People say men and women are different purely to justify promiscuity and cheating in men.
Evolutionary psychology says that men evolved to seek a variety of fertile, young, attractive women for sex. Fine.
Then women evolved to seek one wealthy, older, protective alpha male!!
But now if a woman seeks that out, she's accused of being a "gold digger" or a "sugar baby."
Women have been shamed out of their natural role.
At best, they have to use tame words like "secure," "financially stable," or even just "ambitious." At worst, they can't be remotely shallow or logistical and have to just love the person on the inside.
Meanwhile men can still use loaded words like "beautiful" or "gorgeous." They can be complete dogs (not saying all men are, just that they're allowed to be). They can say "no fatties" but you can't say "no losers" otherwise, people will say "who are you to call anyone a loser?"
So we should rise above evolution then and just split everything down the middle. 50-50. Both be breadwinners. Women learn to protect themselves. And let women have a variety of sexual partners and still be marriage material.
You're babbling bullshit if you think it's more acceptable for a man to say no fatties but a woman can't say she won't date losers.
If I go around my workplace now openly saying no fatties or shit like that I'll get very unpopular quick.
What do you even mean that men are allowed to but women aren't? Is there a law?
A woman saying no losers is pretty common.
You're talking a lot but not saying anything.
Rising above evolution means nothing.
If our brains evolve a certain behaviour because of ideas that's evolution. Our behaviours are evolution, a part of it.
Men and women have traditional roles for a reason, because it's helped survival for hundreds of thousands of years.
Not that there's no lots of deviations from this throughout history.
Women can get pregnant and men can't.
That's a big difference and a reason for some of the traditional roles men and women have.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
