ORION TARABAN | Winning in the Sexual Marketplace

Very few men think of relationships in the frame of the “sexual marketplace,” although the rules and principles of attraction and connection can very much be understood as an economic model, of sorts, of perceived value. And, the man who offers the most perceived value, is the man who gets the girl. Whether you're married or single, understanding the intricacies and nuance of what makes a man attractive to a woman will help him get more of what he wants from her. My guest today, psychologist Orion Taraban joins me to discuss these dynamics between men and women so we all get more of what we're after in relationships. We cover the importance of knowing your value and knowing what is valuable to the opposite sex, why love has little or nothing to do with attraction, what is known as the “Madonna-Whore Complex,” the concepts of Captains and Passengers as it relates to dating and mating, the difference between talking and communicating, and how best to make yourself more attractive.

In this episode, we sit down for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with reality TV and somehow ends up in the depths of human nature. We unpack why we're obsessed with shows like Survivor and Amazing Race, and what they reveal about competition, connection, and how people behave under pressure. We also get into the controversy around Aubrey Marcus and polyamory, diving into how society reacts to lifestyles that challenge the norm. From there, things get deeper. We explore whether humanity is really evolving or just repeating old patterns with fancier tools, and how our ideas of progress might be more fragile than we think. We touch on self-growth, childhood wounds, mental health, and even how exploring kinks can be part of personal healing. It's reflective, raw, and a little all over the place—in the best way.

From chasing monkeys in jungles and cities, to exploring the lives of our evolutionary ancestors, to examining human health, behavior, and diversity across the globe, Professor Fuentes is interested in both the big questions and the small details of what makes humans and our close relations tick. Earning his BA/BS in Anthropology and Zoology and his MA and PhD in Anthropology from UC Berkeley, he has conducted research across four continents, multiple species, and two million years of human history. His current projects include exploring cooperation, creativity, and belief in human evolution, multispecies anthropologies, evolutionary theory and processes, and engaging race and racism. Fuentes is an active public scientist, a well-known blogger, lecturer, tweeter, and an explorer for National Geographic. Fuentes was recently awarded the Inaugural Communication & Outreach Award from the American Association of Biological Anthropologists, the President's Award from the American Anthropological Association, and elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

In this episode of Hart2Heart, Dr. Mike Hart sits down with returning guest, Nicolle Hodges for a raw, honest conversation about her journey through love, identity, and desire. What happens when polyamory no longer feels expansive, and actually leaves you emotionally scattered? Nicolle shares how stepping into a monogamous relationship helped her reconnect with her feminine energy and finally feel safe enough to surrender. She opens up about the surprising grief that came with letting go, including a powerful ritual to release the future she once imagined. The two also explore BDSM as a form of healing, not just kink, but a doorway to deeper embodiment and trust. Nicolle argues a new way to think about intimacy, power, and what it means to choose love on your terms.  Nicolle Hodges is a Journalist, Author, Sexual Freedom Philosopher: Nicolle Hodges is the founder of Girls Who Say Fuck - an incubator for projects and conversations that instigate change. She is the author of 'Oh, the Places You'll Go Oh Oh' - a book about the power of female orgasms, fully illustrated and written in Dr. Seuss-style verse. She is the creator of Men Who Take Baths - an initiative where men in bubble baths are interviewed about what it means to "be a man." The movement advocates for gender equity through an interview series, art show, and group discussions. Educated as a broadcast journalist and a former television host for CTV Vancouver, Nicolle understands the power of creating spaces for profound connection through conversation.

