The beauty of that product is that it can read deleted messages off a SIM card. But our biggest seller, when it comes to infidelity products, has always been the CheckMate kit which is a semen detection kit."

Study: Women prefer men with stubble - For both affair and marriage

The explanation for the preference is not clear, but psychologists think that stubbly men may offer women the best worlds: not too strongly masculine, but mature and with the potential to grow a full beard.
