From sponsoring vigorous debates to hosting regular reading groups, from publishing new studies to highlighting thoughtful research for the public, the vision of the Austin Institute is to create a better-informed, more intelligent public discourse.
From Plato to Brideshead Revisited: How Beauty Shapes Us.
In this episode, Dr. Orlandi sat down with Dr. Scott Roniger, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, to discuss beauty, love, and faith. This time, the excuse was philosophical and literary ... all at once. Dr. Roniger, a philosophy of literature scholar, was recently the author of a paper bringing together the platonic symposium and Waugh's most famous novel. Tune in to hear about charm and beauty, about educating eros, and about metaphoric and embodied ascents to truth redemption.
Hopefully, Dr. Roniger will visit us in person soon too.

S3 E14 : Why Talking About Fidelity Now Matters More Than Ever with Dr. William Bellet
Gnostic bullshit. That's what it's called
Abortion not YOUR DNA 🧬 NOT YOUR BODY. dehumanisation and convenience were excuses for slavery and abortion …
A feminised males is not female. Femininity in males. A masculinised female is not male. Masculinity in females. Genuine cases extremely rare mainly in males approx one in 5000 before it became fashionable
As trans age person biological reality so yesterday
Why buy the cow when the milk is free.
Wow. I’ve never heard so much bullshit. If he had bothered to look at the entire issue back 60 years and everything that has been learned since he’d have a better grasp of sexual biology especially endocrin neurology and how our bodies actually function and develop sexually. Not just that but biased interpretation of a study( the very thing he claims of its authors) . Trans patients continue to seek therapy not because their treatment was unsuccessful but because of the way they are treated socially by others. Just ask one straight from the horses mouth, no interpretation of data needed.
The Economics changes with time. a). 'Men have the advantage - met plenty of men that never got married or reproduced, can't say they were the most fulfilled. Also met plenty of men that got slaughtered within the court system post marriage, same outcome.
Wow! You are missing a crucial point exemplified by two jokes: “What food kills a woman’s libido forever after? The weeding cake?” “How do you cure a nymphomaniac? You marry her.” I’m sure that there’s not truth to those two jokes… NOT. As Sinbad, the comedian says: “Even though Green Lantern gets his power from a ring, all married men know this is not so…” I recommend that the Austin Institute listen to all those videos and TED talks on YT that deal with married women withholding sex from their husbands, completely forgetting their 1st vow the made at the altar…, i.e. the basis of all marriages… This first vow implies that a married woman will not deny sex to her husband… Oh! Well! Another video missing more than half the real story!!!
This guy seems like another asshole with an agenda.
I think everybody on a UA-cam video is an asshole.
Men do not have the upper hand in short term relationships the top 1% of men have the upper hand. Hypergamy exists and the vast majority of men are invisible to women that’s why women chuck men in the friend zone and or into the husband zone to reduce their accountability
brain washing
If you have a friend you love , share them Dr. Abigale Favale materials. What a wonderful woman.
I just have to say that I've heard all my life that men have a higher sex drive and that has never once been true in my experience. All my male partners, long-term and short, have left me underwhelmed and wanting for more.
Also I have to say that a personal motivation for sex, maybe even the greatest one, is to calm my nervous system and feel safe. The hormones involved in a sexual encounter promote those feelings of well-being.
94% of transgender people reported being happier after transition. (Over 90,000 surveyed) From a different study, SRS regret rate is 2%, with the top regret of that 2% being "choice of surgeon". 10% face violence from a family member when they come out. 8% kicked out of the house. Another 10% run away from home. Suicide rate is sky high for trans kids pre-transition. By college age, 40% have attempted suicide. That's 40% of those alive at that age, so not including dead kids. Another 90s study found every trans woman and cis woman had a thicker corpus collosum and anterior collosum than men. The trans men similarly all had make brains. The talk was detailed, but felt it left out the most telling numbers from the largest sample size studies, for whatever reason. It helps to know what kind of suicide rate we're talking about for trans teens. Suicide rate was lower for the teens who said they have at least one supportive parents. That's where the "dead daughter or living son" dilena comes from.
God created us in His image. He wrote the Bible as a manual to teach us what's best-- the Manufacturers Instructions. This video simply offers pragmatic and economic explanations that confirm what God said. Sex belongs in marriage where the woman is protected, children are protected, culture is protected. The family is the smallest level of government. Men who are under a Higher Authority are men women can trust. Men who model Christ and protect and serve their families. People and cultures that reject this model suffer.
Interesting how this is talked about now in 2024 and is considered "misogyny" and "toxic masculinity."
This was such a great presentation
A video that actually managed to make me hate birth control wow. Men definitely in this day and age is getting the best of both world’s. Women competing for committed men and that’s when I realize I’m living in the worst time in life.
