Following up on last week's episode, some listeners (primarily female) have taken the position that Mike is misogynistic for his portrayal of the typical woman's strategy for finding a partner and for sex in general.
To respond to this, Mike provides a steel-manned case that he believes matches what these women believe. This was done in good faith in an effort to produce a convincing argument for how and why his own argument was misogynistic. A discussion then ensues about the quality of this case and whether it's actually a reasonable explanation of how women choose partners and pursue sex.
We also tackle the subject of a man who is upset because his female partner noticed that his penis isn't very big when flaccid and had some choice words to say about it. And, can a woman really be loose?
We get a lot of our questions from Reddit, so for our listeners' enjoyment, here are links to some of the questions we discussed this week:
