Sexual Disorientation

Dr Ramani and Silvia Saige answer your questions about men's shifting place in society – like whether or not to think of them as poop-flinging primates. Alpha male dominance is seen across many mammal species. One listener questions how men (and women!) can ignore these deep seated instincts. Ramani and Silvia incisively break down why nature provides zero justification for alpha behavior – in fact, nature may actively demonstrate its failings, as Dr. Robert Sapolsky discovered. But first, a listener struggles with her expectations for quality communication from her partner, and another woman wonders whether her lover's social media obsession means he's a narcissist. A perfect podcast for the "old-fashioned alpha male" in your life – even if that's you. -- Dr Ramani Durvasula (@doctorramani) is a licensed clinical psychologist and Professor of Psychology. Silvia Saige (@silviasaigexxx, @silviasaigesex) is an adult film actress and standup comedian. Write the show, ALWAYS ANONYMOUS: sexualdisorientation@gmail.
