In this month's episode we look at sexuality: why do people who identify as straight sometimes hookup with partners of the same gender? We'll also find out if straight men prefer women who are attracted to other women. This episode also features an interview with Sydni Huxman of Kansas State University, who presented her research on backup partners at the recent HBES conference.

    1. My team had to finish a big research proposal in time for submission tomorrow, so it really ate up the last couple of weekends and all our work hours. I’ll get the episode out this week, and be back on schedule for the next one. Thanks for noticing it hadn’t arrived!
