Episode 531: How I know what women want (their feelings don't matter)

My recent Soft White Underbelly talk on what women want received
a fair bit of criticism. How could I – a man – possibly know what
it feels like to be a woman? Shouldn't we let women speak for
themselves? In this episode, I respond to the argument at face
value and explain how it is that I know what women want. Though
it might sound callous, their feelings don't matter. The most
reliable means of establishing what women – or anyone – wants is
by observing their behavior with respect to limited resources.
