Holy thread Necro Imagine being this ignorant when information is free. All you have to do is type in "closest human DNA relative", it's that easy. Bonobos AND chimps are our closest relatives, with some sources saying bonobos share slightly more. And do you not know how evolution works? We didn't evolve from bonobos nor chimps. We diverged from a similar ancestor long before that. Yet we still share something like 97% with both.

The easier access and use of sex as conflict resolution is enabled by female bonobos being in their position. If women were in the theoretical position OP suggests, they'd be afforded the same. I don't bring up subjugation as suffering Olympics points, it's very simple psychology. If one is living in oppression, they have less capacity to care for others. In an alternate timeline where women had never known the effects of sexism, they'd be more trusting of random men in society, and a theoretica…

But what about how many kindergarteners you can take at once. That's always the true mark to go by

How is mentioning a fact about bonobos misandrist, legit question? Does the phrase "female led" just trigger you? Is it misogynist that the article said "male-led societies" for chimps? Similarly, how does mention of past events mean misandry? Women were subjugated for a large portion of history. That's not some personal opinion, it's a fact of the past. And seeing how the topic of this thread is "how would history have changed", its relevant.

So you just copypastad bonobo facts, restating exactly what I said, and threw in a "muh misandry". Wut. Absolutely nothing I said was misandric, in fact it was mostly what you just said, less long-winded. How exhausting to constantly want to be agro and start fights. People always wanna engage to be right, rather than discuss

Bonobos are our closest DNA relatives and have female led societies, we have a glimpse of what it could potentially look like: A whopping 99% of our human DNA is the same as that of our closest primate cousins – chimps and bonobos. But while chimps tend to be male-led, bonobos take their lead from females. Females make the travel plans, explains Takeshi Furuichi at Kyoto University, who studies bonobos in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Females eat first, because they organize dinner. Conflict…

Because I want to have a good life together with my husband. I want to take care of our home, cook meals together, take care of my elderly parents, visit family, go on trips and see the world together, raise a family. Don't have groceries to cook or a home to take care of if we can't pay for them. Society doesn't work on bartering and requires fiat for all of those things, and the current financial climate means dual income is more effective. That's why it's important.

I feel like environment probably plays a big role, for both genders honestly. Idk if you're in a more rural area of Texas or what, but personalities and interests can vary a ton by location. I'm in a tech hub and women here are into anime, sports, outdoor activities, gaming, fashion, etc. Which is a stark difference from like, my extended family in the south. I couldn't relate to a single thing with my cousin, her whole personality was gossip, magazines and fox news

I actually hard agree with this. I'm probably biased because that's my life story, but it makes sense. I struggled growing up cause I focused so much on my hobbies and interests that I didn't take care of my appearance. But all those interests and hobbies continued to grow with me while simultaneously growing out of ugly duck phase Definitely seen some Karen's come from the "peaked in school" also

What the pickme bullshit is that lmao, yes I believe it, I said what I said. Women generally fair better emotionally and socially and can be content alone. Also less testosterone and sex drive which allow women to be patient and choose for quality, because being single is better than being in a bad relationship as most women know. And before anecdotes are thrown around, key word is GENERALLY. Women can be happy single, most men aren't.

Presentation is everything. Even with an objective truth, if you present it in a douchey way, the odds of people listening are much lower. "Stopping at stop signs is safe" people will all generally agree with, vs "If you don't stop at stop signs you're a dumb fuckstick" will get a lot of resistance, despite still being true. I agree that dating is harder for guys and arguably more difficult today. Most of the RP tenets aren't anything new, they've just been repackaged and the problem is a lot of…

Marriage > Single > Bad Marriage. Yes it's better to be single than in a bad relationship, but you're kidding yourself with this copium of marriage in general being worse for men. Loneliness is an epidemic and the vast majority of men won't be living the forever-bachelor-life "have a younger woman whenever you want" life you're spouting.

It's happened to me a couple times, I didn't ask her to (also wasnt unattractive, so nothing to do with that). Once she did it because she thought I looked uncomfortable (I wasn't, but also wasn't feeling it anyway). Another time I think it was pretty obvious she was just bored and wanted to leave lol

In an ideal world, you'd already have your partner by the time you're ready to start trying. Go to college, meet someone, gain some years in your careers, build networth, get married and have a family a few years later. Unfortunately, people change a lot throughout their 20s and the person you were with when you you're a young adult isn't necessarily the person that fits you as an adult. Getting caught in bad dating cycles is what can run people out of time. But if you have your shit together an…

