Julian blogged today on Hit & Run about the upcoming movie Kinsey. I almost skipped over it, but I'm glad I didn't. It was actually one of today's highlights, and I made a mental note to post this here today.
Snippet:
"Explaining his early research on gall wasps, Kinsey tells his
students that the hundreds of thousands he's seen are all quite
distinct, and that "if every living thing is different from every
other living thing, then diversity becomes life's irreducible fact."
And that's a nice sentiment: the idea that the important kind of
"diversity" isn't about a few prefabricated categories, but the more
interesting differences between any two individuals."
