Just some things I sometimes wonder about.

1: In terms of genetic giftedness, would you guys rather be hot and well-endowed and great in bed with a nice deep voice (but with average intelligence say), or highly intelligent in a way that can let you rise up in Silicon Valley or in some other awesome job market like medicine or finance or whatever? I know it might be a silly question but I often wonder about it. Often you get these men who are incredibly gifted with one of these sets of traits but not the other and I wonder whether they have it better or worse.

2: I'm 27 years old and still can't grow a beard, and I'm very skinny. Does anybody know the science behind why some guys (like Lebron James for example or other NBA players) seem to go through puberty earlier and become extremely manly in terms of their physique and face and facial hair by the time they're like 17? What's the science behind this? Is my impression correct that their puberty not only starts earlier but also develops further and much more rapidly? Some have full beards at like 15 and extremely mature-looking faces and extremely adult and ripped physiques.

3: When it comes to Lebron James and Dwight Howard and other insanely tall and ripped black NBA players with their insane athletic gifts and physiques and everything, does their blackness have anything to do with the genetics involved in these gifts and physiques and everything? What's the deal there? For example, are there white counterparts to these guys physically? Is there a white Lebron? A white Michael Jordan? A white Kobe Bryant? A white Ron Artest? A white Dwight Howard? A white Serge Ibaka? A white Shaq? And if not, why not? Do these guys work harder (maybe having come from tough backgrounds where sports was their only way out of the ghetto)? Does it have anything to do with the horrors of slavery under which African Americans were bred for physical abilities? Again, these are just scientific questions that make me curious. I've never seen a white Shaq or a white Lebron. It's weird. And PC people have told me that even to pose these questions is racist, which I object to. Any intelligent person can separate scientific inquiry from racism.

4: /u/throwawayred521 mentioned here that for a man to be alpha you need "an alpha father to show the child subconscious alpha traits" and also a caring father who will intervene when the child does silly/non-alpha things, disciplining the child "while at the say time teaching him why or what he did wrong." That word "discipline" sounds harsh but is not meant to be harsh in the slightest, merely loving, educational intervention. I wish there were a better word for what's being advocated. Anyway, many incredible alphas I've noticed grew up fatherless. The biggest alpha in my school grew up with just his single mom. Lebron James and a lot of black sports heroes grew up with single moms in rough environments. So does growing up fatherless force you to grow up fast and to become alpha, at least for some personality types? Again, I'm thinking of various NBA heroes here.

5: Why does it matter to some men whether their LTR/wife "rode the CC" in the past, apart from it being a red flag that she might cheat? I get that it matters as a red flag, but it seems to matter in itself for many men, or at least that's my impression. Like this girl might be perfect but the thought that she "rode the CC" in the past somehow makes her less desirable in the present even if there's a 100% guarantee she won't cheat. Do some men think that during sex their LTRs/wives are fantasizing about superior past sex from their CC days? What is the concern?
