Summary

Friday Night Live 14 February 2025

In this episode, I examine the complexities of attraction and relationships, especially around Valentine's Day. We discuss how scent and immune system compatibility influence romantic preferences, along with the effects of hormonal birth control on women's attraction to long-term partners.

I also explore societal pressures on body image, the concept of "subsidizing attractiveness," and the challenges women face when dating standards shift. Additionally, I address the "alpha widow" phenomenon, highlighting the risks of transient attraction. Throughout the conversation, I underline the importance of empathy and a deeper understanding of love in our evolving relationships.

I am going out for a bit of a late dinner with my wife tonight, but we are doing a show first,

0:13.1

because when it comes to love, there's nothing that comes between me and the greatest audience

0:18.5

in the history of the world. Hey, come on. If this is the greatest show

0:22.7

in the history world, certainly what I'm in for, then you are the greatest audience. And thank you

0:26.2

for sticking through with philosophy through thick and thin, highs and lows, platforming,

0:34.1

and not quite so platforming. So I appreciate you being here.

0:38.5

And I am eager and happy and thrilled and excited

0:42.9

to take your questions.

0:45.8

1:11.9

So there was a study that was done not too long ago. And what they did was they measured

1:18.8

everybody's various immune strengths and weaknesses. And then they had them not bathe for

1:25.7

a while and then take their sweat, their pharynomes, their natural joy juice of Bonerville.
