Love, love, love! Can love last? Does love change as we mature? Is love an universal?  Does our expression of love and sexuality change across the life span? What about senior citizens?  Are they looking for love? The answer might surprise you!  What questions do you have about our love-lives across the lifespan?

 

For this assignment I need to find a JOURNAL ARTICLE about Human Sexuality, relationships or Mating. Using the Journal Research article format answer the questions I pose in that outline.  Make sure you cut an post the abstract in your numbered summary and give me a link.

 

Hint: In the search box for the data base use terms that will access your life span approach.  Virtually any term will lead to a find. Infidility, dating behavior, Human sexuality, etc. You might want to add a parameter such as, male and female differences, marriage, middle age, aging, etc.  and love, aging and sex, sex and-or  love across the lifespan .....will define the range of articles.

 

Take a paragraph to give us your opinion. The best part of this assigment is that you can use it towards your final- a collection of journal reviews.
