Or as Katie Roiphe once said to me, explaining why she hated Gloria Steinem,feminists are "humorless and anti-sex." A roughly equivalent level of caricature. Denial isn't just about "rejecting" something - it's about the nature of that rejection. A disproportionately or weirdly intense rejection of somet ...

Chris Doss wrote: >Mine usually involve my visa application being denied. A friend of mine - a naturalized US citizen - is married to a woman from Uzbekistan. If she returns to Uzbekistan, she's likely to be boiled alive, or shot, or something like that, because she's a journalist who's written critically about the regime. But the INS is telling her she's got to go back there for two years before she can re-apply to come here. Appeals are underway, but it's really messy. Doug

I could swear that neurotransmitter explanations of affective disorders would qualify as biological reduction, and maybe even the vulgar kind, and certainly evo psych could qualify, but how is psychoanalysis "biological"?

[this is from the WSJ.com nightly roundup] U.S. Metro Areas See Record Housing Boom Speaking of interest rates, the Fed's (previously) super-low rates have helped fuel a housing boom, according a new government study. More U.S. housing markets are booming than at any time in at least 30 years, according to Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. analysis of government housing data. Although that may not mean a wave of bad-news "busts" is on the way, the risks could be high. Of 362 U.S. metropo ...

Wall Street Journal - April 29, 2005 SCIENCE JOURNAL By SHARON BEGLEY Evolutionary Psych May Not Help Explain Our Behavior After All Like almost everyone else, David J.