No, you just wait until you're ready, and for most people that's now late 20s early 30s. You wildly blow out of proportion "late" pregnancy issues (and ironically act like older men don't contribute even though sperm is the predictor of development issues). Have you spoken to a gynecologist ever in your life? Because 30s doesn't automatically mean fertility issues. And no, majority of people aren't waiting until 40. 27-30 is still the most common range of first births, which allows time to devel…

It's weird you assume women DON'T take this seriously. Because they do, much more than yourself. Unfortunately society isn't structured towards making family raising easy despite being desperate for us to keep spewing out worker drones. And how easy do you think it is to just hold off a career and casually start in your 30s? That's a good way to be passed up for every worthwhile opportunity and have 0 retirement or life plan. I probably could have had a kid in my mid-late 20s, but our quality of…

I don't know how young you are, but that is all within the last decade or so. Being a woman growing up in the 90s and early 00s, every magazine staring you in the face walking down the store aisles was bone-thin, white women with headlines like "THE ONLY WAY TO BE SEXY", "ALL THE PRODUCTS YOU NEED TO BE LOVED", "BE THIN", You HAVE to look this way, that way, etc etc etc. It is only very recently in history that the pendulum has swung the other direction into "fuck what other people think, live h…

No I would not. My dad isn't my biological father, but he raised us as his own. He's the best man I have ever and will ever know in my life. Thankfully my husband shares the sentiment, adores and sees my dad as a role model. Adoption or fostering is even something we've both thought about and he's onboard with.

Weird terminology, but I've had looooots over the years. Most I was friends with and simply didn't have any deeper feelings for. Also, I've been in LTRs for most of my adult life so never had much single opportunity. One guy I was close friends with for years. We shared a lot of interests, gamed together, same sense of humor. He was a decently attractive guy, but could look a lot better if he put in effort. But when I eventually broke up and was single, he made me really uncomfortable with his a…

So this actually happened to me. I was still in another relationship the very first time I met my now husband. We worked in the same building, we started chatting after work one day walking down to the garage. Found out we both worked in the same industry, shared some similar interests, he seemed funny. Super extroverted fit dudebro type. Very obviously flirting with me, but I thought nothing of it at the time as I was happy in my relationship (which had that emotional connection). We didn't mee…

I grew up being defiantly against having kids for all those stated reasons, and also just not wanting to have to go through pregnancy. That part still kind of turns me off to it, but it's just a fact of the matter. As for the other worldly issues, as another commenter said there's never a "right" time; throughout history there's always going to be something terrible going on that people just have to live through. We're trying now, I think we're both in the mindset of "happy if it happens, still …

What has your experience been with fostering? It's something we've considered, but also one of those very polarizing topics where you hear either stories of love or tragedy. I worry about getting tangled in another family's drama when all I want to do is help the kid. I've heard/read all kinds of things like the parents coming around harassing foster families, stalking, the children themselves having scary issues, etc.

I occasionally remind them that there are also implications that they wouldn't like if this standard is applied consistently. Such as raising the age of consent, or marriage, or getting a driver's license, or voting, or getting tattoos and piercings, etc. There's a massive difference between hard barriers like banning, and a soft barrier with requirements. You don't ban a young adult from driving, you just require them to take lessons first. With marriage and consent, the soft barrier is usually…

Large portion of dudes in these spheres are young adults and teenagers. At that age, anyone over 30 feels like they belong in a care facility. Then you grow up and hit 30 yourself and perspective changes.

It's hyperbole, but is it really a stretch? Trickle down economics, ever worsening education, among many other issues. People today were born into this mess, which didn't exist before boomers, because the silent generation actually worked to set them up for success. It's also hard to make change because boomers continue to influence most of the political landscape, and not in favor of those that will inherit the future

True, I generally agree. Also points out a glaring issue with people willfully choosing not to get married these days. In the eyes of the law, you cannot make choices for one another. Even during the early pandemic, you had people suffering alone in the hospital, because their partner was not legally recognized and allowed to visit.

And that's definitely an issue, too. Multigenerational housing is probably the ideal solution, either with inlaw units or multiple homes per property. But those are both less common and more expensive. I don't think I could live with my mother 24/7 either, but in a living situation like that would be totally doable. My parents are 3 minutes away though, so still works out. I just wish we'd do away with this "kids gotta go at 18, and send gramps and granny off to a care home". It's so against eve…

That feels set up for failure, because it is heavily rooted in submissive/oppressive dynamics. I'm a grown adult with responsibilities and equal ownership of this house. I'm not giving up my say in how it's run, we come to a decision together or compromise. My father raised me specifically to be self sufficient and not be walked over by men. Coming from that generation, there's a reason father's did this for their daughters.

