285: Roe v Wade, Body Positivity in Women, Blank Slate model appeal
In today's show, the dr's discuss:
- Current events re: Roe v Wade
- There is so much about "body positivity" on the media and women growing their body hair out especially. On social media I read mainly positive comments on this, but especially from women, while some men are making rather jokey comments. I was just wondering what might be the motivation for women who keep saying stuff like "good on her", "if only I was braver, I'd do the same", etc…?? Like they're all claiming that removal of body hair is forced on us by recent culture. Is it though? I personally as a women hate my body hair and have removed it since before puberty. To me it actually feels "natural" to remove it. So I wonder if there is any perspective on this specific topic from the evolutionary psychology perspective?
- What is your erudite opinion on why the 'blank slate' model seem to particularly appeal to certain "character types" more than others.
