What determines sex and gender, and what detemines sexual identity? Take a look at this debate where Helena Cronin, Darwinist feminist and Director of the LSE’s Centre for the Philosophy of Social and Natural Science, and Tim Spector, Professor of Genetic Epidemiology at King’s College London debate on nature vs. nurture, and what role genetics play in our lives.
Helena: “[There are] evolved sex-differences”; Tim: “Not culture nor genes alone determine our sexuality”.
The debate is made available by The Institute of Art and Ideas (iai), a non-profit organisation committed to fostering a progressive and vibrant intellectual culture in the UK. Thank you Alysia at TVF Media for getting in touch with me and sharing this debate! Check it out here
