Approaching Significance.

Human behavior is the most complex subject in the world and I love it. I’m a geek for criminology and research. Behavior, especially of the deviant nature, fascinates me.

I am currently working on my Ph.D. in Criminology at a large university. I have specific interests in psychology, deviant behaviors, psychopathology, sexual violence, and violent offenders.

Not-so-sexy CPAP can boost men’s sex lives A CPAP device, the Darth Vader-like mask used to ease breathing in sleep apnea sufferers, might be the least attractive thing a man can wear at night, but it could wind up improving his sex life, according to a new study released today at an annual meeting of sleep experts. More than half of patients with mild E.D., or some 54 percent, noticed an improvement after CPAP use. Nearly 29 percent of those with moderate E.D. improved, and more than 27 percent of those with severe E.D. saw a boost. Sexual desire also tended to improve, Dombrowsky found. The CPAP is a mask-and-tube contraption that few might call sexy. Worn during sleep, it sends a steady flow of air through the mask into breathing passages to keep airways open and restore depleted oxygen levels. It’s the most common and effective treatment for OSA, which occurs when tissue in the back of the throat collapses during sleep, blocking air, disrupting sleep and boosting the risk of health problems such as heart disease and stroke. Hey baby, come over here and give me a kiss…

    Is this a serious study? If it is, is awesome. CRAP. It sounds funny.
