There's no roadmap.

I believe, to how to navigate that.

It's a circuit-wide phenomenon.

Everyone would say amygdala.

I teach neuroanatomy to medical students, or I did until very recently.

In the example you gave, it's very clear that somebody violated somebody's boundary.

They felt embarrassment.

Showing that embarrassment shows that they have some sort of empathic attunement or awareness that makes them perhaps a little less creepy and a little bit safer.

As opposed to if they just kept

you know, going forward, right?

However, if it was a bit vague, like let's say that they did something, a flirtation, and it wasn't really clear what it was, and the other person said, hey, like that doesn't feel good to me, and then they acted very embarrassed, and the person who said it didn't feel good to them

would quite understandably think, oh, it must have been really bad, right?

Oftentimes the dynamics are subtle where people don't really know how they should feel about something.

At the extremes, we know.

Fascinating.

A lot of younger guys talk to me about their challenges in the dating scene.

And one of the things that they seem very challenged with is the fact that they feel like whatever happens on a date is shared on the internet.

Yeah.

And this is, of course, not...

related to assault or them acting highly inappropriate.
