I'd like to second this, with a hearty helping of, "More - or less? - than the fourteen year old rape victim that the community apparently kept secret?"

If I read another statement from someone saying this community has suffered a lot I will fill in an application for the first mars migration. They discover yet another rape of an underage girl that these people covered up and they are talking about how this community has suffered enough? I'm sorry, do you mean all the…
"This community has suffered a great deal,"
"Given these new allegations, it's clear that despite the fact that Attorney General DeWine wants "to let Steubenville move on," it'll be difficult to do so. "This community has suffered a great deal," he said. 'I know they desperately need to be able to put this matter behind them.'"
The evo-psych buffoons also tend to overlook the fact that women have just as much incentive to stray as men do, particularly because it takes so much effort to have each child. If one man fathers all of their children and he passes on a genetic flaw, then she's wasted her efforts. It would make more evolutionary…
Okay, sure, there MAY be differences in behaviour that are hard wired, but:
There was the same argument about white brains versus black brains. I think it's also important to think about where the question is coming from...
Because these "discoveries" are then used to discriminate against women.
This study was made up of all American college students. It doesn't say specifically, but it was done by UT Austin, so it's very likely the students are from UT Austin. These are not "widespread social behaviors", these are behaviors of 200 college students in a particular state, who are all influenced by the same…
This reminds me of the paper that claimed women liked shopping because it's more like picking berries and nuts, and men like getting in and out of the store as fast as possible because that's more like hunting.
That's why I dislike the whole "evolutionary psychology" thing. The concept has potential, but it's all being run by morons who are just trying to prove that their worldviews are inborn human biology. You can't prove that something is a human universal unless you get samples and surveys from people of different age…
I cannot STAND these large-scale surveys of adult men and women that try to argue that because they get a certain result, it's biological. These people have been living in society for at least 18 years, people! Do you really think they haven't learned anything about how society works and how they "should" feel?
I really wish this article was more clear on that subject....off to do some digging because as a 5'10" athletic 170-175 pound single lady this is extremely relevant to my life...also I am now terrified.
I am only a bit overweight, not obese, but I have been on BC for a decade and I have literally never been told that. Even in a conversation about how I should lose a few pounds. Really scary.
Yeah, even when I'm not inactive because of injury, I'm so tall that it apparently won't work for me, period (heh, so to speak). That's really terrifying, and something that should have come out before now. :\
And cue the trolls yammering on about how fat women don't have sex, so why would this be an issue. Because only "pretty" people have sex, right? Yeeesh.
Geez, are you kidding? This really kicks home to me some of the points that have been made around here recently about how medicines are tested.
"Mangum's accusations against the players were eventually thrown out, though prosecutors didn't file charges against her, explaining that she "may actually believe" she was raped."
Today is my 58th Birthday! I feel great! Can I get a Woot-Woot? Cool. Survived a lot of shit and got grey hair, but life is good. Rock On, Jezebels!
