It's often discussed how male failure is a social issue we need to solve. Perhaps we don’t need to solve it. Those who are capable of adapting will. Those who are not won't be passing along their legacy.

@Iwillyeah @Daojoan @JoeChip @n_dimension @Iwillyeah @Daojoan that's the thing: we can lower our numbers by choice, or nature will do it. All sorts of collapses are underway (not like Revelation or anything, just inevitable consequence of our insatiable hunger). We will go down to extinction before we give up a single convenience. The race is on: will we kill ourselves before we render the planet inimical to life?  @Iwillyeah @JoeChip @Daojoan Or that people's lineage before them, or random chance for that matter, does not affect the offspring? @Iwillyeah @JoeChip @Daojoan Natural does not equal good. If we want good, we must influence nature and ourselves.  @Iwillyeah @JoeChip @Daojoan Do you think hope and will to be hubris? What's your alternative? I just noticed the OP's screenshot cited cited evolutionary psychology as the basis for its analysis. That particular academic field has developed a bad odor - it's perceived as a kind of reboot of social darwinism.  @JoeChip @Iwillyeah @Daojoan Yeah, evolutionary psychology is not a credible science. A lot of what they output is outright pseudo-science. The observation in the OP screenshot is interesting still, even if the analysis may not be worth the pixels it's rendered on.  I'd say the social issue we need to solve is looking at things through the lens of success vs. failure. For most things, that's a false and utterly unnecessary dichotomy. @EverydayMoggie @Daojoan In a way, this is what I mean. People should not have to earn "being worthwhile." If you exist, you're worthwhile. @EverydayMoggie @Daojoan  @EverydayMoggie @JoeChip @Daojoan we need to adjust what success means... And that's not right... We only see the big winner as a success, Did he still fail? @Fleurvervenne @EverydayMoggie @Daojoan He did not fail in following his internal compass. Some will fight to be someone even though it may mean nothing to anyone else. But we actually do live in a society. Those devalued by society or without support have only their internal compass to guide them and it is often not enough. Those that eventually give up become existential failures.  Oh great. @n_dimension @Daojoan @JoeChip @n_dimension @Daojoan @girlnamedwar @JoeChip @n_dimension @Daojoan @NicholasLaney @JoeChip @n_dimension @Daojoan might have to loom him up as i still dont know who that is... @girlnamedwar @JoeChip @n_dimension @Daojoan @girlnamedwar @NicholasLaney @JoeChip @Daojoan For a moment I thought "Googlehainm" was some sort of interwebs slang for artful google technique and now that I found out it's just dislexia... BRB Googlehainming. @n_dimension @NicholasLaney @JoeChip @Daojoan for me its both dyslectia, being tired but insomniac, and somewhat triggered... Although funniky enough one of my drafts titles came from a dyslectic typed word. @girlnamedwar @n_dimension @NicholasLaney @JoeChip @Daojoan You're pretty funniky, keep it up. 💙 @girlnamedwar @n_dimension @NicholasLaney @JoeChip @Daojoan Sorry, I didn't realize, mostly people just say some variation of "haven't woken up" and that they're dyslexic. Still entertaining though, happy little accidents 💙 @cohentheblue @n_dimension @NicholasLaney @JoeChip @Daojoan Well i have Dyslexia, mostly i manage to ctach my mistakes, but when its around 03:00 and i have been up since 06:30. it gets harder :) SO i was not mistake dodging  @n_dimension @JoeChip @Daojoan going to??? We already went there, we've been there so long, we already send postcards home... @Fleurvervenne @JoeChip @Daojoan I'm stealing that phrase and there is nothing you can do to stop me! MUAHAHAHAHA!!! @n_dimension @Fleurvervenne @JoeChip @Daojoan i have to agree, i like the phrase...has some great sass @girlnamedwar @n_dimension @JoeChip @Daojoan thanks... Its not my favorite...but i fear wulfy, will steal that one also @JoeChip @Daojoan failed men are adapting by electing regressive leaders. Title IX helped level the playing field for girls in school and now they are outperforming boys. Perhaps because earlier female brain development can shine through now? We need policies to help boys catch up. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/on-the-media/id73330715?i=1000677669138 @JoeChip @Daojoan I laugh so hard at the idea that this is a problem that we are supposed to solve. It’s funny that rather than be someone a woman would want to live with these guys are trying to pass laws to take away our rights so we are forced to live with them. Do they understand what happens when they force someone to prepare meals for someone who hates them? Good luck boys.  |
@JoeChip @Daojoan is there some sense that only our best people are reproducing?
