Other fields have knowledge production problems, yes. The key is finding out what the problem is. In this case, it is a very specific ideology rooted in postmodernism that we wanted to show & we did. If you don't see a problem with the papers we wrote, the ones we cited & reviews
I think you need to read our papers and see what you are suggesting could have been plausible scholarship.

I mean, you really think it'd be more difficult to say you blew hundreds of grand running a particle accelerator to get this data and try to get it into some obscure particle physics journal?

I have already explained very clearly why this isn't related to the point or purpose of the project a few times now so I will leave it here.

And I've already explained that your methods are unrelated to proving the point or purpose of your project.

By the way,if we set aside the polemic use of "oppressive" here. It seems you think that the statement "admiration of muscle is rooted in societal norms" is a ridiculous thing to say.Does that mean you think there's some "genetic" (or whatever) predisposition to beauty standards?pic.twitter.com/Tl0W0COsQq

"Does that mean you think there's some "genetic" (or whatever) predisposition to beauty standards?" This is almost a joke-question. Have you SEEN the statues from ancient Greece? You do realise that their society was nothing like ours and they still admired those standards?
-
Ah yeah because the only two societies known to mankind are "ours" (whatever that may mean) and *checks notes* ancient Greece. Sure.

And by the way, last time I checked there wasn't any Greek statue looking like this.pic.twitter.com/lM6CHBJrjZ

I never said Greek statues looked like 2018 bodybuilders , that wasnt my argument. My argument was that Greek statues have the physical standards of muscle over fat. So its not a modern value. Also the Olympic Games come from the Greek so thats also not a modern standard.
-
When I think of beauty and whether or not there's some "determination" in "beauty standards" I'm not even thinking about muscle vs. fat. I was thinking more like: symmetry of features, particularly in the face.

The other stuff seems to get sexualized in pretty diverse ways (i.e. preferences), which is fine.
-
The reason sexualization is "diverse" is because while "beauty standards" is a positively ancient ideal. Sexualization is a modern idea same as diversity as a value also is a modern idea and have no historical foundation,

I read the article at least. Don't have infinite time. But the IAT experiment stood out. Experiments are expensive and hard to run. IRB approval & $, etc. You had 4 subjects and thousands of hours just to try to publish something in Porn Studies. And you're surpsied by an R&R?