Its a capitalist construct that worsened the family dynamic. Previously, households were often multi generational. Kids were growing up not only with their parents, but also grandparents. This enabled both parents to provide resources, gave more purpose to grandparents without having to ship them off to a care home, and children always had family around to care for them. "It takes a village" to raise a family, and it used to be that way. But what do you think gains companies more profits, a sing…

Different strategies for different stages. People conflate Lust and Love, 2 stages of attraction with different dynamics. Yes, you need to be attractive to date.

My very first serious relationship was with a guy I met on a MMO. We were both in high school, lived in different states, we met up a couple times. He moved nearby for college and we started dating irl, lasted about a year. My 2nd relationship I met through LoL. That lasted about 6 years, but inevitably didn't work out.

I love masculine traits; confident, assertive, "dominant" men are attractive, no doubt. But people misunderstand the dynamic in which women enjoy it: I like my man to have those traits and display it in his life in a general sense, not specifically towards me. I want him to be the aggressive warrior out in the world, but returns home where I am his queen whom he loves and is kind and husbandly to. I want a man who dominates his life, not his wife.

Personality is a slow burn; it can eventually get to an attraction boiling point but takes longer. Looks is obviously a flashfire that can build attraction instantly. But it's absolutely possible to build attraction solely on personality, majority of people just won't be in a situation to make that happen I worked with a guy years ago that would likely be considered low in the looks department to most.

As I said elsewhere, quality of said education is a different subject entirely. Point still stands, as far as the law is concerned you can vote at 18 because you have completed X years of whatever arbitrary education.

​ People can learn about it from their parents and other older people they know. They do, which is precisely why older people recommend young adults avoid serious relationships at that age. Whether or not they "really know" how society works, those are things they learn in school, which is why they are legally able to vote, take out loans, etc. Quality of said education is an entirely different subject.

Those are your anecdotal experiences and they are different from the majority.

But they still see the younger women as children, right? By the time most people hit 30, teenagers look like children, so yes. People in their young 20s, which is a big chunk of reddit, don't quite grasp this yet. That part comes with experience, but most well adjusted humans eventually hit that moment of self-reflection and realize teenagers are cringey and immature. And making choices =/= making good choices. I made plenty of choices as a teen. Doesn't mean they were smart choices.

No, they look at THEMSELVES in the past and see children. Its experience. Idk how old you are but I find it hard to believe you can look back at your teens or young 20s and think "yup I was a smart adult that made good decisions" Looking back at myself at 18, I cringe and see a child. At the time I felt mature though. This is a very widespread mentality, even among men, and if you don't share it you are probably still young. Teens are dumb.

Eh, I don't think men are naturally lonelier. And loneliness isn't a gender split issue, the pain induced by loneliness feels the same to everyone.

A relationship isn't supposed to be tit for tat, no "I worked harder than you in my life so you need to do more for me now". If you are both currently working to provide for the home, you should both be taking care of your home. You have no business sharing a life with someone if you believe they owe you for everything

Your problem is viewing it as "punishment" in the first place. Should your partner be punished for your choice in job? I work from home and similarly can often finish tasks far under estimation. My husband also works from home but isn't task based, he is expected to be available at all times. Sometimes I'll do some cleaning or chores sprinkled throughout the day, my husband is incredibly appreciative that I choose to do extra work. But EXPECTATION is the key to this entire issue.

Time is the number to base this off of, not salary. Do you both work 8 hours a day? Then both should take care of the home equally. If one works part-time or stays home, they can put in more work at home. In that same scenario, if his wife got a promotion the next day and suddenly earned more than him, would he be expected to suddenly increase his workload at home?

Because you're completely ignoring everything else I just said. Female orgasm always involves clitoral stimulation, full stop. Humans are also notoriously bad at self reporting and estimations such as this. Women taking this survey very well may: consider PIV with grinding as "PIV only" (even though grinding is clitoral stimulation), doggystyle and positions that hit the clitoral nerves as "PIV only", foreplay involving the clitoris but then finishing with PIV as "PIV only". Also, over 50% of wo…

You do realize that orgasming from PIV is still clitoral stimulation, so your entire point is moot? 90% of nerve endings are in the clitoris, with the rest being found adjacent throughout the labia and the location and amount can vary between women. So even for the small amount of women who can orgasm from PIV alone, it is still indirect clitoral stimulation. A proper study would present it in boolean, do you orgasm from PIV alone, True or False. You wouldn't add that 18% and 36% together, becau…

Those laws came to be because babies were being abandoned and killed. The fact that it needs to exist at all is sad, but some people are messed up.

