Two separate universities were peddling terrible science-Durham and Bristol no less!
1.Durham tell me that monkeys smell the genes of suitable mates!
This is clearly due to (and therefore confirmation of) natural selection. WE don`t know HOW they do this but we can say that they do it deliberately! This confirms the famous 'smelly T-shirt tests' of the 90s and shows that we too will no doubt 'unconsciously' choose our mates in the same way-hold the Downs Syndrome research please! This was Durham University Anthropology Departments offering!
2. Bristol tell me that-on this the day of a 'strategic policy announcement' by the Government by happy coincidence-that a survey of 1300 girls and vulnerable Young women shows that all men and boys are 'totally beastly'. They need to be told early in primary school that domestic violence is' inappropriate '('out of order!' for those less gifted maybe?) and the senior research 'fellow'(surely Harman needs another word here!)-one Quango Christine Barter(honest!)-tells us that they all lack self-esteem(natch!). This is what Bristol's Centre for Gender and Violence(formerly under Luton University's wing until all equality was removed there in 2005!) offered us up to the news at 8.00!

So my points?
James Naughtie may know his opera but does he have the first clue about science-a survey of 1300 girls say that boys can be 'totally' a pain-did Barter ask Jane Andrews? is 1300 a sufficient survey size?-might not her department get a little funding and support for its agenda?-were the NSPCC and other charities helpful-and why today to coincide with State plans?..so many questions!
Are the great gods of 'equality and men bashing' as well as Darwins theory (no chance mate-its fact or you`re excommunicated from the funding streams!) to be indulged by the liberal arts graduates who put these asinine gobbets of pseudo science into the mouths of the Today presenters?
Lets hear no more about dumbing down from Durham or Bristol unless they set out whether their funding depends on getting on Naughties stump to smear teatree oil over all their academic reputations-UEA ought to warn them that it`s slippery out there!
