comment Is Golden Ratio's association with perceived beauty a myth?
@BenBrocka: Hehehe yeah, it is quite bad stimuli, but the result is still interesting. It is one of the very very few studies that examined brain activity when the ratio is violated. I guess that authors wanted very evident example, so poor David turns into mutant, especially in the first image.

comment Sensory Immersion Research?
Thank you @BenCole. I guess that with the meditation I specifically meant that it is easier to use it in distraction-less conditions, rather then sensory overloaded conditions. I don't doubt that you can still do it if conditions are less optimal, but it is probably harder.

comment Why do humans have sex in private?
@Tiberiu-IonuțStan: Chill out mate, I'm not attacking you, just your flawed argument. Obviously we don't understand each other. You seem to say that laws are ultimate cause of people practicing private sex, which I disagree. Here we're arguing that there are deeper aspects of human functioning that brought us to this point in history, where we created such laws, and we are trying to give scientific account for this. I give extreme examples because it shows how laws can't define human behaviour, they just reflect some collective agreement about what the behaviour ought to be.

comment Why do humans have sex in private?
@Tiberiu-IonuțStan: Are you saying that people don't have sex in public merely because there are laws for it? Do you think that general unwillingness of majority of population to not have sex in public is driven entirely by this factor? If that would be the case, we would live in an utopian paradise, where nobody steals, kills and rapes, because we have laws for it. I think you are missing the point here big time. Those laws are there because over time some factors caused us to create them. Here we are trying to hypothesise what were those factors.

@Tiberiu-IonuțStan: We know that there are laws against it, but the question is more concerned with WHY there are such laws in the first place.
