Do you have a real objection or just snide things to say? Isn't the liberal side responsible for the sexual revolution? And isn't liberalism of liberality? Then wouldn't "having an awareness of and repressing sexual impulses" be inherently conservative? Or is my kind of reality too real for...

To start with the second statement doesn't need support. It's something I'm saying about my own experience. It's purely anecdotal. Can you link me to page 575 table 1?. I'm having trouble finding it.

I've had men say so in all sorts of situations. Including in the company of women. I've had women ask their male friends. http://www.scientificamerican.com/artic ... t-friends/ Since this is a website supposedly frequented by science buffs I hope this link clears things up.

But you do have those impulses? I guess I don't need to ask, you say as much. I don't care whether you are aware of it or not. I'm aware of it. I brought it up. I must be aware of it. Didn't you essentially agree with me? You have feelings, but you restrain yourself and "treat them like...

Would it make you feel better if I said "fertile" instead? Or is that still too crass?

Got it. And I completely agree. Sex isn't the only thing in a marriage, but it is very important.

I wasn't trying to make the point that relationships just work if the couple has good sex. I guess my mind just latched on to the "friend" part of "friendzoned".

None of this is helped by the fact that men and women can't be friends in the first place. Men don't see women the way they see other men. If she is a woman of breeding age, she is an object of desire first and foremost. It's just the nature of men. I've never had a man, in private, tell me...

Why does he imagine that some of those women weren't looking for the same sort of interaction these two men were?

Liberality is precisely what I'd expect from liberals.

Who knows. I don't even see the lefty political angle on this, and that's the other reason Ars will post a story. Let's just change the name to ArsWhativica already. Or "The Daily Ars".

Good things do not make something a necessity. Electricity is a necessity because our homes run on it. If our homes increasingly need the internet to function, then it'll be necessary for everyone to have it at home. I code apps. It is very much in my best interests for the internet to be...

Please don't buy jewelry as an investment! If you want to know how much a piece of jewelry is really worth, find out the spot price of the metal it is made of, and figure out how much is in there. That's the money you are going to get back. You'll find pieces selling for hundreds or even...

I think people can still get access to most of what they need by phone or mail. And have libraries for internet access if they need it. But to be honest, I rather want everyone to have broadband access. It's just a very nice thing to have. And I suppose it'll eventually become a necessity as it...

The Internet isn't the same as electricity. It isn't fundamental. I didn't have internet access growing up. It was not like the stories you hear of people living without electricity. I'm sure most of you here remember living without it. Have things changed so much that today it is any...

I find it strange that PETA finds the support to keep going. They're an extremely high kill shelter. They don't think people should own pets. No family dog or cat allowed in a PETA world. That's exploitation! And they're part of this apes are persons nonsense.

If you are an American and you're willing to cross the IRS you are a brave, brave man. Or daft. Probably that.

I've never been able to understand this attraction anarchists and don't tread on me types have to Bitcoin. The blockchain lets not just the government but anyone who cares track your every monetary move. It won't be hard over time for government and business to start putting names to wallets...

It's about time. Never liked well off people begging for money on kickstarter to make a product to enrich themselves. Equity sharing is a much better model.

I'm not surprised they failed to fix it. We've gone down a bad road in programming. Well, two bad roads. The first is that too many programmers depend entirely on virtual runtime environments, and huge standard libraries. They aren't so much programmers as programming language users. Script...
