Hormones, Ideology, and the Cost of Dissent with Carole Hooven

Hormones, Ideology, and the Cost of Dissent with Carole Hooven

My guest today is evolutionary biologist Carole Hooven. If you’ve followed her story, you know she was effectively pushed out of Harvard for articulating a basic biological fact—and doing it politely. We talk through her research on hormones, rough-and-tumble play, aggression, and libido; what puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones actually do; why sports can’t be reorganized around “hormone levels”; and how elite institutions reacted to her saying things they all once taught. This is a conversation about evidence, not slogans—and about the cost of speaking plainly. Carole Hooven is a non-resident senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and an associate in Harvard’s psychology department. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
