Making a post about the need of CBT in genetic counseling.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that the best thing a parent can do for their son is to enroll him in co-ed activities and facilitate friendships with girls from the youngest age possible. Patriarchy hurts boys. And nothing runs counter to patriarchy like teaching boys to genuinely value girls.

Four books on the philosophy of marriage.

Interesting polling data: Those with unfavorable views of Donald Trump are the LEAST LIKELY to support political violence.

There seems to be a whole group of men who believe they will have more sex under fascism. But let me clear something up for you. Fascism doesn’t promise more sex. It promises more rape. If that’s the path you’re taking to get sexual access to women, then you’re on the path of becoming a rapist.

Columbia University has handed over its undergraduate admissions process to Donald Trump and his MAGA allies, who will now decide at their sole discretion whether the university has admitted enough white people. It's no longer an independent institution.

Martin Luther King Jr. is well-known for fighting for Civil Rights, bus boycotts, the “I Have a Dream” speech, and non-violent protest. But in his later life, he extended his philosophy toward global justice and interconnected his criticism of poverty to the problem of fighting in Vietnam.

What are some good scholarly journals that would be interested in doing a book review on the philosophy of sex education? It would also touch upon moral philosophy, gender studies, public policy, public health, and psychology.

We often hear we need more empathy, but what is it exactly? It’s a multifarious answer. So I looked at it from various psychological and philosophical descriptions into a coherent post. I would’ve loved to add more elements such as descriptions from Carl Rogers, but perhaps that’s for another post.

Riding on the NY subway and I saw drawing meticulously making sure that each pencil drawing was in its particular line. Looks really good but seriously, how did you manage that with all the bumps, abrupt starts and stops, and the sharp turns?
