Here is an older post on my blog criticizing feminists who reduce women’s preferences down to a desire for “respect” from men, and who deny that there are salient sex differences in women’s preferences.
The same tropes came up in recent debate between feminists and PUAs, where the feminists denied that anything PUAs do is actually attractive to women. (Generalizing from their own preferences, with no references to any sort of empirical evidence.)
See my responses here, here, and here. There are a few more in the thread, too.
Thanks… I plan on getting back to this post soon, either here or on my blog, and if I don’t feel free to bug me.
Just curious, did you ever followup on this?
I’m actually writing up some stuff for my blog that addresses these issues. I’ll link when it’s up.
Ok, here we go...
