There is nothing necessarily unethical or unreasonable about eating human flesh, declare psychologists Jared Piazza and Neil McLatchie of Lancaster University, but careful reasoning over the merits of cannibalism is often “overridden by our feelings of repulsion and disgust.”
While not going so far as to recommend cannibalism, saying “there is no need to overcome our repulsion for the foreseeable future,” the two authors suggest that humans could master their aversion for human flesh if they needed to.
“Many people develop disgust for all kinds of meat, while morticians and surgeons quickly adapt to the initially difficult experience of handling dead bodies,” they note. “Our ongoing research with butchers in England suggests that they easily adapt to working with animal parts that the average consumer finds quite disgusting.”
Moreover, the psychological revulsion experienced over the prospect of consuming human flesh is not the product of reason and may even contradict reason, they argue in Wednesday’s article, which originally appeared last week in The Conversation.

This sounds like a recipe for spreading disease.
Venezuela - that is what is about to break in news.
There is the kuru brain disease caused by cannibalism. Then again, maybe a lot of lefties seem to already have it. Maybe they have been eating aborted fetuses.

Well Done,

There are many billions of people who have not eaten humans.
"Eeeuh, with a gammy leg?"

You know, if we don’t laugh we’ll end up crying. One thing we better quickly come to terms with is that our opposition is not composed of people who can be reasoned with.
Jeffrey Dahmer had no aversion to cannibalism, and there have been others as well. But thankfully their culinary delight has not caught on. Newsweek is such a stupid publication. Not sure how they even stay in business.
