'''Thierry Lodé''' is a French biologist, born in [[Tarbes]] in 1956. He is a professor of [[evolutionary ecology]] in the [[CNRS]] Units ETHOS (Ethology, Evolution, Ecology, [[University of Rennes 1]], France). As vice president of council for natural and [[biodiversity]] preservation, Lodé contributes in [[conservation biology]], chiefly carnivores ([[otter]]s, [[polecat]], [[mink]]) and aquatic fauna ([[beaver]], [[amphibians]]).


'''Thierry Lodé''' (born 1956 in [[Tarbes]]) is a French biologist and professor of [[evolutionary ecology]] in a [[CNRS]] lab at the [[University of Rennes 1]].
His work deals mainly with [[sexual conflict]],<ref>Göran Arnqvist and Locke Rowe, Eds., "Sexual conflict", Princeton Univ. Press, 2005</ref> stressing that sexuality appears as a confrontation between males and females. "No norms, he said, no exclusive behaviors exist in natural sexuality but variations of sexual behaviors, from [[homosexuality]] to [[polygyny]]". Resulting in an [[antagonistic co-evolution]], the sexual conflict leads to [[speciation]] i.e., the development of new species.

Lodé wrote more than 80 international scientific papers (in English) and four books.

Thierry Lodé analysed the [[beauty]] as a result of the [[supra-normal stimulus]] in [[evolution]] and built a theory including bilateral symmetry and supra-normal stimulus from the concept developed by [[Konrad Lorenz|Lorenz]]. Lodé said that bilateral [[symmetry]] is an essential characters in life. Most animals prefer to mate with sexual partners exhibiting symmetric pattern. Actually, symmetric traits are largely altered by growth and health, and asymmetry often reveals genetic problem or [[immune system]] (MHC) deficiencies.

==Social engagement==

Thierry Lodé is a nonconformist biologist, engaged in social struggles and extolling a [[Libertarianism|libertarian]] biology. Thierry Lodé championed also several human rights causes, especially as an anarchist, prison abolition. He developed activities for the liberty of the [[contraception]], asserting that he is against the institution of the [[marriage]], for the equality between sexes and for a sexuality stamping contemporary taboos. He supported [[José Bové]] to the last French presidential elections and collaborates to the monthly [[Le Monde libertaire]] and to the [[anarchist]] newspaper l’Endehors.
