| 0:00.0 | Hey, dessert listeners, we've had podcast episodes before in which we talked about parapherias |
| 0:12.6 | in which people exhibit preference or compulsions for sadomasochism or voyeurism or exhibitionism, |
| 0:24.9 | other kinds of, and then it can get a little darker like wanting to actually harm other people |
| 0:31.0 | while having sex. And we talked about them in detail, but what we didn't get to is perhaps |
| 0:39.3 | why we evolved these things. Because, you know, it's hard to nail that down, but I thought |
| 0:46.4 | we would have you vault lower on the podcast and see is an expert on these sorts of things. |
| 0:52.4 | Welcome to the podcast, you've all. Thank you for having me. This is the psychology and |
| 0:56.3 | shadow podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Kirk Honda. I'm a therapist and a professor. You've all, |
| 1:02.1 | uh, can you introduce yourself, please? Uh, yes, I'm Yuvalo. I live in Colorado and Boulder, |
| 1:07.8 | and, uh, I have a PhD in culture studies, uh, which I wrote about the evolution of the capacity |
| 1:14.2 | for further and, uh, all and religious conversion. And right now, I'm turning that into a book, so. |
| 1:20.5 | What will the book be called? Well, the, the current title is either the infatuated primate or |
| 1:26.3 | the eye inspired primate. So the episode today, um, it's about the sexual perverted primate. So, |
| 1:34.8 | help us understand that. Uh, well, so, uh, we need to situate that within, um, uh, context. So, |
| 1:43.0 | let me start by, uh, uh, introducing, uh, uh, a thing called sexual imprinting, which is |
| 1:49.0 | in, in animals. Primarily, we see it in birds, but it probably exists in, in many other, |
| 1:54.6 | in many mammals as well. And sexual imprinting, like other types of imprinting means that there |
| 2:01.6 | is a sensitive period in development when the bird will, uh, uh, decide or, you know, it's not |
| 2:10.6 | that it's conscious, but the bird will determine who it is that she wants or he wants to have sex with. |
| 2:17.6 | Yeah. It's similar to the more well-known phenomenon of some birds imprinting on who is their |
| 2:25.4 | mother that they're going to follow around. So yeah, I think most people know that if you are there |
| 2:32.6 | at a particular time for a young bird and you're giving food and you're giving warmth and attention, |
