Feminism Fatale! Anna Khachiyan, Kathleen Stock, Mary Harrington, Bridget Phetasy, Diana Fleischman, five of the worlds leading thinkers on the failures and future of feminism come together at the Dissident Dialogues festival of ideas. What happened to feminism? Has it done good or done damage? Has caused a masculinity crisis? What of its tenets are worth fighting for? Filmed on May 3rd, 2024.

Evolutionary psychologist Diana Fleischman discusses IVF, artificial genetic selection, and her unique take on the Ethan Hawke/Uma Thurman movie, Gattaca.

In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Diana Fleischman about a wide range of topics including polyamory and eugenics. They talk about how evolutionary psychology is a good framework for understanding relationships, patriarchal and matriarchal societies, history of monogamous and polyamorous relationships and jealousy and polyamory. They also talk about the difficult history of eugenics, decoupling bad from the good, polygenic scores, governmental differences with prenatal care, GWAS, and many more topics. Diana Fleischman is an evolutionary psychologist and Associate Research professor at the University of New Mexico. Her research has focused on evolutionary psychology, disgust research, sex differences, animal rights, and eugenics.

On this episode of Unsupervised Learning Razib talks to Aporia Magazine's Diana Fleischman, an evolutionary psychologist who earned her Ph.D. in David Buss' lab at the University of Texas in Austin. Fleischman discusses the origins of her field, its methodological framework and presuppositions, and why evolutionary psychologists seem obsessed with sex. Razib also brings up the relationship of evolutionary psychology to primatology and the role that behavioral studies of common chimpanzees and bonobos play in understanding what Jared Diamond termed the “third chimpanzee,” humans. They then circle back to the importance of the reality of heritable “hard-wired” behaviors in evolutionary psychology, and its relationship to behavior genetics. Fleischman and Razib then move on to eugenics and the controversy that ensued after Fleischman's piece You're probably a eugenicist. They wonder how narrowly to constrain the term; for example, is the ubiquitous termination of fetuses with Down Syndrome eugenic if those individuals brought to term cannot themselves reproduce? Is selection for intelligence and height in your marriage partner eugenical? Razib and Fleischman also talk about the eugenical impact of abortion, including the decline of crime, and why the Left does not talk extensively about this topic. Fleischman discusses eugenics' future with the rise of reproductive technology and a more detailed understanding of complex trait architecture. The possibility of embryo selection's rise brings up concrete concerns and resurrects the specter of bottom-up eugenics, despite the abolishment and banning of top-down eugenics. Fleischman and her co-authors tackle ‌‌embryo selection for complex traits in a recent piece in Aporia.

This week, Meghan welcomes evolutionary psychologist Diana Fleischman. Diana's areas of research include human sexuality, the effect of hormones on behavior, and how “disgust” (the condition of being disgusted) is an evolutionary adaptation, especially for women. In this conversation, Diana talks about why the field of evolutionary psychology is subject to such much bad-faith misapplication but why uncomfortable truths about human mating patterns can nonetheless offer important lessons. She and Meghan explore the relationship between female social hierarchies and cancel culture (for instance, do women control cancel culture?) and then get into a deep discussion about polyamory. What does it really mean? What does it take to make it work? And how come most people just don't have the emotional discipline to succeed at it.   For the bonus portion for paying subscribers, Diana talks about how her younger self would feel about her current self, why she's a transhumanist, what's stopping the world from embracing “clean meat," why she donated her eggs several years ago and wrote letters to her future genetic offspring, and whether she'd pick herself out of a genetic lineup of embryos.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.louiseperry.co.ukMy guest this week is Diana Fleischman, evolutionary psychologist, author, and one of the hosts of the Ideas Sleep Furiously podcast. We spoke about the effect that sex robots will have on the dating market, why men and women have affairs, why it's so hard to talk about ‘mate value', and why polyamory only works for a very small subset of people.

Diana Fleischman is an American evolutionary psychologist. Her field of research includes the study of disgust, human sexuality, and hormones and behavior. Diana will be hosting her own show with us, so we thought you'd like to get to know her! Diana's Substack, Twitter, and website.

One of the most interesting features of human intelligence is that it comes with personality. We aren't all the same and our thoughts aren't purely logical. They are instead sculpted by our level of hunger, how tired we are, the presence of mind altering drugs in our systems, our sexuality, stress, and any number of internal and external factors. So how did humans end up with our peculiar psychology, and what sort of control does our evolutionary past have over the thoughts we are able to have and the behaviors we are able to express as individuals? In this episode of the podcast I speak with evolutionary psychologist Dianna Fleischman to find out. Dianna unmasks some of the more wild and curious features of our evolved psychology - this is conversation that ranges from human sexuality and fetishes, to cannibalism, to the me too movement, to disgust sensitivity, to sex differences in behavior and cognition, to the impact that modern technology has on societal structure. ►Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/5cW4FrYBmtI ►Find out more about Diana's work here: https://dianaverse.com/ ►At 11:25 we discuss the Trobriand islands, a topic of which neither Diana or myself are experts. I will try to get an expert on the cultures of the Trobriand Islands on the program to dispel any myths.

