a few threads from twitter

- This myth needs to end: we all start out as females in the womb. @zaelefty

- ask Google's woke AI program about this and it tells you: "There is no significant difference in the violent crime rates of black and white people." @monitoringbias

- H.L. Mencken hated modernity, opposed the New Deal, and was against American entry into WW-II / Democracy is not a solution but a PROBLEM @oldbooksguy / Jash Dholani

race is not devoid of biological meaning

Even the old and outmoded view of race is not devoid of biological meaning. A group of researchers compared a broad sample of genes in over 3,600 individuals who self-identified as either African American, white, East Asian, or Hispanic. DNA analysis showed that these groups fell into genetic clusters, and there was a 99.84 percent match between which cluster someone fell into and their self-designated racial classification. This surely shows that even the old concept of race is not “without biological meaning.”

@NoahCarl90 и @RichardDawkins да и все подряд, конечно. twitter бурлит и кипит. ждем инквизицию. там, вообще-то, в основном про гендер, но про расы того, что цитирует @NoahCarl90, достаточно для аутодафе по законам добра и красоты.

нечего терять

"They believe in left wing gender ideology and toxic critical race theory," Trump said. "We believe in two genders. There are men and there are women."

Trump spoke for about two hours.

похоже старик решил, что терять нечего

sexual coercion fantasies

Any good evopsych theories why? @Aella_Girl

множество ответов, но одного достаточно от @primalpoly:

These results are consistent with most research on sexual coercion fantasies.

Lots of ideas from ev psych & ev bio are relevant here, such as hypergamy, patrilocality, tribal warfare, resistance-as-screening, mate choice for dominance, adaptive self-deception....

defying gender stereotypes

On That Bombshell Billie Eilish Cover for British Vogue
The pop star known for defying gender stereotypes got a glamour makeover with a corset. Not everyone is happy about it.
а тут русская аудитория комментирует. комментарии жгут, как всегда. ну вот для примера:
-- Я думал она худенькая...

-- В корсет помещается.

-- а мы думали вы красивый...

defying gender stereotypes my ass

добавлю от себя: зарабатывать песенками, видимо, уже на жизнь не удается, приходится телом. у меня лично возражений нет, песенки ее я все равно не слушаю.

interesting asymmetry

Interesting asymmetry with important implications: People attribute the lack of women in STEM fields to external factors (discrimination, stereotyping) but attribute the lack of men in helping professions to internal factors (lack of motivation, lack of ability).

water is still wet

Among both men and women, unsolicited sexual advances were considered more disturbing and more discomforting when perpetrated by an unattractive opposite sex colleague than when perpetrated by an attractive opposite sex colleague. @ImHardcory
some comments:

- Well, duh.....
- Rocket science
- Science once again proves the obvious
- Who woulda thunk it?
- In other news water is still wet.

and, finally: Reminds me a Sarah Silverman joke that still makes me cringe-laugh: “I was raped by a doctor. Which is, you know, so bittersweet for a Jewish girl.”

про уток

У офиса, где я проработал много лет, есть пруд, где, естественно, плавали всяки водоплавающие, в основном утки и гуси. В начале весны у уток начинался “гон”, и селезни толпами бегали за каждой уткой. Как-то раз, прямо на виду у прогуливающихся около пруда программистов и примкнувших к ним, селезни таки поймали утку и занялись делом. После того, как на утке оттоптался очередной селезень, присутствующие бабы вагиноамериканцы стали требовать, чтобы присутствующие мужики прекратили это безобразие.

Increasing the amount of women on the boards of companies has seen profits slump by 12 per cent because they ‘take fewer risks’, study claims

unequal sex ratios

"Unequal sex ratios are associated with increased competition and risky behaviors amongst individuals of the more prevalent sex, and a general shift towards the relationship preferences of the scarcer sex" - @PsychoSchmitt
