…that’s not what secondary sex characteristic means. As the article you linked says, that just means physical characteristics unrelated to the reproductive system that differ between the sexes. Some of the other examples given include the Adam’s apple in men and longer arms relative to height in women. While some of these things can be sexually attractive or related to sexual attractiveness in some way, certainly we don’t societally put them in the same sexual category as women’s breasts.

I see this a lot in car-dependent cities… the street entrance is closed and you have to go through the parking lot, which just sucks especially if the neighborhood is otherwise walkable.

55·8 个月前If you don’t want people driving who aren’t in a mental state where they should be driving, then you need good viable alternatives to driving. Otherwise people will continue to suck it up and drive when they are tired, sick, stressed, had a single beer, etc.

The way mantis shrimp see is nonetheless super cool and interesting. They likely have no conception of 2D color at all, and can only sense the 12 different colors in general. Furthermore, only the midband of their eyes see color, when the eyes are moving and scanning for prey, they don’t see color at all, which probably helps offload mental load for their small brains. Once they do see something, they then stop moving their eyes to determine the color of what they’re looking at.
Also, mantis shrimp have 6 more photoreceptors in addition to the 12 colored ones, to detect polarized light. They likely see them the same way that they see color, so they probably don’t consider them anything different than wavelength which is what we interpret as color.
Ed Yong’s An Immense World has a section on this and I’d highly recommend it. The ways animals sense and perceive the world are often so different for ours and it’s so fascinating.

They’ve just gutted the State Department Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor. They’re continuing efforts from the previous Trump admin to redefine it based on “natural rights”. In the first post on the new State Department substack (an absurd phrase), Marco Rubio called the bureau “a platform for left-wing activists to wage vendettas against ‘anti-woke’ leaders in nations such as Poland, Hungary, and Brazil, and to transform their hatred of Israel into concrete policies such as arms embargoes,” and their new “senior advisor” is a 26-year-old Catholic theocrat who wants to completely 180-reverse the purpose of this bureau to go after foreign officials who have properly enforced their democratic laws (eg those who prosecuted Le Pen for embezzlement). They’ve successfully converted the human rights bureau into supporting rather than opposing human rights abuses in the name of supposed freedom of speech and religion. Even after this administration ends, there’s no way the US diplomatic apparatus can really go back to supporting human rights abroad the way it used to.