This is depressing
Very valuable information contained in this well articulated presentation, offering much needed clarity on this topic which is effecting all
Bravo sir. Your dedicated scholarship arms us to try to save the children and vulnerable . We live in a literally monstrous society.
So its prostitution? Except women dont have the drive to keep up with men and men cant have two women. Ussualy shown after kids
As usual: the speaker is obsessed with reproduction / fertility as a basis for valid distinctions. Again, the whole issue about gender as opposed to sex is that for many people who are not religious / do not subscribe to traditional values, that is absolutely not what makes our lives meaningful.
Well said. To summarize why buy the cow when the milk is free 😊
Greetings from Terf Island!
You know the value of a one night stand You know the value of a platonic friendship You know your value and you know what you want…you really have the key.
😊
Under the Neurenberg code from 1947 which still stands is this all illegaal 😮
The Paradox institute vg on sex binary science. Gametes are the key. Also Colin Wright,Debra Soh,Bret Weinstein all biologists. SEX IS BINARY.
The obvious cure for children experiencing discomfort with their sexed bodies is developing resiliance while experiencing their natural puberty. Also addressing the wide spread occurrance of co-morbid mental health conditions, familial/social trauma, and developmental disorders with proper theraputic and family support, not medicalization.
Medicalizing non sex-stereotypical children and vulnerable adults is extremely ignorant and regressive.
Sex is less enjoyable for me if I don’t have a deeper connection with a man. Am I alone in this matter?
As a man, going into marriage is suicide.
In the uk and from what ove heard the US, drs arent likely to give a woman a hysterectomy in cases of health problems in case they go on to want kids.
All that scribbling to finally deduce that the pill has had an impact on society...wow...shocking...thanx for the news flash!
This video is timely for the culture of today because with the overturn of Roe v Wade women have not wanted sex and only want a guy who will commit to a long-term relationship and provide for the family which isn't a bad thing given that more younger women are waiting for marriage to have sex which forces young men to man up and not seek women as objects but as someone worth pursuing a life with.
Marriage can exist between two people that are engaging with he pure phenomenon on LOVE - not between a man and a woman. Stop imposing your personal criteria on love.
an interesting take, if women collectively set their standards higher, we would have better prospect instead of settling for the bare minimum
There are more men than women until the age of 32-33, not the other way around
all the money you make from being a pick me boy for the right, turns into more dead trans kids. you're a sick human being
12> min onward clarifies a lot. But all very worthwhile listening
I have recently concluded that social media has brainwashed the masses into accepting fictional scripts whereby sterilizing minors is ok,renting women for birthing,purchasing DNA material are considered necessary and the public health systems need to sponser these wishes or risk being labeled transphobic or fascist.
2022 and i still show this video to friends when the conversation arises.
Wow 55:50
I'm sorry but that conclusion was not backed up by the information you provided. That came out of left field.
Cancel all labels. It is the labels that are the problem. Labels create artificial divisions. To label people generates war and murder. To label oneself generates war and murder. Labels create chaos. Stop talking labels! Stop making up labels! Stop labels. Stop any reference to labels, in ANY form; in dress, in color and style of hair, in style of speaking, in behavior alltogether. These labels are also strangely linked to the strange word ´gender´ that is also stangely linked to sex, and then all personality and individuality is annihilated, because a persons individuality or personality can never even be superficially described by the sex.
We have to discuss this from the root philosophies. So many people are only addressing the transition of children as an issue without addressing that the science behind the entire idea is non-existent, that the insistence on body modification as a right entitling you to infiltrate female spaces legitimately puts women at risk, and that removing healthy tissue and treating mental disorders through the body has the potential to shift how we treat all psychological issues and opens up the space for any mental health issue to label itself as a civil rights issue and demand affirmation.
Excellent and we'll articulated point. One wonders if that is not the intended outcome of those advocating for this ideology rather than simple ignorant oversight
Incredible how you can use so many words to say not a single meaningful or true thing.
Trying to shutdown arguments that are challenging to you isn't the same as presenting counter arguments. I'm not easily bullied or bothered. You're coming off like a teenager trying to steer the conversation.
@@anarchist_parable Oh, if i actually presented real arguments, would you care?
Hey, man live in your world if you want to. You're drawing a lot of attention to your lack of insight on this topic. And, for the record because I know how people are, identity is not insight by default.
Women use sex as a power over men, like magic, and the romance is a performance to that end. It is her currency
Too many women willing to give it up for free, is what sums up this video. Lol, we ruined it for ourselves. The men win!
Gender identity is a big lie, read your Bible, turn to Jesus Christ and repent.
So what's the solution to this? How should women react? Become feminists? There's so much cheap love - especially online dating world. Men don't need to go to brothels, they don't have to pay, they don't have to do anything. They can just get a HOT girl with HOT body (plus intelligence) ALL FOR FREE these days. What a great world we live in... especially for men!! ;) And once married, women will work hard, they will earn money for you and the family and do house chores.
