Podcast Benomtad

We talk about what we don’t hear much talk about but which many women seem to sense, based on our feelings and experiences.  Experiences also in politically liberal areas with women doing traditionally male things.

The male suicide rate is about four times that of females.  Richard Reeves is a great resource for how men are falling behind and we talk about this issue, including gender relations.  How is the Boy Scouts… not for boys only?

At the beginning of our newest episode, we shoot the you-know-what about using our time, which is… modified by work, Youtube algorithms, and so forth.  We end on different ways of knowing, including Vervaeke’s idea of the limited nature of propositional knowing.

In our discussion on objects of thought and powerful mental images, we expand how these images, like those of statues of gods, can help with mundane habits.

In the discussion on Rousseau’s objects of thought, I relate an image from Hayao Miyazaki’s Princess Mononoke, which calmed and focused me in a time of life living in a crowded urban area and feeling rather frazzled.  For LL it was classical art and sculpture, especially the religious kind that “became a symbol for me of going higher… going beyond the mundane in life.”  She says it speaks to the heart and helps one’s daily (mundane) habits.

Pornography viewing among children, which, disturbingly, is prevalent (for boys) and even hard to avoid online.  We talk about this in terms of Rousseau’s objects of thoughts discussion – how one should be careful what one gets influenced by (especially for children).

LL has reverted to worse eating habits.  What she’s done to help get back to where she was.  Part of her thinking is that she should focus on health as much as looks.  I read Rousseau on the desired objects of thought.  It’s sort of like your life becomes to some extent what you fix your mind on.

We talk about our bad habits and what we’ve done to do better.  LL limits rather than extinguishes her exposure.  Against strict willpower, total reliance on it.  And how she’s reverted.

We check in with each other about our experiments improving the Outlook (overall positive and negative emotion) dimension from Davidson’s The Emotional Life of your Brain. We both find, despite our only having invested several minutes’ time over the course of the week, that the results are impressive.  I talk about coupling those experiments with CBT ones for social anxiety.  I then read a near-quote from Rousseau’s Emile linking morality with habit and mental objects, and we talk about habit building and character-forming.  Finally, we end talking about the inspiration of certain images from art for thoughts of heaven (her) and feelings of earth (for me).
