Our common enterprise originated in and depends upon liberal democratic social institutions, and assumes their values. With all our differences and disagreements, we are committed to scientific research in a common effort to improve human health and welfare. Our professional careers are a large part of our personal lives, so that our science, our lives, and our values are a single fabric. The present lecture is a meditation on this situation based upon my own heritage, personal experience, and career in anthropology, and on the recent publication in Social Science & Medicine of an essay that attributed the epidemiology of AIDS to racial variation.

Eysenck's major “temperamental” factors were not correlated with attractiveness, but social attitude variables showed a pattern of correlations that could be interpreted as reflecting rationalization and denial; unattractive girls tended to be more idealistic, religious, puritanical and opposed to sexual freedom. A humor test based on ratings of risqu´ seaside postcards revealed that unattractive girls preferred cartoons which depicted attractive girls being admired or approached by young men.
