I like that there is a link at the bottom which links to a well-written counter response: http://blogs.psychologytoday.com/blog/lust-in-paradise/20081... Even if the link title is "Is Satoshi Kanazawa the Rush Limbaugh of evolutionary psychology?" and the reply article title is (now?) "Is Evolutionary Psychology a Used Car?"

It is a little weird, however, to read an article calling out another article as linkbait, both hosted on the same site.



Thanks for pointing that out. The response was better than the original article, except for this one bit:

Because sexuality is so entangled with power in American culture, it's hard to talk about sex without getting political. The two are nearly inseparable to Republicans especially, as has been demonstrated repeatedly in their opposition to "non-traditional marriage" (only a near-complete ignorance of the history of marriage could lead one to think what we have now is "traditional"), Senator Craig's "wide stance" in the bathroom stall, and their glee in bringing down Bill Clinton over his "unnatural acts."

which is just plain odd, because that's the one and only time politics is mentioned in either article.
