News - Request for Help from Lesbian and Bi Women

"Hi,

We're two dissertation students from Durham University conducting a dissertation study on lesbian and bisexual preferences for facial attraction across the menstrual cycle.

We're looking to recruit more participants for our study and wondered if you would be able to help us out. The study is all online and consists of completing a questionnaire and doing a facial attraction task which will need to be conducted each week for the length of your menstrual cycle. It is entirely confidential and anonymous, even from us, and your particpation would be really really appreciated.

Similar studies have been undertaken on hetrosexual populations therefore you would be participating in founding research which aims to fill a significant area of neglect in facial attraction studies.

We would be grateful if you forward this message to your mailing list/or a similar procedure depending on what your university lgbta does. If anyone is interested in conducting the study then please contact us at s.l.griffths@dur.ac.uk or m.l.lowe@dur.ac.uk and we'll give you the online link."
