Is the clitoral orgasm in women favored by natural selection? Apparently not, according to Professor Elisabeth Lloyd, a leading philosopher of biology at Indiana University, Bloomington. What is revealing about the culture of the blogosphere is the outpouring of ignorant denunciations this has produced. Professor Lloyd responds generously and patiently here (for more generously than the stupid venality of a number of these comments warrant!). An interesting question is whether her reply will stop the smears and distortions? (Do also see Professor Millstein's apt comments at the same site.)
(Thanks to Robert Skipper for the pointer.)
