Celebrities are baring their #Nipples, flouting one of the last feminine #Taboos.

This was the year of nipple visibility, proving that baring this body part can be a political statement; a way to reclaim one’s own flesh.

This Was The Year of the Nipple

Celebrities baring this body part flouted one of the last feminine taboos. It's a reclamation of one’s own flesh

The question in this AMA just stopped me in my tracks:

”There are a bunch of young engineers and AI researchers in the world, of which I am one, who deeply believe in [.. humane principles for technology development ..], however it still appears we are racing towards tragedy. […]

Many of us are early in our careers and are concerned that if we speak out, it will harm our prospects.”

Ouch.

Interesting piece on the ideas of #sexstrike so troubling the US.

What this misses out is that #sexstrike was how we created human culture! And it was periodic -- not forever! Aligned to the #moon and #menstrualcycles
See 'Blood Relations' on this link

Sex Strike takes specific forms among #African #huntergatherers, that is #menstrual #taboos and rules about #brideservice which is the work a son-in-law does for his mother-in-law (she is boss) otherwise no nooky!

Blood Relations: Menstruation and the origins of culture - Chris Knight (complete book)

This highly original book presents a new theory of the origins of human culture. Integrating perspectives of evolutionary biology and social anthropology within a Marxist framework, Chris Knight rejects the common assumption that human culture was a modified extension of primate behaviour and argues instead that it was the product of an immense social, sexual and political revolution initiated by women.
