Introduction / Summary (May 2008): Hello!
Welcome to our Evolutionary Philosophy of Human Sexuality pages. The video provides a good introduction which we think you will enjoy!
Sex is obviously important to people - and if you want to improve your
sexual relationships then knowing the truth about our human evolution is
the best foundation. By opening our minds to a greater diversity of behaviors,
this knowledge will help you creatively cultivate healthy pleasurable moral
attitudes and sexy smutty relationships (free from religious guilt & cultural myths).
About
this Philosophy Website on Truth and Reality: We are listed as one of the top Philosophy Websites on the Internet with around 500,000 page views each week. The central thesis of philosophy is that we must know the truth to act wisely and truth is founded on a correct
understanding of physical reality. Clearly people have a strong sexual instinct due to our evolution and survival as a species. However, our planet faces many serious environmental problems, thus our survival now depends on a true understanding of our place in nature,
as a way of better protecting life on earth. Truth and reality are beautiful
subjects which are profoundly important to our future survival - they are
the source of wisdom, the foundation for everything you see and experience
in the universe!

Definition of Sexual Harassment
From the website: 'Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination that
violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal
or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes sexual harassment when
submission to or rejection of this conduct explicitly or implicitly affects
an individual's employment, unreasonably interferes with an individual's
work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work
environment.
Sexual harassment can occur in a variety of circumstances, including but
not limited to the following:
* The victim as well as the harasser may be a woman or a man.
* The harasser can be the victim's supervisor, an agent of the employer,
a supervisor in another area, a co-worker, or a non-employee.
* The victim does not have to be the person harassed but could be anyone
affected by the offensive conduct.
* Unlawful sexual harassment may occur without economic injury to or discharge
of the victim.
* The harasser's conduct must be unwelcome.'
From the website: 'If you are experiencing sexual harassment, there are
a variety of steps you can take.
Know your rights. Sexual harassment is illegal. The EEOC (Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission) requires all organizations with more than 15 employees
to have policies and procedures to deal with sexual harassment.
Speak up at the time. Be sure to say "NO" clearly, firmly and
without smiling. There is a chance that the harasser does not realize the
behavior is offensive; you must be firm in saying that you are offended.
Keep records. Keep track of what happens and keep any notes or documents
you receive. Write down the dates, times, places, an account of what happened
and the names of any witnesses.
Report sexual harassment to the appropriate person in the organization.
Schools and employers are required to have policies and procedures for
dealing with sexual harassment. You can use those policies and procedures
to make an informal or a formal complaint against the person who harasses
you.
File a complaint with your state agency that deals with employment discrimination
or with the EEOC.'
From the website: 'The literature suggests that sexual harassment is a
widespread phenomenon, affecting 42% of women and 15% of men in occupational
settings, 73% of women and 22% of men during medical training, and lower
percentages in other educational settings. Despite the pervasive nature
of this problem, only 1% - 7% of victims file formal complaints.
Sexual harassment produces an array of psychological and physical symptoms
in over 90% of victims, and 12% seek help from mental health care professionals.
Self-doubt is a central issue regardless of gender, but in instances where
the perpetrator is male and the victim is female, there are ramifications
unique to the trauma of gender-based abuse.
Few experimental studies have focused on the victims of sexual harassment,
and none have focused on the perpetrators. Psychiatry can play an invaluable
role in the assessment and treatment of victims, the fostering of education
and research in this area, and the understanding of underlying psychological
and gender issues.'
An overview of Sexual Harassment. By Charney DA,
Russell RC. Am J Psychiatry. 1994 Jan;151(1):10-7.
From the website: 'Our analysis predicts that behaviors identified as
harassing by men stem from negotiations of gender in the workplace that
challenge male dominance, whereas behaviors experienced by women as sexually
harassing reinforce female subordinance.
Consistent with our predictions, results indicated the following: men
are considerably less threatened than women are by behaviors that women
have found harassing; men find sexual coercion the most threatening form
of harassment; men as well as women sexually harass men, and men identify
behaviors as harassing that have not been identified for women. Results
also showed signs of backlash among men against organizational measures
that address sexual harassment and discrimination against women.'

Introduction -
The following search results provide us with fascinating information
on the diversity of sexual behaviors (and fantasies!) that people find
interesting. In total there are around 17 million 'adult' searches
per day, which equates to about 5% of total searches on the Internet. While
it is fun just to browse through the results to see what people search,
they also provide us with important information that helps us better
understand the truth about our biological and cultural evolution. See: Top

Searching for Truth - While most people may
not think about 'truth' very often, it is clearly important to us, being
necessary if we are to think and act wisely (philosophy is
founded on this). While these pages explore the truth about our sexuality,
this philosophy website also
has a strong physics and metaphysics foundation
(i.e. the study of physical
reality as the ultimate / absolute source of truth).
Given the state of the world, the 'Inconvenient
Truth' about Global Warming and Climate Change, thus the necessity
for humanity to think and act more wisely, it is a sobering fact that
few people search subjects such as Truth (4,000), Reality (3,000), Physics
(2,000), Philosophy (1,000), Metaphysics (500), Truth and Reality (10).
i.e. There are about 100 'adult' searches for every 1 science related
search. While sex is obviously important to us (for pleasure and survival),
it is clear that truth and reality are also important for our future
survival. So we hope that you will stop and think about truth
and reality from time to time - look at the world and think about how
you (and everything around you) exists
in Space - there is a simple
solution.

The
free, unhampered exchange of ideas and scientific conclusions is necessary
for the sound development of science, as it is in all spheres of cultural
life. ... Only the individual can think, and thereby create new values for
society, nay, even set up new moral standards to which the life of the community
conforms.
(Albert Einstein)
