   For some reason Part 4 of "The Human Sexes" does not play. I've tried to engage it over several weeks to no avail.

   @Godzullasrage: I've replaced it. Hope it works now.

   Very interesting. Quite a time investment to watch them all, but I learned much.

   The episodes that discussed marriage actually strengthened my resistance to same sex marriage.

   Good show, well done.

   Wile there were lots of good points made, there were equally lots of really wild and just plain incorrect speculation on the evolutionary origins of many of our peculiar human behaviours.

   But I guess that's what one should expect from anthropology; as opposed to a real science. ; )

   Woonderful. One of th best documentaries I've ever seen. It's not biased, realistic, and it puts emphasis on love, tolerance and equality.

   interesting and overall pretty accurate, but many of the gender differences they stated are not fully supported by research, especially with the new psychological focus on differences between people rather than genders.
   People have to realize that it is very easy to ignore the influence of society on gender differences, but the environment we grow up in has a large part to do with what people perceive as innate differences between male and female humans.

   This is often a great blog. I have already been back many times during the last 7-day period and want to sign up for your rss feed implementing Google but can’t figure out the best way to do it accurately. Do you know of any tutorials?

    I was completely disgusted by one specific bit in part 6 – Gender Wars.

    The way the narrator made it sound as if lesbianism was a recent invention and were only constituted of feminist women who wanted to give up men is just wrong. Being gay, male or female, is not a choice and even if I was disappointed in men to the extent that I would want to give them up, I would never be a lesbian!

    I was in complete agreement with this documentary until this point…
