This article presents a history of ideas about the origins of love as a universal human experience, beginning with Freud's formulations and expanding concepts in the light of findings about the role of attachment and love in the earliest relationship between mother and baby. Conceptualisations based on the work of Klein, Winnicott, and Bion are linked to recent findings from neuroscience to arrive at a more complex conceptualisation of the origins and role of love for mothers, fathers, children and adults.

Trinidad and Tobago's anti-gay laws can be traced back to British colonialism and European imperialism. Their existence today and their consequences for human lives in Trinidad and Tobago during the past one hundred years are a local entanglement of historic global hierarchies of power. On 12 April 2018, in the High Court of Port of Spain, capital of Trinidad and Tobago, Justice Devindra Rampersad, in a form of judicial activism, trod where local politicians have not dared and intervened in such coloniality by delivering a legal judgement upholding the challenge by Jason Jones to the nineteenth-century colonial laws in Trinidad and Tobago that criminalise homosexual relations and same-sex loving.

À tour de bras, elle apprend à prendre la loi par-dessus la jambe. Sur le bout des doigts, elle apprend à mettre sur sa langue la langue aux hommes jusqu'alors légalement réservée. Elle apprend la finance, la politique, le name-dropping, les portefeuilles, les influences, le marchandage, le chantage et les combines. (Suspending gems dripping :) Elle divorce.

Lovene vi har i Midtausten er ikkje så mye arva frå "kolonitida" som dei samme som i denne tida. Derfor må vi heller sjå på kva dei sjølstendige statane har endra i forhold til det som var før europearane. Her kan vi sjå ei utvikling i retning av meir "moderne" normer, men også større statskontroll over det private.

I am driving 30 miles in a COVID-19 world to pick up liquid prednisone flavored with fresh chicken. The compounding pharmacy is not far, but it is distant enough, my errand inescapable. I will go for a brief walk with a friend nearby, the creamy chicken concoction tucked into a freezer pack, the measuring syringes listing in the damp paper bag. The traffic on I-90 is not bad, but I begin crying, the arch of the bridge pink-white in unexpected winter sun. ...

In Japan, marriage rates have declined since 1980, and interest in romantic relationships has declined in the 21st century. This article shows, mainly based on the official statistics and surveys, that (i) people in contemporary Japanese society have become less willing to get married or even date; (ii) various forms of virtual love have emerged; and (iii) they have spread in East Asian countries in general. Marriage stems from romantic relationships. Simultaneously, it brings with it new economic life. In Japan and other East Asian countries there is an unwritten norm that marriage should be part of economic life. Therefore, satisfying romantic emotions outside real love and marriage is accepted.

Across three studies, individual differences in the degree to which (a) participants enjoyed autobiographical storytelling with their romantic partners (storytelling enjoyment [SE]) and (b) thought about these relationships in narrative terms (narrative mindset [NM]) were examined in relation to psychological functioning and romantic relationship narratives. Drawing data from over 1,650 participants, relationship satisfaction, certain positive personality traits, and a dimension of secure attachment corresponded with both SE and NM. SE and NM also related to features of participants' relationship narratives. Storytelling and applying a NM to one's love life may carry implications for functioning within the romantic domain.