Greetings friends. By now you have likely heard about, if not already listened to, Aubrey Marcus' podcast “A New Pattern for Sacred Relationship.” If you haven't I would recommend at least check out the first 30 minutes. Last weekend I listened to the whole thing, all 2.5 hours. I've also read and watched a number of responses to it (and there are many).Some folks call him a "false king" who is not a "real man". Others say the women (his wife and their lover) are being manipulated and have lost their own inner compass.Marc Gafni, their mentor (also featured on the podcast) calls them "evolutionary lovers in a field of erotic mystics" ... or something.It seems to have hit the cultural zeitgeist on sex, relationships, monogamy/polyamory, spiritual bypassing, divine union, cults, psychedelics, all of it.Just that alone has been fascinating to witness.A few days ago I posted an initial response on my Facebook. I also sent the episode to my friend and collaborator Deus Fortier, and he responded with is take here.I felt inspired to jump on a call today and record an emergent conversation between us. Enjoy!

The three of them are raising Daniel and Jennifer's two children and they each have partners outside of their throuple. Why are more people turning towards ethical non-monogamy?

What if friendship—not romance, not marriage—were the central relationship in your life?That's the question Rhaina Cohen asks in her book The Other Significant Others. And wow, do we love this book. David, TJ, and Elena sat down with Rhaina to talk about what it would mean to build a life around deep, committed friendship—and why our current relationship hierarchy (romantic > everything else) might be due for a rethink.Once you start centering friendship, it starts disrupting many other assumptions. We talked about: what it looks like to live near your friends, how parenting could look different, what happens when friends make commitments, when other people don't recognize those commitments, and whether secular folks should borrow a few ideas from monks.Join us and—if you haven't already—go read the book!About Our GuestRhaina Cohen is an award-winning editor for the NPR documentary podcast Embedded and the author of the national bestseller, The Other Significant Others: Reimagining Life with Friendship at the Center, which Trevor Noah described as "my new Bible." Her writing on social connection has appeared in The Atlantic, The New York Times, The Washington Post and has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Binary thinking is out of fashion. But what about biological sex?Whatever we might say about diversity and fluidity, the ideas of “male” and “female” seem essential in biology. I've taught the subject. I've drawn bees and flowers, with arrows from anthers to ovaries. I've used the terms “dad cell” and “mother cell” while doing so. I don't know how I could have done it any differently.And maybe that's just fine. Human sex cells are binary: sperm and egg. But here's the twist: humans aren't sex cells. Humans are animals. And animals aren't so easily grouped. XY chromosomes don't always produce a penis. And when we turn to hormones, brains, and behaviours, the picture gets even messier.Or so argues Princeton Professor Agustín Fuentes, a leading expert on human biology. His new book, Sex Is a Spectrum, came out this week. It makes the case that biology no longer supports a sharp separation between male and female. Whether you agree with Fuentes or not, it's an argument worth taking seriously.We had a great conversation, ranging from hermaphroditic worms to sex-changing fish, and from gender stereotypes to intersex humans. At times, I pushed back. But I learned a lot throughout the conversation. I hope you do too.Thoughts about Fuentes's argument? Or my takes? Share them at onhumans.substack.com.

Painful periods could be a sign of PCOS. The lack of conversations about women's health issues is a significant concern. This podcast helps educate women on important health topics, empowering them to become their own health advocates. SHE MD gives women the knowledge they need to have informed discussions with their doctors.Would You And Your Spouse Agree To Have One Fling A Year Before Marriage? No! Of course, you wouldn't. But live and learn. Aurora did just that and regrets that decision. Her story about her husband's flings will make your head spin. Open Marriage And Swingers—Do Those Marriages Stand The Test Of Time? It might seem exciting, but if you're hoping for a lasting marriage, consider whether you know of any swinging relationships that have endured.Men And Women View Sex Differently. For a man, a fling might just be casual, while his wife may see it as a deep betrayal, knowing that for her, an affair would likely involve emotional attachment. This reflects the idea that men and women approach relationships from different perspectives; as the saying goes, "Men are from Mars, women are from Venus."Does a Woman Disconnect from Her Husband After Childbirth? Many significant changes occur after having a child. Physically, a woman's body is different. Her focus often shifts as well, with her attention now centered on caring for her baby, which can impact her relationship with her husband. It can take time to resume intimacy, especially if she's breastfeeding, as this adjustment period requires patience.Does Being Sober Curious Resonate With You? Are you curious about living a sober lifestyle? The "sober curious" movement is real and encourages people to rethink their relationship with alcohol. It's about questioning why you drink and whether it's enhancing or complicating your life. Are you drinking because of a social event, the time of day or another reason? Does this resonate with you?IN THIS EPISODE, HERE IS WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT: (00:00) Introduction(4:00) Aurora talks about her podcast(6:30) PCOS symptoms and miscarriage(11:14) Divorce, monogamy, and childbirth(26:20) Getting serious about finding a man and the latest dating apps(29:00) What does being sober curious look like and Aurora talks about exercise and meditationRESOURCES:Aurora Culpo - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auroraculpo/?hl=enBarley Filtered - Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/barely-filtered/id1675375857GUEST BIOGRAPHY: Aurora CulpoAurora Culpo is best known for starring in the Discovery+ series The Culpo Sisters alongside her sisters Olivia Culpo and Sophia Culpo.

