Act Two is where it really gets going.
I really, really am not a MRA or anything like that--I identify myself to other people as a feminist. This line still bothered me; Idk, maybe I'm the exception, but I'm not exactly consumed by kinky sexual fantasies every day at the slightest provocation. I'm not going to launch into some bullshit about how oppressed and stereotyped men are, because it's simply not true in my opinion, but I just didn't appreciate this stereotype making an appearance. That being said, the rest of the article was a really fun read! I really liked how the stories all started interacting with one another.Also, men. You knew, in a vague way, that men thought about sex all the time. But you didn’t realize the, um, content of some of their sexual fantasies. Is it even legal to fantasize about that? You want to be disgusted with them. But you realize that if you were as horny as they were all the time, you’d do much the same.
Ah, yeah, it's really no big deal. It struck me at first, since I thought the article was going to take things more seriously than it did--and I'm glad it was silly throughout! I recognize it now as humor, but it flew over my head at the beginning of it. On the bright side, I really enjoyed the story, and I've started reading Worm as well, based on your recommendation lower on this post!
Very good, i was half expecting Blacks paper to say "DONT MESS WITH TIME TURNERS" although here its a stable time line while in HPMOR it involved recursive unstable time loops. I have only recently started reading some of Scotts other articles, some lesswrong items and i also started the HPMOR book this week. Enjoying all of it so far.
SlateStarCodex has essentially my favorite food-for-thought articles of all time.
