Why do women have to have a hoe phase

I think the biology is more of an underlying drive. It's possible to override it with the application of willpower or if there are other imperatives that have a stronger effect.

I agree that biology has an underlying drive. Like if someone threatens you, your biological response is to freeze, run-away, or fight. Then to top it off, if you're a male, you predispose to being violent (if you're not a soy boy, lol).

To further explain the idea of R / K theory, is that R theory is advantageous in situation of uncertainty. While K theory is advantageous in stable environment.

Here's some next level stuff, if you are open to some new ideas.

My theory (and I'm sure I'm not the first to make this claim, but I haven't heard anyone else made it yet), is there a heighten sense of instability in the west because of the propaganda machine. I'll list a few things. 1) Global warming panic. 2) Racism. 3) Sexism. 4) Global recession. Etc. etc. Now, who's more likely to adopt r-strategy? Liberals. What's in the mind of these liberals? Patriarchy is real. Men are rapist. I'm always oppressed as a woman. Global warming will end the world in 10 years. Republicans are literally nazi terrorist and Trump is Hitler. The police are racist bigots that will kill without warning. Etc. Etc. Etc.

I know, western woman are one of the most privilege people on the planet, and their life is more secure than ever before. But that's not what they believe. Their actions are based in their emotions.

ANYWAYS. So you got your explanation, about hypergamy, which I 100% agree with. They will seek the top G. On top of that. You got this whole r / k theory. So they running amok, sleeping with loads of top Gs.

Monogamous relationships benefit society, but not necessarily the individual male.

True. But... what benefits society also benefits the individual male too. Here's an example. If you're a top G and get all the pussy, what's going to happen? Men are going to revolt and attack you. So what does a top G do? He give "enough" men access to sex, and then builds a coalition to defend against the men who don't have access. That's the beginning of a society.

The you have a group of disgruntle men who waste all their time and energy on getting access to sex, and then here's the brilliant part.... you give them access to sex to, now they're devoting their time and energy inventing new technology and advancing civilization.

The top G benefits from all of that. Maybe instead of having a harem like Genghis Khan, he'll settle for a handful of beautiful women if it means society goes from wandering nomads to high tech self driving cars.

From the Dawkins perspective, the most successful male in history is Genghis Khan.

No doubt, Genghis Khan was a top G. I understand it's an example to explain a biological urge. But exceptions don't make the rule. If everyone was a Genghis Khan, most men would be dead, and as a strategy reproducing, it can only be performed by a very small % of men. As a general rule, which is based on 99% of human reproduction, humans adopted the K strategy. And that's not for the man or the woman benefit. It's for the infant benefit. Because baby infants are the most useless and weak creature imaginable. Large heads that they can't even turn. No motor skills. Can't even fed itself. All it does is cry if it's stress. I'm sure that would help a lion find you faster.

We adopt K strategy to give the best success for our genetic offspring.
