This could have been an essay.
The title says it all. Economic independence and a generally egalitarian superstructure makes sex less coercive and commodified.
I did pog though when she mentioned my GOAT Mark Fisher

Possibly the most important political text of the 21st century and it funnily enough would not even sit in the politics aisle in a book store. Sapolsky closes all of the gaps into which free will was in the past shoved into and goes toe-to-toe with a swathe of philosophers to prove it. And the derived policies are radical...ly leftist (as all good policy is). Punishment is irrational and so is reward for "exceptional merit".
Be glad for all the ways you got lucky, work towards compensating the misfortune of others with the power you possess, "quarantine" those who pose a threat to others and try to help their re-entry into society. That's all that you really need to take away, but if everyone did, the world would be an unrecognizable utopia.
The book could definitely be shorter overall, Sapolsky still loves his tangents as much as during those lectures on early YouTube. Due to the earth-shattering scientific clarity with which free will is debunked and its implications for society, I would want a shortened ~100 page version to recommend to people to get the gist, but alas that does not seem to be in the cards.
The audiobook version was fine, but I really was disappointed that it was not Sapolsky voicing it. You can "hear" his voice in the text still, so it is uncanny in parts.
