Scientists dissect the nature of the 'booty call' - Aug 2010
While any college student knows the rules, researchers call for 'longitudinal' research on 'hybrid' relations

As relationships go, booty calls don't get the most respect, but at least they're getting researched. A new study finds that booty-call relationships ? late night calls to arrange a sexual rendezvous ? are marked by less emotion than long-term partnerships but more sexual variety than one-night stands.

The study, led by Peter Jonason, then a psychologist at the University of West Florida, surveyed almost 300 college students who had been in a variety of relationships over the past year. The results showed that booty calls mix the sexual and the emotional, but are distinct from either one-night stands or committed relationships. "Booty call was a hybrid," said Jonason, who is now a professor at the University of South Alabama. "We positioned it mostly in the middle [of sexual and romantic relationships], but we positioned it mostly on the side of sex."

Take the call
Urbandictionary.com, an online encyclopedia of slang, defines booty call as "a late night summons ? often made via telephone ? to arrange clandestine sexual liaisons on an ad hoc basis." (Warning to the curious: That definition is one of the more family-friendly entries on the site.)

blah blah blah.... something about science and shit.... more blah blah blah....

The team found that overall, emotional acts were less common in booty-call relationships compared with serious long-term relationships. On the other hand, sex acts were more common in booty-call relationships than in one-night stands, probably because the reoccurring nature of booty calls means more time for trying new things, the researchers suspect.

Whew! Glad we've got this information finally. Next they should study late-night alcohol-induced masturbation.

Interesting read.

However, I found it difficult to mentally accept the use of "booty call" and "scientific" in
the same sentence.

Almost sounds like one of those Nature episodes where they are stidying the mating habits of those nocturnal college students

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants think about that
