I have been kind of crazy busy IRL. Was out of town last weekend, am going to visit Pants this weekend with a bunch of stuff to do this week and, well, tomorrow to do it. So what did I do today? Well, I was going to check my FL really quick and then be VERY PRODUCTIVE. Instead, I fell down this rabbit hole of WTFery wrt the fanfic survey.

It's fascinating, really. I mean, thinky thoughts, yeah. But also, the bulk of that thread is like an orgy of really intelligent comments pointing out the OH SO MANY ways the "science" guys are wrong. Is it wrong that I find it kind of hot? Maybe just ironic? Dare I say it's kind of like brain porn? YEAH I WENT THERE.

Anyway, there's also this article that is relevant to the discussion. Generally, I am predisposed to be offended by mainstream articles that talk about female sexuality, but iirc, I found that one interesting.

I guess the thing I find most irritating is the assumption that you can ignore the cultural context of something like this. BTW? You can't. It is always a factor. Really, I keep running into this mindset in a variety of places and it makes me boggle hardcore. Not enough WTF in the world.

Anywho, if you like women bein' all smart and shit, this is relevant to your interests.
