I wanted to thank Stephen as well. I watched the one on gay/straight, given that we're covering that topic now in my intro class. I truly loved the video but fear that many of the nuances would go right over the heads of my students (especially the skepticism of the Norwegian researchers, and their complete denial that studying the original of differences in sexual orientation could even be an interesting or even valid area of scientific inquiry).

As for the fast subtitles I mentioned, I do pride myself on reading quickly. I think that perhaps I was, um, distracted by certain of the images from attention to the subtitles. There could even be a sex difference there! Now if only I spoke Norwegian. Now that I've seen almost all of them (one to go), I should warn of a small disappointment. Probably because the hosting site has a video length limit, two of the videos were truncated before the end. I don't think much was lost, though.
