if a mysogynist says "women never had the need to evolve interesting personalities or talents because evolution did not favour this type" where's he wrong?
If a mysogynist says "women never had the need to evolve interesting personalities or talents because evolution did not...
Wrong in sweeping generalizations.
well, is he mostly right though?
A better question would be, where is he right? The idea of "interesting personality" has nothing in common with evolution and is just a sad attempt to push shit from 21th century dating onto pre agrarian societies. As for talents, more able mothers could provide better for their children and aid their education more. Although it's still a very simplistic view of evolution ... and now I feel bad for taking the bait.
In the part he says that on Jow Forums and not on Jow Forums.
Or at an Alex Jones video comment section on YT.
Also, toxic behaviour. Don't even need to get into the merit of the argument to assess that.
Mostly right not equal to right. But, you're right though.
That’s stupid. It is largely genetic, a daughter of intelligent parents will be intelligent on average.
Is talent latent or learned?
What really constitutes a talent?
What constitutes an interesting personality?
Regardless it’s a bold assertion to make.
Believing you are right when asserting something so retarded is somewhat of a talent and certainly lends to an interesting personality.
Such brash retardation would be beneficial in the past, epigenetically speaking, so he might be correct!
You went full philosophy major to say the guy is stupid.
I respect that.
I’m a pretty stupid guy myself, so I was mostly just spilling my heart out. also in a bit of a tizzy right now and sort of lashed out gaaah
bless you though for the (you) , have a wonderful night sir vitre
Evolution didn’t favor it, it was the favor of the society she was living in telling her expression of one’s self is negative. Not everything is stupid.
Thanks... I guess?
The whole "man is the one who puts all the effort into courting" idea is modern.
Genes don't work like that, women aren't a different species. You get half of your chromosomes from your mom, and half from your dad. If your dad had the 'personality genes' to have a super interesting personality and your mom didn't, you'd probably end up with some mix depending on how many of the genotypes are dominant or recessive. However, personality isn't wholly genetic, either.
The reason (slightly) more women have bland personalities than men is because society wrongly tells them they're special and thus they never feel the need to develop as an individual.
Fuck, my pc removed my name again.
Misogyny is hatred of women. If the person saying that didn't hate women, and was instead making an accurate statement, then it's not misogynistic. It might be completely fucking stupid, but that's besides the point.
wrong in the assumption that women "evolved" in such a hugely different way than men. the differences in women and men are degrees of expression of the same basic traits. and genitals. with the exception of knocking a girl up, women can do, and have done, everything a man does.
also wrong is the assumption that women do not have interesting personalities. Like, has this person never talked to a woman? And saying that women are not talented is so hilariously wrong that it ruins any chance of anything else coming out of the person having any value
science does not prove this. it is almost impossible to identify the genetic component of intelligence. without that, it is just statistical regression on a shitload of closely related circumstances.
an "intelligent" parent is likely to have more money. money tracks very closely with academic outcomes. and this is just one example
>interesting personalities or talents
You would have to define what these actually mean
>where's he wrong?
He's wrong because he inherently believes that because he personally perceives that women do not have interesting personalities that they don't have any. He is a man on an island who believes that because he has never seen something that it doesn't exist. He is also making a baseless claim about evolution, using his assumptions on the matter to validate his worldview. Unless he is a trained evolutionary biologist or can provide some kind of scientific backing to this claim then the sentiment is empty and illogical. Human beings are cursed with our inability to perceive things beyond our own experiences. We have an incredibly powerful tendency to land on conclusions we want to believe and work our way backwards through the evidence instead of the other way around. This is all, of course, ignoring the fact that "interesting personality" is nothing even resembling an objective measurement.
There isn't anything wrong. It's completely true.
There's a reason only 40% of human males reproduced in history while 80% of females did. Because nothing has ever been expected or required of women besides having a vagina. And women have adapted accordingly.
Picture a typical date between a man and a woman. Is the woman ever trying to show off her personality to the man? Is she ever trying to make him laugh? No, the man is the only one who does those things. The woman just sits there and judges the mans performance.