Human beings show a range of emotional attachment, affection, and infatuation often referred to as “love”. Love promotes long-lasting and secure relationships that involve nurturing and support. Biological mechanisms underlying such behavior involve ancient neuropeptides and their receptors in the brain. These systems are also involved in reproduction, ranging from mating and pair-bonding, to giving birth and lactation. They shape the earliest experiences of all mammals and their mothers. The concept of love and how we experience it are affected by culture and its diverse societal norms. This symposium will explore the evolutionary roots of human love, compare human love to corresponding emotions in other animals, consider human conditions that prevent the expression of such feelings, and examine the key role of love and affection for our development and daily lives.  Series: "CARTA - Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny" [Humanities] [Science] [Show ID: 40506]

When it comes to finding happiness, many religions see marriage as the gold standard: a path to love, stability, and fulfillment. But is that really true? And if so, why are marriage rates plummeting in so many parts of the world?In this episode, we'll talk to anthropologist Joseph Henrich about the surprising history of marriage and monogamy, including how these institutions helped lay the groundwork for much of our modern way of life. We'll also speak with psychologist Geoff MacDonald about what it means to live a happy, single life in a world that often prioritizes partnership, and why marriage might not offer the best road to fulfillment for everyone. Joseph Henrich is the Ruth Moore Professor of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University, and the author of The WEIRDest People in the World: How the West Became Psychologically Peculiar and Particularly Prosperous. Geoff MacDonald is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Toronto, where he leads the MacDonald Social Psychology Research Laboratory, which aims to study well-being in singlehood.

For nearly two centuries, Joseph Smith's involvement in polygamy has been a point of controversy. Historians and more recently, LDS leaders, have affirmed that the Mormon prophet took dozens of wives. But a growing movement within the Church is challenging that narrative, arguing that Smith was a monogamist—and that polygamy was a later invention used to justify the actions of Brigham Young and other church leaders.One of the most vocal advocates of this perspective is Michelle Stone, creator of 132 Problems: Revisiting Mormon Polygamy, a YouTube channel with nearly 120,000 subscribers. A lifelong member of the LDS Church, Michelle once had a strong testimony of polygamy, believing it was divinely inspired. But everything changed ten years ago when her husband questioned whether polygamy was ever truly of God. Determined to prove him wrong, Michelle embarked on a deep dive into historical records—only to find herself questioning whether Joseph Smith practiced polygamy at all.Now, she joins Mormon Stories to share her research, her faith journey, and why she believes the Church has it wrong on one of the most controversial chapters in its history.Show NotesYouTubeMormon Stories Thanks Our Generous Donors!Help us continue to deliver quality content by becoming a donor today: One-time or recurring donation through Donorbox Support us on Patreon PayPal VenmoOur Platforms: YouTube Patreon Spotify Apple PodcastsContact us:MormonStories@gmail.comPO Box 171085, Salt Lake City, UT 84117Social Media: Insta: @mormstories TikTok: @mormonstoriespodcast Join the Discord
