Genetic link between face and brain shape

Researchers have identified 76 overlapping genetic locations that shape both our face and our brain. What the researchers didn't find is evidence that this genetic overlap also predicts someone's behavioral-cognitive traits or risk of conditions such as Alzheimer's…

A note about this study: the authors concluded that one cannot determine behavior from one’s face alone, but logic tells us that a gradient of behavior could be determined. If you walk up to somebody you may not be able to determine that they are a thief or an accountant. But if you new general trends from a certain demographic you could make a judgment call on the cusp of what most likely they could do.

“As one might expect from such research, genetic differences are related to brain structure and function, and these influences appear strongest for areas of the brain involved in language, attention, visual, emotional and sensorimotor processing”

Basically there are many differences between African American and White American cohorts, although the authors rightfully say that larger samples are needed, as it seems there aren’t enough studies exploring the differences of brain structure between these two groups.

Unisex changing rooms put women in danger

"Unisex changing rooms are more dangerous for women and girls than single-sex facilities, research by The Sunday Times shows. Almost 90% of reported sexual assaults, harassment and voyeurism in swimming pool and sports-centre changing rooms happen in unisex facilities, which make up less than half the total.
Gender-neutral changing is growing as councils seek to cut staff costs and cater to transgender people."

Swedish scientists prosecuted for finding that most rapes are committed by immigrants

"The published results show that immigrants are not only disproportionately overrepresented in rape cases, but despite being a minority in Sweden, they commit the vast majority of sexual violence. This is despite the fact that the study only analyzed cases between the period of 2000 and 2015, that is, before the enormous 2015 influx of migrants from the Middle East and Africa."

Hutcherson et al. (2021) asked a group of social scientists and a group of average Americans to make predictions about the societal consequences of the pandemic and how large these consequences would be. They find that social scientists were just as accurate in their predictions as average people, and less accurate when controlling for personal-confidence. In a world where the “expert consensus” is taken at face value, these “experts” seem to be notoriously unreliable.

Response to popular tranny study, Turban et al 2019

DeAngelo et al (2020) : “Turban et al.’s (2019) singular endorsement of “affirmative” therapies, which their data failed to substantiate, contributes to the alarming trend to frame any non-“affirming” approaches as harmful. We are deeply concerned that this false dichotomy, reinforced by Turban et al.’s unproven claims of the harms of GICE, will have a chilling effect on the ethical psychotherapists’ willingness to take on complex GD patients, which will make it much harder for GD individuals to access quality mental health care. We maintain that availability of a broad range of non-coercive, ethical psychotherapies for individuals with GD is essential to meaningful informed consent, which requires consideration of the full range of treatment options, from highly invasive to non-invasive. Further, given the potential of agenda-free psychotherapy to ameliorate GD non-invasively among young people with GD, withholding this type of intervention, while promoting “affirmation” approaches that pave the way to medical transition, is ethically questionable.”
