There seems to be a whole group of men who believe they will have more sex under fascism.

But let me clear something up for you. Fascism doesn’t promise more sex. It promises more rape.

If that’s the path you’re taking to get sexual access to women, then you’re on the path of becoming a rapist.

Columbia University has handed over its undergraduate admissions process to Donald Trump and his MAGA allies, who will now decide at their sole discretion whether the university has admitted enough white people. It's no longer an independent institution.

📖Just wrapped up the research of compersion by @drmariethouin

Did you know there are actually TWO distinct types of compersion? One is like an attitude, an ethical foundation even when the feelings aren’t there, while the other is like the joyous feeling and physical sensation of endorphin rush.
Martin Luther King Jr. is well-known for fighting for Civil Rights, bus boycotts, the “I Have a Dream” speech, and non-violent protest. But in his later life, he extended his philosophy toward global justice and interconnected his criticism of poverty to the problem of fighting in Vietnam.

Well it’s for a book review rather than an article.
The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy?
What are some good scholarly journals that would be interested in doing a book review on the philosophy of sex education? It would also touch upon moral philosophy, gender studies, public policy, public health, and psychology.
