“Gays don’t exist in nature because we hid the research done in the 70’s!” Where have I heard that before? Oh yeah… “Climate change doesn’t exist because we hid the research done in the 70’s!” – Exxon

I think the previous century will historically become known for all the things we hid the research on and pretended didn’t exist. 🙁

The podcast episode: https://radiolab.org/podcast/seagulls

Lulu Miller also discussed the history of study of queer behaviour among animal communities (with reference to the Radiolab episode above) on the You’re Wrong About podcast, it was a really fun episode and I highly recommend it: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1112270/13026519-lesbian-seagulls-with-lulu-miller

It sucks that these studies were hidden for so long. Access to knowledge is so important for society
