meeting an ex after a long gap and falling in love all over again. Whether it’s your long-time partner or someone who wasn’t a part of your life for a while – the bottomline is we can rediscover love with the same person more than once.By Srijoni Roy
