It is this belief, that holds man to be more than animal, that is to blame for all dissatisfaction and disillusionment with human behavior.
We are confronted, daily, with mankind’s animal nature, and yet we pretend it’s for other reasons, setting ourselves up for further disappointments.
We blame it all on nurture. Nature had nothing to do with it.
Are we primates then?
Did you know Chimpanzee females prostitute themselves?
I bet you thought it was all caused by a patriarchal systems that objectifies and degrades women, right?
I bet you thought it was all caused by a dysfunction or by poor upbringings.
I bet you thought it was all caused by a Capitalism.
Truth is, male Chimpanzees hunt, mostly during the period females go into heat.
(Maybe this carnivorous diet is also caused by human invention, if we believe morons like our resident homosexual, masculine male
Buddha1)
The dominant Chimpanzee male uses his catch to have sex with females.
Here’s the interesting thing: The lesser males, also use meat to entice females into intercourse with them, in secret.
(I bet they all, or 95% of them, really want to have sex with other males and are forced by a heterosexual conspiracy into this)
So, in fact, females use sex as a bargaining tool, by nature, not because they are forced by human patriarchal systems into it.
What the label “prostitute” denotes, in our time, is a price not a behavior.
A woman having sex for $100 is a whore.
One that has sex for millions is ambitious and upwardly mobile.
Human systems, I repeat, simply take ingrained behaviors and utilize them or repress them or divert them or control them for their own purposes.
It is this that causes human physical and mental disorder, where human intervention forces behaviors the human being has yet to evolve into.
animals dont have nuclear wars, which your social darwinist philsophy wold probably blame them for----actually i mre believe our culture is more based on insect colonies rather than mammals, ie., ant colonies. i am not saying tis is a good thing
but there are arguments that in the past we have lived better than what patriarchal power-over systems have imposed on individuals. also Indigenous cultures. for example the HOpi who are more matrirachal-based--who respect the environment and community
Your usage of ‘nuclear war’ as an example of how we are different than animals not only reveals your intellectual level but shows you to be motivated by self-interest.
The means change, the motives remain the same.
Whether a man uses a gun and a monkey uses its teeth or a stick is an irrelevant detail that has nothing to do with the creature’s "different nature" but mostly has to do with the species ingenuity and exposes its historical development and overall inventive and tool using potential.
First you ask for examples…and I offer some.
Then you blame it all on patriarchal systems which repress women…and I answer.
Then you tell me about some tribes that use some form of matriarchy but does not disprove male superiority and also explains why these cultures remain primitive and ineffective.
Now you claim man, miraculously is not an animal.
Are you for real or a Christian?
The institution of religion is a good example.
Here we see male authority being raised and abstracted into omniscience.
This has some very telling consequences.
Firstly it equalizes men and women under its authority and castrates males - one reason why women find religion so attractive and effeminate males swarm to it to gain empowerment through association.
Most males find the idea of being under another male’s power - even if it is an abstract symbolic entity - insulting.
A good example of how institutions replace male roles and force everyone into subordinate positions, causing everything from ‘sensitive, emasculated, liberal’ males, as yourself, clinging on the virtue of tolerance and equality to gain some access to intercourse and relief from nature's cruelty, to females acting as fragile holy object to be won over in a romantic duel, never to soil their sensitive skin with dirt or blood.
It also causes the rise of homosexuality, in both genders, as a new viable alternative usage for intercourse and creates the environment where idiots can claim that sex has evolved for bonding and that males have to be coerced into sexual relations with the opposite sex, without which their own sex becomes meaningless.
It causes the questioning of racial and gender distinctions, or anything that distinguishes and separates. The system wants to integrate and harmonize and so all distinguishing elements must be defamed or minimized or ignored and blamed on human invention. Everything must be blamed on nurture, so that it can be cured.
it is all in patriarchal myth dude. IF as u say it is all au natural--patriarchal oppression. then why do we see cutting dmominating mythologies suddenly appear on the scene with sole purpose of CONTROL-over women etc etc
Controlling females, as I’ve said, is a natural phenomenon. They become just another resource to be exploited. Female uteruses and eggs are invaluable in nature. Sperm is plenty and expendable.
Man didn’t invent control over females or harems or male dominance, you fool!!!!
Your stupidity is beginning to irk me.
A patriarchal system simply uses natural tendencies and natural systems for is own purposes. It doesn’t conger them out of the ether.
Matriarchy is always the exception to the rule and evolves under special conditions for various reasons. It is also less successful than patriarchal systems because the male competition causes progress through strife, whereas matriarchal passivity and tolerance causes less strife and, therefore, less progress. Get it yet?!
what you gonna say to a woman whoISN't happy with this oppression? 'oh look at the lions bitch?'
What a wonderfully emotional and overly exaggerated reaction to a reasonable position.
Frankly nature’s cruelty and how you or your friends deals and copes with it, is none of my concern.
Got news for you…life’s unfair…..Sorry, I didn’t create it. I just describe it.
We are not talking about what you prefer or would like things to be like.
If we are I want a
Lord of the Rings universe with a hint of the
Matrix…cool.
Truth is females are more valuable than males and most males are destined to live in solitude and perish without ever knowing the pleasures of procreation or even intercourse, given that with female emancipation her old sexual powers have been returned to her.
The fact that women are dumber or physically weaker than males is a small price to pay for being of central importance to the species.
In fact it is their importance that prevents them from being more.
Necessity creates progress. Where there is no necessity there is stagnation.
What shall we tell males then?
“Oh….love is all healing, young buck. You too shall find someone to appreciate you and you too are worth something.”
Too bad you find reality so unpalatable and you must invent things to help you deal with your own insignificance and weakness.
To be honest I don’t give a shit about how another deals with their own nature or life in general.
This fear of reality is what causes the circumstances which enable mass manipulation and stupidity.
Look around you, the world is full of fools escaping reality into artificial universes and romantic ideals.
Isn’t this what is called…decadence?
If you can’t look the world in the eye, turn your gaze upwards and pray for a better afterlife, young Paduin.
Now I return you to your youthful blatherings and naïve inanities where you sooth yourselves with ideals that excuse you from yourselves.
