Let's be clear about something. Are we going to have a civilized discussion or not? If you want to stick to name-calling, we can terminate this right now. Stop acting like a petulant child. No, I did not just call you a petulant child. However, you are acting like one. Anymore of this neck-beard idiocy bullshit, and we're done.

Your pointing out that there are exceptions to Briffault’s Law doesn't make it false. There are exceptions to every rule. In fact, you haven't even gone through the trouble of citing even one specific exception to prove your case. How's that for a non-argument?

It’s all but impossible to conceive of a rule concerning human female psychology that is appropriate for every single case. In a world where 3.5 billion females exist, you'd most certainly be able to find a handful that don't fit Briffault's parameters. However, for the majority of women, Briffault's Law does hold-up.

All Briffault’s Law does is describe what hypergamy looks like. Women can decide to obey their hypergamic instincts or not. 70% of divorces are initiated by women, because women derive a benefit from breaking the marriage contract. That single stat shows me that a majority of women are more likely give-in to their base instincts than to act in a moral manner.

u/Losus4 makes a valid point. If we're playing the odds, and I only have a 30% chance of winning. I'm not going to play that game.

Your words are an extension of your intelligence, so I’ll judge you by such. If you’d prefer to hear that you’re acting like an idiot or a neck beard, then read my previous comments as such.

Briffault’s Law states an absolute, so any exception leads to a contradiction being derived. This is impossible. What evidence is needed? You just granted that there are exceptions, validating my point. Besides, even if you thought some sort of empirical evidence is needed, you would need to prove every single woman on the planet is that particular way, as you, again, have the burden of proof.

Again, majorities make no difference when speaking in absolutes.

Divorce rates do not necessitate some psychological difference. As you’ve stated it, Briffault’s law is a psychological claim. Without some evidence and reasoning to show that there is causation there, then there is no reason to assume that phenomenon is a consequence of an exclusively female psychology.

I don’t care what games people think they are or aren’t playing, as they have no bearing on the argument.
