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.
