From the report PsyOrg, a biologist from Indiana University confirms evidence of a ‘Red Queen hypothesis’. That is, humans reproduce through sexual intercourse to keep the deadly parasites do not threaten their existence.
According to experts, sexual reproduction through cross-fertilization of an evolution to prevent germs and parasites infect their bodies. That way, humans are one step ahead of parasite growth.
The findings explain, sexual reproduction requires two sexes to be more resistant germs. And, only one sex will produce offspring.
According to papers published in the journal ‘Science’, the worm Caenorhabditis elegans to force humans to evolve and require a partner to reproduce. Because, if human beings can self-fertilize the parasite, it will be easier to destroy the immune more deadly than when humans reproduce sexually.

“The bacteria is actually good for us,” said Professor Richard Gallo, thinks people are too obsessed with always clean and hygienic actually impair the ability of bacteria on the surface of the skin to protect skin from cuts, bruises or inflammation.
