    Psychology served as the platform from which Eugenics was promulgated. It's a despicable history, and IMO has too much influence on society today.

      That sounds like a severe misrepresentation. Eugenics used everything they found that even remotely supported their cause. It mainly focused on physical features. Psychology dates way back before Eugenics was a thing. To me it seems that psychology gets largely ignored, not even remotely having too much influence.

      @@tomlxyz It is widely known that Eugenics was launched from psychology's platform. Even Psych college programs admit this. czcams.com/video/-r8LfxCLSzs/video.html

      @@tomlxyzYou use a form of language based thinking that essentially amounts to lego-like pattern matching. There wasn't a point when eugenics "became a thing", it's ancient, maybe even older than agriculture.
      Everything on this planet will always converge and tend towards weaponization. It really is that simple.

    Okay, I have trouble wrapping my head around this concept of "sexual embarrassment." What the hell is that!? What's embarrassing about reading some smut out loud because you were TOLD to do it? Maybe I'm just a wonton strumpt with no sense of shame, but is this really a common feeling people have? And is it really triggered that easily??
    IMHE I've seen some people get squimish or uncomfortable around conversations of sex, but that's usually an exception, not a rule. Maybe my friends are perverts like me, but I am really having trouble accepting that this is not only a common feeling, but that it's SO common that it's the ONLY way these researchers could possibly have studied cognitive dissonance 🧐
    Everything about that first study just sounds ridiculous and counter intuitive to me. Like if I were in the "extreme" group I feel like I would be LESS likely to rate the boring group as acceptable. Like after that spicy passage, I thought this was going to be interesting. I'm highly disappointed 😤
    I know this is anecdotal personal experience, but am I really that far off the mark on this one? 🤔😅

      The idea that just reading a smutty passage outloud could even be remotely akin to a "social hazing" or an "embarassing initiation" is completely absurd to me. I don't know why, but the idea that this study was haralded as some great feat in scientific research makes me feel unreasonably intellectually aggrieved.

    You did not give me a trigger warning about "trigger warning". That is the worst thing ever happened in academia and almost turned me off immediately if I did not enjoy watching some of your other videos first......

    11:50 wow that was amazing, so one way of being gay is to convince them socially that they are.
