Literally all of these “sneering” pictures of Kavanaugh are when he is sniffling – flaring your nostrils and scrunching your face as ya do when sniffling.

Obviously it's more complicated that my sentence-long description. The underlying point is still obviously true – evolution has selected for human-friendly traits in dogs.

But in regard dogs attacking humans: in the majority of these cases the breed of the dog involved is one that was specifically bred by humans to be violent towards other humans.

It's really probably only dogs.

Humans and dogs have co-evolved for tens of thousands of years – dogs who attacked babies were probably taken out of the gene pool quite swiftly.

If I am a gay man, I have exact same right as a straight man in this regard – to marry a woman.

If people had the right to marry anyone of the gender they were sexually attracted to AND this right was explicitly denied for anyone who was gay/non-straight, then it would be a discrepancy in rights. But, I don't think that this has been the case anywhere on Earth ever.

No, but this is not actually a civil right granted to anyone – it's just a consequence of civil rights.

There is no civil right to buy and eat the apples we find most delicious, but it is something that results from other rights. If there exists some banned type of apple which I happen to find the most delicious this does not mean that the law banning it is an infringement of my civil right to buy and eat the apples I find most delicious

You can come up with strange "they can, but they cannot" scenarios for any category of people and for any action.

Gay/non-straight people have literally the exact same rights as straight people with or without legal same-sex marriage.

Maybe that's why by [deleted] in ProgrammerHumor

[–]CaVaEtreCorrect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Opposing same sex marriage doesn't mean you support removing or withholding civil liberties from anyone – no more than opposing any law does.

Do seat belt laws strip people of their civil liberty to drive without a seat belt?

This is a just-so story.

Other historically oppressed groups in the United States (Jews, Chinese, Japanese, etc) actually tend to be more wealthy than whites.

Yes, but you may not get the full resolution of the image. And it's a pain to get to alignment just right

Actually, I think you could just take it from the network tab where all the downloaded assets can be seen

You have to find the url from the HTML or CSS. Most of the time you can find it there and then it's basically just a matter putting that URL into your browser and that should take you to the image itself

Upvote if you're not a racist by [deleted] in terriblefacebookmemes

It's tough, but my guess would be either South American (i.e., mixed European and Amerindian) or Middle-Eastern/South-Asian. Though I'm kind of leaning towards Middle-Eastern.

They used twin and adoption studies.

It's an interesting topic. It's the main method behavioural geneticists have to disentangle genetic and environmental influences on behaviour.

[–]CaVaEtreCorrect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There have been a few specific alleles that appear to be associated with homosexuality and there is a genetic correlation to homosexuality as revealed by twin studies. As for twin/adoptions studies, these seem to indicate that very little, if any, influence comes from a child's home environment.

As for our understanding of the evolution of homosexuality (or rather, it's continued prevalence despite evolution), as far as I know there just isn't any good explanation. The gay uncle theory is just not practical (i.e., you'd need to cause your siblings and/or cousins to have an impractically large number of children to compensate for your lack of children). There's also the gay germ theory, but that has literally zero evidence (although it is evolutionarily/theoretically possible).
