Oh my.

Don't piss me off, Taverner; I'm in a foul mood this evening.

Why does the male tend to want to dominate the female?

Seriously - the one thing you can trace through world history is our (male) desire to dominate the female.

Why is this?

And why should it be?

And how do we change this?

Feminist theory rightly points out that this is a historical constant.

WTF?

It's a big campfire, so only the PoP (primitives of prominence):

2. Isn't that a function of testosterone?

I could be wrong, of course...

Hmmmm.

The CalPig primitive's got to make only 340 more posts on Skins's island, and then she hits six figures.

Probably 326 of those needed posts'll be pictures of herself.

14. in the world of animal behavior we speak of proximal causes and ultimate causes....

Proximal causes are the stimuli that elicit behaviors, and ultimate causes are the evolutionary forces that select for or against those behaviors. In that sense, testosterone would be a proximal cause of male dominance (and it's somewhat complicated by a number of other factors, but testosterone certainly DOES promote aggression and domination, and more so in males than in females). But it's not the ultimate, evolutionary cause.

I'm late for a meeting but this is a topic that fascinates me. One thing to consider though-- if male dominance behavior wasn't adaptive-- that is, if it didn't increase the likely reproductive success of BOTH males and females, natural selection would operate strongly against it. After all, it has direct impacts on reproductive fitness. Its lengthy conservation, to which the OP alludes, argues against any strong selection to eliminate it. (Note to all-- that's not a moral or ethical suggestion, just a biological one).


Oops, that's all the PoP at this campfire, the rest being lumpenunterprimitiven.

35. We are all primates

And primates are a pretty warlike order

Only asks because of "his" inability to do so.

Taverturd, real women find metrosexuals to be discusting and easily dominated.

DUmmies and their constant quest to defeat human nature is the core of what makes them so hilarious to me.  That and their complete lack of any logical economic intelligence.

They will not rest until all men by law must sit down to pee.

Another things we can safely trace is that there's a hole in your arm where all the money goes, and apparently you don't have a dick.

Is Taverner feeling left out? Who thinks about these sorts of things?

Maybe that gal who made the "first time" would be willing to put the T-bum into submission?

If there were still newspapers, he could check the classifieds.

So far, Tav has struck out with the DU fat chicks, the loners group, and the LGBQTZY's. 

Next on his list must be the feminists.

The bug-man was having a blind squirrel moment there...the answer is that it is what it is, and it's that way because, biologically speaking, it has worked, and one has to say, it has worked pretty damned well, since our species has managed to outcompete every other mammal in the 'top of the food chain' stakes.

Well there is still the fat goth chicks at the Hot Topics store at the mall and the ones protesting with the occupy groups if they are still out there. The hard up druggies he meets must have turned him down otherwise he'd be a shoe in. I wonder if he would have a shot with some moonies?

Feminist theory is flawed. 

For example, everybody says Asian wives (I mean the real imports, not the ones made in the USA) are nice and docile and submissive.  Well, they might not shame their husband in public, sure, but it's a differnet story when they're home alone.  That is her domain, he is only there when he isn't working, which she will try to make him comfortable.  If you want to see how submissive she is, just let her husband try to tell her how to run her house.  He'll be lucky if he doesn't get stabbed.  I know all of this because one of my best friends is married to a Japanese woman and another is married to a Chinese woman.  They, the wives will tell you who run things in their house.

He's going to be in trouble with McDorkio. Sucking up to the flannel-wrapped bull feminist contingent over there is his schtick for connecting with the womyn.
