If anyone’s wondering who Jesse Bering is and why he’s related to that quote from yesterday:
A few years ago I was listening to Science for the People (as I used to do), and they had an interview with Jesse Bering about his then-recent book Perv: The Sexual Deviant in All of Us. He was going on about how men’s sexualities are narrow and stable while women’s sexualities are broad and fluid, a spectrum with exclusive paraphiles at one end and @sinesalvatorem at the other.
And this felt really familiar, and at first I wasn’t sure why. And then I realised:
This was not the first time that I had been accused of having an extreme male brain.
I should start compiling a list of times I’m used as an example of an extreme version of a feminine mental trait, since it’s strangely frequent and cool.

I thought you might appreciate that. :)Didn’t know it was strangely frequent, though.
