Feeling very proud of the Council on Academic Freedom at Harvard (@cafharvard) & our new statement, which @harvard should adopt. Here's a bit: "Every member of the academic community should be free from fear of reprisal for positions they defend, questions they ask, or ideas they entertain...[and] should enjoy full standing to speak and be heard, regardless of background or social position...We also have a moral duty to listen, and to approach disagreement in a spirit of genuine curiosity, motivated by the desire to learn from each other, and open to the possibility that any of us, at any time, might be wrong." 👇🏽 thecrimson.com/article/2024/… @neilhshah15 @tillyrobin @sapinker @Kkitparker @jflier

Replying to @robkhenderson
I was a teaching assistant for @ProfDavidBuss's "Psychology of Human Mating". He would roll out a whiteboard and ask class questions. "What are some of the cons of short term mating?" David asked the men. One guy shouts out- "it can turn into long term mating!"

"If your brain learns to be aroused by watching other people have sex, it is not necessarily going to carry over to the ability to get aroused when you’re 1 on 1 with somebody else." @hubermanlab 🔗 youtu.be/31DMZLK_PPs
