children can resemble the mother’s previous sexual partner



Scientist have proved for the first time that born children can resemble the mother’s previous sexual partner. This effect may be due to molecules in the seminal fluid of the first mate being absorbed by the immature eggs of female which influence the growth of offspring of a succeeding mate.

This idea is called telegony which dates back to ancient Greek times. Australian Scientist from New South Wales have tested it out by manipulating the size of male flies and studied their offspring and found that the size of the young was determined by the size of the first male with whom mother mated rather than the second male.

The above study is very interesting piece of information which really tells us about the new scientific findings about the sexual relations.