This conversation picks up on a strand that I've been thinking a lot about. Diana Fleischman in my conversation with her said: Institutions are increasingly reflecting the values of middle aged women. Tyler Cowen often writes about the feminization of society at Marginal Revolution. In addition to feminisation we discuss: Growing up with another language Richard's folkways American culture as a dissolvent Impact of immigrant background Money, fame or power? What is the source of GOP derangement?

Diana's writing a book called “How to Train Your Boyfriend” – so, there's a lot of that. We also discuss: The mating market and the downstream effects of untangling sex from marriage Big lies in the open today Things that don't work if you name them Feminisation of society and how, in her words, institutions are increasingly reflecting he values of single middle aged women Sorcery and witchcraft The problems of knowledge in evolutionary psychology And a lot more. Including tangents. Lots of tangents.  This was a really fun conversation. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This week our guest is Dr. Diana Fleischman, an evolutionary psychologist and active member of the effective altruism community. We explore a range of topics, including social engineering, our evolutionary relationship with technology and language, effective altruism, and using the concept of Skinner boxes to create systems for ourselves that condition us towards better behaviors. You can find more of Dr. Fleischman's work at her website: Dianaverse. And if you want to learn more about our podcasts and become a part of our 30,000+ member community, join here!

In this special episode of Psyphilopod, Bo and original co-host Cory Clark are joined by the wonderful Diana Fleischman to discuss the ethics of our treatment of animals. First, they discuss utilitarianism, which is the basic moral framework through which Diana thinks about these issues. Then they get into the weeds of the morality of diets, asking and attempting to answer such questions as: Is it always wrong to eat animals? What’s a suffering footprint? Is hunting more ethical than fast food? How do we know that animals actually experience pain?

Integrating Evolutionary Psychology and Behaviorism Summary - All of us want to change other people's behavior to align more closely with our goals. Over the last century, behaviorists have discovered how reward and punishment change the behavior of organisms. The central idea of this talk is that we are intuitive behaviorists and that our relationships, emotions, and mental health can be better understood if you consider how we evolved to change the behavior of others.

Sign up here to join upcoming events live via Zoom: https://www.meetup.com/London-Ayn-Rand-Meetup/Consider supporting our work by becoming a member: https://aynrandcentre.co.uk/membership/The current debate around sex and gender differences has raised fundamental questions about the roles of choice, environment, and biology in shaping human nature. For instance:What can and can’t evolutionary theory teach us about the attitudes, preferences, and behaviors of individuals?To what extent, and in what sense, are we responsible for our actions?How might biology and/or environment mitigate or enhance this responsibility?Do we inherit character traits? Can we choose to change them?Can we control what we ‘imbibe’ from our environment, including our social interactions?What are the implications of evolutionary psychology for mental illness and treatment, and for moral agency and self-improvement?These questions, and more, are discussed by evolutionary psychologist Dr. Diana Fleischman, and clinical psychologist Dr. Gena Gorlin.Recommended reading:https://link.springer.com/epdf/10.100...https://7b78c7dd-f3cf-49a2-9cd8-bc805...http://people.whitman.edu/~herbrawt/c...https://breakingthefreewillillusion.c...

The absolute final word on all social-scientific questions related to Tiger King, the recent Netflix documentary. Taking questions from Twitter, we analyze: Why these tiger-breeding cult leaders score hot chicks (and guys, including straight guys!), the personality traits of these people, the ethical culpability of Joe vs. Carole, the ethics of animal breeding in general, etc. We also highlight multiple feasible equilibria in which Carole and Joe cooperate to reduce animal suffering.

