Angelina Jolie Syndrome – Sabah Newspaper

Drawing such a generalized conclusion from a study based solely on photographs would be methodologically flawed. To reach such a conclusion, first a group of single women would have to choose between specific men in the pictures, identified as married or in relationships, based on their attractiveness. Then, a second group of women would have to choose between men identified as single and men identified as married to the first group, and vice versa.

Deception Series – Sabah Newspaper

Many things catch our eye throughout our lives. But very few of them also capture our hearts and souls. Like the pain of love, marriage, and infidelity!

Sexual Crime – Sabah Newspaper

“1. Not everyone who commits a sexual offense is mentally ill, because it would be wrong to label everyone who exhibits behavior outside of societal norms, regardless of its content and frequency, as 'mentally ill.'

What does a woman want? – Habertürk Newspaper

1. Based on your observations, write a short introductory sentence sharing what you believe to be the most significant cause of disagreements between couples. One of the most important reasons for various problems arising between spouses is their increasing estrangement from each other, meaning that the time spent together gradually becomes an unpleasant experience.
