Boys are boys and Girls are girls :)

London (IANS) Teenaged boys often prefer the anti-social route to popularity while teenaged girls are more keen on their education and academics, says a new study on teen behaviour and goals conducted in Spain.

The objective was to study how teenagers' goals were structured and the relationship between these goals and antisocial behaviour.

'Girls placed more importance on goals related to education and family aspects, while boys set targets that were more anti-social,' explains Laura Lopez Romero, who co-authored the study with Estrella Romero.

'Anti-social goals are to deceive, steal or bypass rules and laws. It allows them to achieve social recognition, establish an identity and antisocial reputation, which gives them a certain level of popularity,' says Romero, University of Santiago de Compostela (USC).

Diabetes may double risk of cancer for women.

Women who develop diabetes could also double their risk of cancer, a study has found.

Type 2 diabetes causes insulin-like hormones to circulate through the body. Researchers found that these appeared to interact with female hormones increasing the risk of cancer in women.

The study led by Dr Gabriel Chodick and Dr Varda Shalev of Tel Aviv University was the largest of its kind.

They followed more than 16,000 diabetics from 2000 to 2008. At the start of the study none of the participants had a history of cancer.

Over the following eight years, the researchers documented 1,639 cases of different cancers among people with diabetes, and compared them to occurrences of the same cancers in the healthy non-diabetic population - a sample of 83,874 people.

Woman banker claims she was sacked for being too attractive.

Debrahlee Lorenzana, 33, alleges that she was ordered to stop wearing pencil skirts, fitted business suits, tight trousers and high heels because her appearance was too much for her colleagues at Citibank to bear.

She has filed a sex discrimination suit against the bank in New York and is seeking damages for loss of earnings and emotional distress.

"My entire life, I've been dealing with this. People say, 'Oh, you got a job because you look that way'," Miss Lorenzana said. "Are you saying that just because I look this way genetically, that this should be a curse for me?"

Miss Lorenzana was hired by Citibank in September 2008 as a $70,000 per year business banker, based in the Chrysler Building. After her interview – to which she wore a black Armani wrap dress and Christian Louboutin heels – she claims a colleague told her that the branch was "pretty much known for hiring pretty girls".

Women 'better navigators' than men

London (ANI): Men might be good at reading maps, but when it comes to recalling routes, it's the ladies who walk away with crown, according to a new study.

According to the research, women can be better navigators than men if they have visited a place before.

And according to researchers, it all goes back to the Pleistocene epoch - which began more than 2.5m years ago - when humans' route finding skills were honed differently for the distinct tasks of hunters and gatherers.

To test their hypothesis, the scientists used the population of a Mexican village.

Boffins "fitted with GPS (global positioning system) navigation systems and heart-rate monitors followed villagers to see how many mushrooms they gathered and how long it took. The GPS system mapped all the routes taken, and the heart-rate monitors detailed the energy expended."
