Gay, Catholic and Doing Fine

[Brian37]

Saddest thing is, some people seem to want to be ordered around. Whether this is their nature, or whether it's years of conditioning is hard to say.

It's an evolutionary flaw. It isn't even the act of following that is bad in and of itself, it is the flawed logic of appeal to authority. Our species is a variety of individuals, some make better leaders and others make better subordinates. The problem is that humans mistake social order as being a title and role and script. It is why more often than not we can accept a man as the breadwinner in a family. The same can be said for a business CEO, a political leader, and very few women have leadership rolls in religion.

There will always be in our species more workers than leaders, in any aspect of society, there simply needs to be a better understanding that it isn't the gender, or title that makes one moral, but doing what works and consent to leadership and consent to being a subordinate and a better understanding that it is the cooperation and consent between the alpha and the beta. Because as Sagan said, it doesn't matter who is where, top or bottom, friend or foe, the ride ends for everyone.

We see many other species of life where the scripts between genders and social order are different.
