It was a dutch article where they interviewed some pub owners in Boston. Probably more people have the day off on 4th of july then there are scots in Boston for the world cup…

In the article I read they compared the drinking in the days around the scottish game to the drinking in the 4th july weekend and the scots massively won.

And then you end up wearing as little as possible underneath and looking way to sexy in the hallways.

Did you reply with the dead salmon in mri experiment?

I have a friend who notices when she forgets her adhd meds because the music starts playing.

When she told me this it was the first time I realized constant brain music is not a normal thing that everyone has.

I found this paper: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1529100616637616 (very low effort first citation on wikipedia) that discusses all the nuances and difficulties of estimating sexual orientation. And they mention some figures of 93% of men and 87% of women stating they are not even a tiny bit gay, so it does seem that the figures in the first comment are extreme.

Thought you might also want to know about this brilliant line in the paper: If one cannot reliably make a male human become attracted to other males by cutting off his penis in infancy and rearing him as a girl, then what other psychosocial intervention could plausibly have that effect?

(In response to 6/7 men who lost their penis at birth and were raised as girls ending up identifying as heterosexual men as adults. The last identifying as a bisexual woman.)

There is a big difference between asking someone to choose a label like straight or gay in a survey and asking if they ever think about sex/romance with someone of the same sex or would ever consider going into such a relationship.

I would identify as cis straight if it’s just the multiple choice, but like bisexual with 90% straightness if I could choose a point on a spectrum.

I chose to not have children mainly for the environment. My partner just doesn’t like the idea of having children. However, I know a lot of leftist people that have/want children.
