I'm not at my office so I can't read the entire paper, but I read the abstract and it makes no mention of orgasms whatsoever. It was also published in the Archives of Sexual Behaviour, a journal my supervisor makes fun of relentlessly, so take the study with a grain of salt.

You must be American.

Why do you think he's a snob? And I think the desire to feel belonging, to feel loved and accepted, and to feel successful are all very common human wants.

Hmm, I wonder what this says about the efficacy of the "inspirational workshop"...

Thank you, it really really is!

Eh, he seems like a nice enough fellow, and actually pretty honest and funny. His body is his business, and honestly this doesn't bother me.

He is devastated to hear it, I'm sure.

Listen, I understand the need for population control, but this is just sick. It sends the message that animals are ours to use and exploit for entertainment, and that's just wrong.

The science reporting on this site is atrocious and I can't understand why. I've also never seen an author respond to reader complaints about it.

Well, I think even people who will end up working at those jobs for life don't really deserve to be called stupid and illiterate...

A little, yeah.

Fair enough, I can appreciate that. It is obviously not normal behaviour. Although, I think it's equally possible that the woman is simply a sociopath or something, and many psychologists maintain that sociopathy is not a mental illness per se. Fun fact - there is actually a serious dearth of research on female…

Also, that whole you catch more flies with honey thing, etc etc....

Well, it's news. So in that respect it's totally reasonable to report on it.

Well, that isn't really what I said. But I do think that some of the evo psych theories that lay people use to justify their various bigoted world views are theories that even evolutionary psychologists would find absurd. I'm thinking of some of the truly sinister stuff I've read in places like TheRedPill on reddit.

Well, in principle the human brain evolved under the same selection pressures that other organs in the body were subject to. If you believe in evolution, you have to accept that.

So I take it you're just not a very nice person then?

Ah. Maybe I was being too generous by assuming that all the critics of Muhammad here are atheists and not hypocritical Christians.

Coy about what, exactly? Are you suggesting that there is no possible way to dislike Beyonce and not be a racist? How could I have expressed my dislike for her in a way you'd have approved of?

It's not actually mine, so go ahead :)
