You're being downvoted for pointing out human nature. You're not wrong, we compete for females. We're animals, even if people want to lie and claim we've progressed. We have not.
So i take it if you fancy a new "female" you kill her previous partner in a fight and then her children with that partner, so she will focuse her attention on the children you make with her. If necessary by raping her? Also if there is no nee females available you will rape and make new children with your own daughters?
Because that is what animals do.
Are you trying to use this argument to deny evolution or evolutionary instinct? Cuz your attempted argument makes no sense. Trying to claim humans aren't driven to procreate is simply contrary to all available information.
Are you not understanding that social and cultural evolution is part of evolution and that there might be good reason why not murdering and rapeing each other like animals do, is an evolutionary advantage?
Social evolution is a wonderful thing, it's not stronger than your biological imperative though. Maybe one day, but that days not today. The guy is still going to chase the virile woman and the woman is still going to seek comfort and safety.
One of the best things taught to me growing up is that you don't have to prove yourself to anyone. There are shallow people, but why waste time with them? Why not go with people who are more open-minded, have good control to not give into superficial and shallow biological instincts, and will accept you for who you are?
Yes, we're all taught that. Our evolutionary instinct is stronger than your teachings, more often than not.
Open minded people open their legs too. That's just reality.
Murder and rape is also natural but not everyone does it and we frown upon it. We have laws against it.
Giving in to instincts that are not productive is showing weakness.
Ya, we live in a society and we should place restrictions around our innate nature, we've learned about the perils of not doing so.
That doesn't in anyway mean it's not our nature. It's weird people are offended by this reality.
We don't go on physical fights to win over a women. It's destructive. How difficult is it to understand? We don't act on destructive instincts because it's not productive and, well, destructive.
I always say this to others, but you must be with running with a bad crowd to hold such warped view.
Are you crazy? You ever been to a bar on a weekend?!
There's constantly fights over women. It's definitely not productive but it's absolutely reality. WTF world do you live in?
And you emulate those knuckledraggers and think everyone else is like them? Like many others I have spoken to who say similar things, it proves my point that you run with a bad crowd leading your warped view.
If you say you have been taught the same thing as I have, you will know when to leave and avoid a toxic environment.
LMFAO. That you are calling the vast majority of humanity knuckle draggers just demonstrates your ignorance of your own biology.
You can believe you're different but the reality is you're not special. You're human, your biological imperative is present just like it is in just about every living thing on this planet. I read with a bad crowd? I'll tell that to my friends at the drag show fundraiser I'll be at later today. I'll bring it up at my next meeting with the queer housing co-op that I'm helping get off the ground. Some people think the crowd I run with is bad but I think they're cool people.
This is the level of stupid I expect from homeschooled anti-evolutionists. But you do you and you keep thinking you're not a human being. Lmfao.
ETA. Now that you have me thinking about it, something between 1/3-1/2 of the people we're trying to home, have children so it's not like the non hetero community doesn't also have the same biological imperative.
Yeah you're just trolling at this point.
If you think that, you're as intellectually dishonest as you are mentally deficient.
Haha, if you're serious about what you say, I wish you the best of luck on your journey.
Bullshit. This queer begs to fucking differ.
Well ya, you're a freak of nature by literal definition, of course you wouldn't agree. Humans, like all animals have a drive to reproduce. You don't have that drive, you're not relevant.
You're going to interpret this literal fact as homophobia too which is kinda funny if you knew me LoL.
Homosexuality has been observed in species including birds, fish, insects, and over 1500 species of mammals.
Blowjobs don't make babies, and homophobia is only observed in one species. Who's a freak of nature now? Checkmate heteros!
Ok? What's your point? Are you trying to use homosexuality as an argument against the imperative to procreate?
WTF is wrong with you? You should listen to some blood hound gang this evening LMFAO.
"Nature" doesn't have any rigid set of rules that push us to be anything specific, in fact it's very much the opposite resulting in evolution and adaptation that is constantly interfering with the traits getting passed down. Sure we have biological mechanisms resulting from this that will reward us for things that tend to increase the population over time, because individuals that didn't were unlikely to reproduce, but even those aren't consistent from individual to individual, and are regularly suppressed and regulated in response to changing environments as would be seen in nature. Nature is constantly and relentlessly progressing, it's just slow on a human timescale.
Science and nature are not forcing you or anyone to be misogynistic, that's just the excuse many have decided to use so they don't have to confront themselves or the complicated societal issues behind it.
Nature has one general rule....procreate.
That's why you're here. Me too.
