FUCKING SUCKING & BREEDING 101

'Love and sex are profoundly based in economics,' says assistant professor Marina Adshade, who normally lectures on currency fluctuation, GDP, international monetary trends and domestic spending.'Most people would agree sex involves some form of negotiation; it involves investment and, particularly where marriage is concerned, a contract.
'There are costs and benefits to all aspects of love and sex and these are covered by economic principles.
'I could teach a course about industrial organisations and maybe only have five per cent of the students fully engaged after a while.' In contrast, she said, the Sexonomics course would be 'something they will be really interested in.'
The 12-week course is designed for second year students at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia.
The university, which includes three former Canadian Prime Ministers among its alumni, is already considering expanding the course next year because of the high level of interest.Dr Adshade, an economic historian, believes there is a range of economic data that can be studied to promote a better understanding of sexual behaviour, marriage and the reasons behind rising divorce rates and dwindling marriage figures.'People marry each other for economic reasons; for instance people generally marry within their own income sphere, education or class,' she adds.
