Abstract
Abstract: After clarifying some misunderstandings, I discuss the inescapability of bias in research in more practical terms, followed by an exemplification of why epigenetics does not shatter a materialist ontology. After that I explore gender-related questions in Tamil Nadu, the role of emotions, and what we can expect from being aware of the positionality of a researcher.