Thank you all for this great first week of fundraising. It was great, but I still need more support. I would love to keep doing it for another 2 years, but to be honest, I am broke. For these past two years, I have brought on the show some of the top academics/scholars in a diversity of fields, like Psychology, Anthropology, Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, Philosophy, and even Literary Studies. Some of the biggest names that appeared throughout my 300 interviews include: Noam Chomsky, Jerome Kagan, Randy Thornhill, Dale Purves, Michael Ruse, David Buss, Simon Blackburn, Alexander Rosenberg, Terrence Deacon, Richard Shweder, Diane Halpern, Robert Plomin, David Sloan Wilson, Richard Wrangham, Azar Gat, David C. Geary, Leda Cosmides, Todd Shackelford, Diana Fleischman, Don Ross, Gad Saad, Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, Patricia Churchland, David Barash, Peter Singer, Martin Daly, David Benatar, Paul Slovic, Glenn Geher, Lars Penke, Kevin Mitchell, Randolph Nesse, Bo Winegard, Cory Clark, Peter DeScioli, Daniel Nettle, Steve Stewart-Williams, Paul Slovic, Robert Trivers, Helen Fisher, Richard Haier, Nicole Barbaro, Pascal Boyer, Steven Hayes, Lee Cronk, Chris Stringer, Lyn Wadley, Donald Hoffman, Cecilia Heyes, Nicholas Humphrey, Indre Viskontas, Nicholas Christakis, Daniel Lieberman, Marco Del Giudice, Peter Ungar, Alice Eagly, Daniel Everett, Susan Pinker, and many others. On my show, you can certainly find informative, well-researched, engaging, and fun interviews on topics that will feed your intellectual interest. My income for these past two years has depended completely on the donations made by my charitable patrons and Paypal supporters, but, unfortunately, it is not enough. In today's society, scientific literacy is ever more important, and, hopefully, I have been contributing to spread knowledge outside of academia in a format that I try my best to be accessible even to laypeople.

Has love turned you into a zombie? In this episode of Zombified, we talk to evolutionary psychologist and relationship expert Diana Fleischman about the many ways love zombifies us: from romantic relationships to parent-child interactions. She offers tips for how to train your boyfriend, how to resist getting behaviorally conditioned by those you love, and talks to us about when getting zombified in relationships might not really be such a bad thing.

Join us for the live launch of season 2 of Zombified. Athena and Dave chat with are awesome guests Diana Fleischman and Katina Michael about love, technology, the pluses and minuses of monogamy, and how to train your boyfriend. Listen alone or with someone you think you love.

Her research interests are hormonal influences on behavior, human sexuality, disgust and, recently, the interface of evolutionary psychology and behaviorism. In this episode, we talk about the evolutionary psychology of sex robots, and how they might impact men and human society. We talk about why men will be the primary marketing targets, and the several different ways sex robots might have a positive impact in their lives.

The only reason you're here, reading this, is because there is an unbroken chain leading back from you to the origin of life itself. In nature, adaptations shaped by environments to solve the problems of survival and mating: Endless forms of beautiful complexity like echolocation, courtship dances, and lactation. For millions of years we've had to find food, find mates and take care of our children and for hundreds of thousands of years we've used language to communicate, made tools, formed societies and shared our cultural innovations. Evolutionary psychology sees the human mind as shaped by the problems we faced over and over again throughout our deep history. According to evolutionary psychologists nothing about human nature makes sense except in light of evolution. The endless forms in the human mind include emotions, thought patterns, perceptions, and social interactions which can be discovered and examined by investigating their possible function in solving problems of survival and reproduction. Evolutionary psychology has had a massive influence on the field of psychology and public's perception of the human mind. But, detractors also criticize evolutionary psychology for being biologically determinist, reactionary, and lacking falsifiability and scientific rigour. In this talk I'll introduce you to the field of evolutionary psychology, its foundational principles and methods as well as common misunderstandings, questions and legitimate concerns. Diana Fleischman, PhD is a Senior Lecturer in Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Portsmouth. After an internship at a chimpanzee research facility, Diana earned her PhD in evolutionary psychology at the University of Texas at Austin studying hormonal influences on disgust sensitivity. After two research positions, one investigating handwashing and the other looking at hormonal influences on women's psychology, Diana arrived at Portsmouth where she researches disgust and teaches a course on the Psychology of Human Sexuality. Diana is currently working on a popular book applying evolutionary psychology and animal training to romantic relationships. You can follow Diana on twitter @sentientist.

Jordan Buck talks to Dr Diana Fleischman about how evolutionary biology effects our behaviour and decision making

Dr. Diana Fleischman has been obsessed with evolution since she was a little girl. Today, she is a leading researcher in the field of evolutionary psychology, a soon-to-be author, and a force in the effective altruism movement. In this interview, Chad and Dr. Fleischman discuss her research, how the EA movement is redefining animal suffering, and how you can minimize your suffering footprint. They also talk about the value of teasing in close relationships and how today’s culture may be going to far to limit healthy humor. This episode is part of our Past, Present, Future theme week.

On this episode of Rationally Speaking, professor Diana Fleischman makes the case for transhumanist evolutionary psychology: understanding our evolved drives, so that we can better overcome them. Diana and Julia discuss sexual preferences, jealousy, and other drives -- how immutable are they? How do we know? And how would it change society, if we could change the distribution of people we find attractive, or normalize new relationship structures such as polyamory?
