In this episode I talk about Frans de Waals research into sex and sexuality among nonhuman animals to help us understand ourselves.

In this episode I continue talking about what I am learning from the book Different, Gender Through the Eyes of a Primatologist, by Frans de Waal. It includes thoughts on how we sometimes don't see what is alive in the real world and how that can create errors in our thoeries or beiefs. I also talk aboout a female chmpanzee, Donna, whose life transgresses dualistic ideas about sex and gender.

The first of a series of episodes on biology and gender. Where does our gender identity come from and what is it?

To hold myself accountable to live up to my values on my other podcast Sacred Gyre, and to provide a place to express my personal beliefs and learnings in a way that lives up to thosee values I have started Butterfly Arose.
