3 good articles

Researcher illegally shares millions of science papers free online to spread knowledge (Fiona MacDonald) (short) Halelujah, and more power to her. The paywall sites are charging exorbitant amounts given how low the real costs of publication are.

Attention Fellow Introverts: It's Time to Stop Beating Ourselves Up (Ashley Lauretta) (medium-length) I'm not an introvert (I'm a moderate extrovert), but I know and love many, and this article rings true to me.

The opposite of rape culture is nurturance culture (Nora Samaran) (long!) This is a really good synthesis of a lot of ideas about masculinity, development, and relationships. Highly recommended, but don't be in a rush. For people who are wondering how masculinity can fit with feminism, this is a really good place to look.

I'll grant that it implies more certainty than might be warranted. Like most classification schemes at early stages of their development, it tries to be a little too sharply delineated: I'm pretty sure there is actually a spectrum of some kind there.

I'm glad you liked it otherwise!

I'm pretty sure there's some useful/good stuff to attachment theory, too. And, yeah, it is going to be a spectrum, rather than sharply delineated. It was more the "science" rather than "theory" labeling when, as far as I know, "attachment theory" is the standard term used in the field that made me twitch, rather than how the author applied it.
