Toxic Masculinity and Men's Shame

Hell just today some bitch got uptight because I held the door open for her... I hold the door for everybody, it's called being polite, it's not my way of psychologically teabagging you. ?

Honestly, if everything is "toxic masculinity" then nothing is.

Should've let it slam in her face..

1 healthy man is enough to impregnate 10-20 women in his life with ease. There is absolutely no shortage of sperm. The sperm by default worth nothing. Zero. Nada. 

 

This is actually a common misconception, if human civilization isn't roughly equally split between men and women and so doesn't reach it's natural genetic diversity, society will collapse in a few generations.

Doesn't follow.  Keeping males at 5-10 percent of the population and using them like stud livestock is probably not a good social strategy, but that doesn't mean that men don't produce that much sperm.

 

There's two separate issues there.

It doesn't matter how much sperm is produced, it's about how much genetic diversity is maintained.

News flash - women aren't genetically the same. Their diversity is enough.

They don't have to be the same, female genetic diversity will be diminished if the same 100 men are impregnating every woman because a child's genetic diversity is carried half and half from both parents. This is a separate issue from sperm disposability.

That's exactly what I've been saying, yes men produce more sperm then women produce eggs but the genetic material being carried on to the next generation is much more important then who has the most eggs/swimmers.

100 * 10 = 1000

 

The mankind is larger than 1000 people. It surely went though a couple of bottlenecks, but never was that small.

And then it doesn't stay the same, thanks to constant mutations.

 

Look at lions, they aren't even close in numbers to humans and still survive somehow with their male/female ratios.

A bit of lighthearted humor to cheer up folks - a Russian anecdote.

 

A dad and his son are in the zoo, near a cage with apes. The son points at an ape:

 

 - Daddy, is this ape a man or a woman?

 - It's a male.

 - Daddy, and this one? Is it a man or a woman?

 - Son, a man is the one with money. And this - he points at the ape - is a male!

Bottlenecks were only brief and ended in heavy migrations and tapering of genetic scarcity. Over time the results of a bottleneck will disappear, but if a bottleneck stays constantly the group will reach a point of no return with genetic problems. This is what killed many tribes in the past.

Human genetics doesn't stack linearly. A human is genetically much further to other humans than a lion is to other lions and that's because for us, our immediate parents contribute half of our genetic signature. The physical manifestations of said genetic features can vary based on many factors during and after conception, but both parents contribute just as much to the child and tampering with that breeding structure leads to bottlenecking and long term genetic anomalies on a societal scale.

Немного беззаботного юмора, чтобы поднять настроение людям - русский анекдот.

 

Папа с сыном в зоопарке, возле клетки с обезьянами. Сын показывает на обезьяну:

 

 - Папа, это обезьяна мужчина или женщина?

 - Это мужчина.

 - Папа, а этот? Это мужчина или женщина?

 - Сынок, это мужчина с деньгами. А это - он показывает на обезьяну - самец!

 

 

and Where laugh?

Apes with money... Man the russians need to lay off the vodka, at least enough so they can make a proper analogy lol

It was never an analogy. Other than a joke, it was a test - how many people will be offended by it for obvious reasons enough to get triggered.

No, just observing animals and humans will give you the same answer.

Of course you aren't, but suit yourself. I'm not here to draw salt out of you so no need for the snark.

I doubt anybody will be triggered by that, there's nothing offending about it. You might be overthinking this bit. Though don't you think an analogy has to make sense as well? I mean i understood the point but it's a silly analogy regardless. Just picture how bizarre it'll be to see an ape with a wad of cash. See? lol

If you want an easy, glib answer that doesn't go into politics, religion, politicalized religion or the religion of politics, here one goes: Toxic Masculinity is the male targeted version of the loaded concepts baked into the popular usage of the words and phrases Bitch, Cunt, Harridan or 'Nasty Woman'.

 

Essentially, behavioral traits which make members of one sex less manageable to those who would aim to wrangle them then use their efforts to reach their own constructive ends.

Like "they all look the same"? This is really scientific, you know. More scientific than studies showing that lions are one of the most diverse species of mammals thanks to their males walking long distances to establish a new pride. One could say that their males actually work to increase genetic diversity. That's how they kept up their diversity for ages (before people started disrupting it). Because even if you keep 1:1 ratio and all males get offspring, in a closed group where people rarely leave the tribe/vilage/town, the diversity will dive. It's not the raw numbers that matter the most, but dynamics. Just a relatively small amount of genes moving around the global pool is more that enough to keep the population diverse.

 

P.S. practical conclusion: if you want to get laid more, travel. And yeah, it works.

Смешно то, что ты переводишь с английского Гуглом мой перевод, вместо того, чтобы оригинал поискать.

 

Не знаю как кому - а мне смешно.
