If only! But sadly no.

I mean we are. Yesterday saw a video of a male macaque waterboarding a juvenile much much smaller than him. Usually males do this type of stuff to kill the child so that the mother is able to reproduce again sooner. And thus increase his chances of reproduction. Except this one, was just doing it out of either play, or to assert dominance. Possibly both. Primates are creatively cruel too.

And when a member of high status within their cult turns out to be a peado, they suddenly don’t care.

It’s not generational trauma, as much as it is an attempt to feel powerful. It’s common for male macaques, chimpanzees, gorilla’s to assert dominance through violence. Especially when they don’t get their way. Females developed behaviors to avoid/combat male aggression. Such as simply letting a male mount them to avoid getting bitten more. It’s not forced copulation if you cooperate! That’s how chimps do. Who incidentally have the highest rates of violence against females of any primate. Which is impressive considering how violent they already are.

And humans are no different.

Women developed multiple behaviours that lower male aggression specifically. Crying and smiling both lower male aggression. Hence why women smile more and especially when nervous. Or cry more easily in stressful situations. Every girl I grew up with, was always cautious about rejecting a boy’s advances to avoid getting them angry. And so are the women, for good reason.

Men don’t just have a greater capacity for violence. They are more violent.

Check out Dr. K on youtube. HealthygamerGG is a channel ran by a psychiatrist that focusses on educating men and their mental health problems. It’s not a replacement for therapy, it may help you in the right direction.

I don’t understand this comment. What does the gender of the cheater have to do with it? Also, how is this a fun speculation? Trying to figure out how long you last against 1 goose seems more entertaining than guessing which of your friends is secretly a disgusting cheater.

Yup. Humans aren’t large animals. If you want to compare bodysize, check the weights of the animals and the heights of everyone on all fours. Humans are mid.

Sounds like she is exactly a stepparent type. Wanting to get rid of your partner’s child is common in monogamous animals. That said, it could be very real and you are absolutely right. She should be getting rid of herself.

I mean. They are not entirely wrong. Severe distress could result in a sponatous abortion.

Dunno. But it’s not worth the risks. If she really wanted, why not go on a date after sobering up?

If only my dad could read maps. I drive a lot when we go on vacation together, but often have to do the navigation as well. Read paper maps too since I was a kid because both my parents are horrible at directions. Was basically their tomtom before it existed. I was able to track the position with my finger fairly accurately.

I don’t mind navigating, but it sucks that he gets confused by it while insisting he does the navigation. Be it app or paper. I stay quiet and comply unless I expect the detour to be too much. He’s got to get the hang of it sometime. Surely.

Not true. Orca’s and dolphins very much do the same. Same as hyena’s, lions, all corvids, some primates, otters, elephants, buffalo, some parasitic birdd and more form mobs. Mob mentality is a great tactic.

Not per se. It’s a wide hip thing.

Oh yikes. Yikes yikes yikes. I would feel bad for her* if she* wasn’t such a petty evil person.

It’s all about power. People love having power and the men got their sky daddy’s favor.

Same, and I am moderately dyslexic. Enough so that I need to put more effort than normal into writing every word. Shame on everyone who missed it.

They absolutely are true christians.

What’s bad about discord?
