(Don’t intend to spark a conversation over the ethical aspects - that is a whole different topic for another time and place - , but this is pretty interesting background wrt the increased attraction of ovulating women to a high-none phero signature).
Bovens is an economist at LSE, not any authority on the subject.. so I don’t give his arguments that much weight first of all..
And it was actually published first in the Journal of Medical Ethics… again, not a great source for authoritative scientific data…
Bovens himself says “This assumption is not backed up by empirical evidence, but does have a certain plausibility..” plausibility with whom?
Well I dont think theres any way you could prove such a thing without some scientific methos that may be arguably immoral themselves, but it is ridiculous
to say you wont give credit to someonebodys argument because they are “not an authority on the subject.” Anyone who’s facts are ones you believe are true should be given equal credit in a debate.
