It's not a conspiracy. It's consumerism. If you want more semi-naked male models, convince women they want more semi-naked male models.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/853547360651272192 …
It happens within the context produced by men & women. Women & men have different power around sex.

Isn't biological determinism kind of a shaky ground for a theory about how society is (or isn't) changing over time?
-
??? Biological aspects look at human animals, not society. Society is made up of human animals so all is relevant in different ways.
-
Biological determinism is pseudoscience akin to the naturalistic fallacy. Genuine biological research shows us to be overlapping populations
-
Yes…
And my point was that all the layers in between need to be explained as well. Instead of shortcutting it bottom to top. -
I'm not sure what that means. We can look at culture without considering biology & biology without considering culture. 1/2
-
I'd suggest that it is beneficial to consider both when talking about things like gender relations.
-
I agree with that. But I also think we shouldn't shortcut, e.g. "women are animals and like sex, ergo misogyny is not relevant"
-
I'd hope everyone would think that. Unfortunately, any focus on biology at all tends to be read this way.
