Quote:P.S. Similarly, why is a man who f*cks women frequently appreciated whilst a virgin who can't convince any woman to sleep with him is ridiculous? The former is the "strong one", i.e. the natural selection enlists him to pass his genes forward, whilst the latter is the "weak one", the "inferior one", the one who gets swept away by the natural selection process. And I don't think we have an explanation in the Bible for why we admire one and laugh of the other.
It's called gender double standards and it has a cultural explanation. But if you think this is natural, you can always prove it. I'll wait.
[/quote]

If the double standard was instinctive very few people would go against it because it would be hard wired into our systems. The fact that the invention of the pill could change our society's views on female sexuality is proof that the double standard is the result of our culture and not natural to our species.
