In FIVE. MOTHERFUCKING. HOURS. That’s twice as much as I make in a year. Would you guys get really mad at me if I pretended to be a homophobe who faced backlash for some homophobic remarks, made a bunch of money from homophobes, kept half the proceeds for myself and donated the other half to the HRC? That’s an okay

If I had the money (oh and someone to marry), I would do it.

So from this part: " Here's a quick reality check: everyone — from Bill Clinton to your grandfather to every Greek organization in the nation does the same old stuff, just as they have been for the entirety of human history."

Is Poop still something you might put out?

This. Not to mention the fact that anthropologists and evolutionary psychologists aren't necessarily all in sync with the "we evolved to be polyamorous" theory. There are a few different schools of thought that say a few different things.

Don't forget the condescending nature of that idea, which is that people who aren't poly are either in denial or less "evolved."

What's the over/under on how long before poly and open relationship type people take their evangelizing door-to-door like Jehovah's Witnesses?

It's very nice that you found an environment in which you are happy, but I do wish people would stop deferring to evolution every single time. The people who write books and push the idea that humans "evolved" or "didn't evolve" to be monogamous or play football or drive a Toyota Cressida do so with very flimsy

Everything aside I have a huge crush on ^THIS dude.

Sorry, man. It is the signal for sunburn season for me. The death knell for my ability to walk outside like a normal person.

you're out at the club on Saturday night

This is the weirdest response. You claim to have this wisdom that comes with maturity, and then you share a story about how you turned a blind eye to your husband's CHILD PORN FETISH, and use that as your rationale for cheating on him. What part of this am I supposed to admire?

The problem with cheating is more than the act of having sex with another person. It's the lying, the deceitfulness, sneaking around, and treating someone you're suppose to love and have taken vows with like they don't matter. So, no, I have no empathy for people like that.

The reason people dislike cheating is because of empathy. They are empathetic to the person unknowingly getting cheated on.

I dismiss this because I'm an actual scientist who understands important things like empirical data and confirmation bias.

Evo psych is INCREDIBLY sexist. I thought everyone was in agreement that it's sexist, archaic, bullshit so I'm really confused by the articles lately promoting it as a legit thing.

Hmm, so are women killing for "power or financial gain" because evolution, or because women in America and the UK are less likely to have power and financial freedom in the first place because institutional misogyny?