That old anti abortion phrase doesn't really track.

But if a man doesn't want a baby after conception, his part had already ended, there's nothing for his body to do. In a literal sense the only thing he could have done was proactively, not fucked that woman And then of course a 3rd person is born with their own set of rights and here we are. I …

No, but the point of those laws is a last resort to save the life of the child that now exists.

I get the concept of it, but it's an aspect of life that will never be fair, because reproduction by nature is unfair. A woman takes on the full risk and gets the say on if their body will continue to carry. A child born has a right to be supported by the man who led to their creation. At neither of those steps is it okay to take the rights away from the woman or child. The safest bet for men is vetting better, protection, vasectomy, abstinence, etc. Those 3 minutes of pleasure is biologically t…

People mistake child support as a Men vs Women issue. The point of child support has nothing to do with either parent... There's kind of this 3rd human that becomes involved in the mix. It is entirely based on the CHILDS RIGHTS. The issue of who has more rights in the pregnancy stage is entirely separate, but once the child is born, they have a right to be supported by both humans that brought them into existance

Liking and disliking is an opinion, but forming that judgement based on gender is a preconceived opinion, a prejudice. Women are entitled to not be judged because they are women.

The "concern" from your family/friends isn't out of fear, it's the type of concern of them not wanting you to die alone.

Keyword: encouraged. Being seen as a tomboy wasn't a good thing most of the past century and society definitely didn't want women doing masculine things. Today we're in a world where playing video games or sports doesn't even have to have a word like 'tomboy' attached to it. It's just a thing women do now. Hopefully we can get to a place where men can do the same without being called gay

I mean, you're pulling a begging the question logical fallacy. "Would people be unhappy if they're forced into doing something that makes them unhappy" no shit when you're framing it like that. I don't like snowboarding, and I definitely wouldn't like it if I was being pressured into it. People enjoy things when they are given free will to do so. If a man gave a feminine hobby a try and enjoyed it, yes he would likely continue doing that thing. But current society doesn't allow that to be an opt…

Edited to add specifically straight males, since that matters apparently. Like someone else pointed out though, this is mostly where the problem lies. This strange obsessive fear of "gay" and "femininity". Your question was "why is there no men who participate in these things" but suddenly it's "woah, I meant straight men only". You got your answer, but gay men don't count for some reason? They're still men. And also, more straight men would participate in these things if it wasn't for this irra…

But... a large percentage of high end fashion is men? Guccio Gucci, Michael Kors, Louis Vuitton, Cristóbal Balenciaga, Christian Dior, Mario Prada, the list goes on. Men have a long history in the fashion industry and I'm sure they enjoyed it with how successful they were at it Edit: since you seem to care about strictly straight males who occupy feminine hobbies, there's still plenty of straight male fashion designers.

Because until recently in human history, we only encouraged genders to do their own gendered activities, and it's great that we're slowly moving past that. Not that it should be pushed onto them, but if they want to try something then fuck it, do it. No shaming. You only have one shot at living on this rock, why bar yourself from 50% of lifes experiences

My SO has been thinning since before we met and now we're about to get married, so it doesn't bother me. He's told me when it gets bad enough he'll go for a buzz, no interest in treatments. Won't change how I feel, so I support whatever he wants for himself.

Sure, but does that really matter when we're a species of higher intelligence? Animals aren't on the same cognitive level, they have no concept of purpose in life. THEY live by biological instincts, we live by whatever we decide for ourselves. The idea that one must fulfill their "biological purpose" is silly for creatures with self-awareness. He's lived a fulfilling life, found love, and built a strong, caring family to carry on his memory and legacy. What does biological imperative really matt…

This. My dad isn't biological, but he stepped in and raised me as his own. He's the greatest father I could have asked for and my favorite man in the world. He's now older and his health is declining and I'd do anything to help him as he did through my life. Raising other people's children always has a bad stigma attached to it, but you're also gaining family from it. I love him immensely and will continue to care for him until the end.

When you first meet someone and want to find out if you're compatible, you ask if they want to go on a date to get a bite or drink. You really going around asking people "madam, wouldst thou wish to court with me at thy local pub?"

Okay? Same point stands. You've met a handful of assholes. For every one of those you've passed by thousands more regular people going about their lives. But those people aren't memorable if you go around life with a bias, specifically looking for reasons to hate. I've encountered plenty of disgusting men, but I also recognize there's infinitely more decent ones.

