Men ogle women because they are hard-wired for that impulse. Threats of severe punishment for simply obeying a categorical imperative shall prove to be ineffectual in the long run, and using some aspect of “science” to “prove” that some desired outcome can be achieved by ignoring very real basic fact demeans the scientific method, and is a call for failure.
There is no such thing as “settled science”. Any postulate, any theory, can be turned upon its ear by a more accurate assessment of existing basic fact, and in fact, has often happened. Denial of part of the spectrum of basic fact leads to selective blindness and erroneous conclusions, resulting in sometimes generations of individuals having a wholly skewed vision of the world.
“Settled science” and “settled law” means the liberals win and can no longer be challenged. Maybe that’s why the two McC’s never challenge “settled law”.
