Sulphite allergies can cause sneezing, hives or, in extreme case, anaphylaxis. They don't render you incapable of sleep for an entire month.
Ok you're a doctor now.
If you genuinely think women in your office are wearing heels and make up and not mumus and clogs because they want to to make you **** and not because those are part of society's standard for professional attire, HR should really keep an eye on you.
Well no, but I don't think feelings of sexual attraction automatically go away when you step through the office door, which was his point. And he also states that men and women working together in the workplace is also a relatively new phenomena that has only been widespread the last 30-40 years, so we're still trying to figure this out amongst ourselves.
Yes. Remember one of his rules is you can't criticize or try and change the world until you have your own house in order, yet he was going around railing against cultural marxism and wokeness and his other various bugbears all while high as a kite. He's full of ****.
This is the 1 rule I don't quite agree with. Arguments are valid or not valid based on their merit and not on the experience of the one making them.
On the other hand, what he is saying with this rule is that there are some people who want to change the entire structure of society, government, the economy etc and think they know what's best for everyone else when they don't even have any of their own s**t together and don't even know how to run their own house, let alone a society. So he's not entirely wrong on that. If your argument that Peterson can be put in this category well sure, he's not perfect and i don't agree with everything he says, and therefore should not run society which is why we have democracy rather than dictatorship. We are all flawed, to various degrees. The collective consensus is better at deciding things that 1 person.
I've already said his "advice" is stuff they teach learn in kindergarten. How is any of this new to anyone?
Why is everyone desperate for this advice then? These are basic rules of thumb society has abandoned because society thinks holding people's hands and wrapping them in bubble-wrap is the compassionate and most useful way to help people. His basic philosophy is: stop coddling yourself and others, take responsibility for your life and your actions. He's 100% correct, even if he always doesn't follow these rules himself, but he should follow them.
Also you keep crying "ad hominem" when his personal life (in this case, his abject failure to practice what he preaches) is totally relevant.
Why is it relevant if it's still good advice? Let's pretend he's a **** serial killer. His advice is still good. The Cosby Show was still funny despite Cosby being a rapist. MLK was still correct on so many points despite sleeping around on his wife.