So you've met a few asshole women out of 3.8 billion. It happens, humans are generally narcissistic douches across both sexes. It just happens that the worst aspects of people stand out more than the good, same reason news rarely broadcasts anything good. We feed on negativity and cling to it. It's why shit like AWALT or "all men are pigs" n whatever is dumb as shit. Look at how people crucify police, even though for every fuck up there's millions doing their job properly.

Seriously, it's called chemistry. Just meeting people and seeing if you are compatible. Seems people here are conflating "hook up" and "date". Dating imo is much more akin to interviewing. You can interview at multiple jobs to better your chances at finding the right one, nothing wrong with that. Again, not fucking multiple people each night, that's hooking up not dating. Going out to dinner or a bar and getting to know the person is a date. Strange concept for people here I'm sure.

This is one thing I definitely agree with, OLD has changed the dating landscape mostly in a negative way. From personal experience, the brief time I used OLD I could feel the "maybe there's better" mentality creep in. I've only ever been in LTR and when my last one ended, I tried OLD for a few months before finding my current fiancé. Honestly, the ease of it being at my finger tips and just swiping made me more picky in retrospect. People I would have gladly chatted up in person I would pass bec…

Hedonic treadmill. It's not a gender issue, it's a human one. Just so happens that this cycle is more vicious in the information age. Our brains all crave dopamine and there is a certain point where the more we get, the more we crave it and chase after it and it's right in out pockets now. It's not damaging in the sense you're thinking (not sure why you think people become r*tarded), but social media can definitely cause depression and general dissatisfaction when it's all people focus on.

I 100% wear them for comfort. I can't even remember when I first tried one, though I do recall it feeling awkward at first. But eventually you don't even notice and it feels like going commando, just so comfortable and free. Regular underwear now irritates me because I hate the feeling of a band around my legs, or having all the extra fabric bunch up and make creases.

The entire concept of AWALT has always been strange to me. Painting any group with a wide brush, really. Fact is, humans thrive on negativity and drama; you rarely hear feel good stories on the news, because it doesn't sell. You only see bad cops shooting people, so we assume "omg all cops are pigs", but that may be less than 1%. The rest are just trying to do their job. Similarly, people don't typically praise their good experiences in life, they hop online and complain about how awful everythi…

Women tend to internalize, men tend to externalize. When women are rejected, society tells them they need to go on a diet to get that guy, or buy new clothes, or get the right haircut. The blame is on them for not being good enough. When a man is rejected, society tells him "bitches are crazy", AWALT, etc., the onus is not on him but around him, which can lead to this outward anger.

I was single for a year awhile back, working in silicon valley and primarily looking for guys in similar fields/interests. I actually did find it difficult, but it may be a phenomenon of the "tech bro" culture here.

Living in hacker houses with all their dude friends, focusing on their careers, not wanting strings attached etc. It was surprising to me given that the area has nickname…

The mistake here is saying they "understand". Neither of these groups have an understanding, they have prejudice. It's no different than any other stereotype; they have preconceived notions because of their experiences. But like any stereotype, they're over simplified ideas that are not always true, probably not even a majority of the time. Not all asians are good at math, not all tall people are good at basketball, and not "all men/women are like that". If anything, better understanding of a gr…

He was unambitious. It was a 6+ year relationship that started when I was 19. Back then I wasnt thinking about what's important in the long term. He was older than me but hadn't gone to college, wasn't pursuing a career, etc. But he was fun and that's all that mattered at the time. Over the years I graduated, started a career, moved up in my career, all the while he was in the same place.

The two are not mutually exclusive. It's best to visualize it as a venn diagram of "best friend" and "partner" spheres, that overlap in some relationships more than others. My SO and I overlap a lot; we consider each other best friends, and are able to maintain a healthy relationship because we recognize there is still also a "partner" dynamic at the same time. I've seen a lot of people with the opinion they should be kept completely separate, and honestly I think that's more a personal problem.…

This isn't limited to just gender conflict. Tribalism is a stupid human instinct that many people can't get over. Grouping people into a broad group of "others" is a mechanism to have a sense of belonging. All women/men are the same, all Prius drivers are the same, all liberals are the same, all conservatives are the same, all X race are the same, etc etc ad nauseam. It's all the same bullshit, people can't fathom that the world is shades of grey and not black and white.

I agree.

The "nerd" stereotype; a lot of people who aren't familiar still picture the pimple faced geek wearing glasses, etc. At least in Silicon Valley, that stereotype is far from accurate.

Looks aside, this has always been very real with my career and hobbies. With male dominated spaces, there's always this assumption that a woman doesn't actually know anything about it or just doing it for attention.
