Here's some dating advice: Don't use the sentence "you shouldn't worry about disqualifying yourself or thinking that I'm not accessible to you" anytime anywhere, let alone on your dating profile. Some career advice: If your day job supposedly involves ethics, you should probably tone down the publicly-available dating profile where you advertise yourself as a polyamorous sadist who welcomes the casual advances of women who "want to sleep with me once so you can tell your grandchildren" (provided they don't "disqualify" themselves by thinking you're not "accessible", I suppose).
I'm hoping the whole thing is tongue-in-cheek...? (If so, it's merely the product of poor judgment, rather than terrifying.)
Career advice, simplified: If your day job requires having a good image, you should care about having a good image.
(Note: It's not about ethics, only about perceptions. But the perceptions are important.)
Feynman used to hang in topless bars, didn't he?
Did he also believe that he increases the existential risk by doing so?
Good point.
