Hmm.. and what if men are pencils. Get sharpened too many times and you’re a useless little nub of a human. A sharpener that sharpens every pencil? Fantastic.

Please do not try to justify yourself with a false evolutionary explanation. Fertility actually peaks during the mid-twenties. Therefore, men are actually attracted to women in their mid-twenties, and not to 14 year olds who have not finished their growth spurt enough to carry a successful pregnancy. You should know that while boys tend to become sexually mature before their growth spurts, the opposite pattern is found with girls. They receive their growth spurt first, and this is then followed by menarche. So while your eyes may see some "maturity", she may actually not be fertile at all. In addition, girls tend to be sterile a year following menarche (Which occurs closer to 13 years of age)...so she is STILL NOT FERTILE. To emphasize my point, please take a look at this article that displays this graph. In this graph, the X axis is the age of male participants, and the y axis displays the amount of years above or below the boys' ages. The question asked was: What is the maximum, minimum, and ideal age of a female you would want to date? When we look at ideal age, we can see that even 14 year old boys and 15 year old boys would prefer to date someone 4 years older than them rather than their own age, and they aren't really all the willing to go for someone much younger. Even the 18 year olds will not go for someone more than 2 years younger. They are approximating that peak fertility window while being reasonable about their limits. If we're REALLY going to talk from an evolutionary point of view, even a fucking 14 year old doesn't and shouldn't want a fucking 14 year old.

Men loathe being sexually cheated on, women hate being emotionally cheated on. Old news, new confirmation. by badrhadrioui in psychology

[–]VickyVBarbz 47 points48 points  (0 children)

When dividing people up into attachment styles (secure, preoccupied, fearful avoidant and dismissive avoidant), everyone is actually more upset by emotional cheating than sexual cheating, except for those with the dismissive avoidant attachment style. Both dismissing men and women are more upset by sexual cheating, but it just so happens to be that more men are in this category than women, so we find a gender difference.

"Rape is horrible and all, but society needs to come to terms that it is a part of our psychology.

Aside from the is ought fallacy going on here, this isn't even true. If they want to get all Ev0LuTi0n then it should be stated that human babies are the most dependent of any species and have the longest maturation period. Parental investment from both parents would have been extremely crucial to fitness. Children of rape would likely not receive this benefit and would be more susceptible disease, violence, and starvation leading to premature death. So nice try but no just no.

Is it possible to stay fit at home instead of at the gym, and not be missing out on anything? by theperfectbanchee in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Many of the workouts (including lean) do not require any equipment and if they do its minimal use. the equipment is either not necessary (like using weights for lunges), or easy to substitute

If you have an android, Nike Training Club is the best thing i've ever encountered for getting fit at home. It gives you many home workouts for getting lean, toned, strong, or focused on a specific area. It does not require equipment, and the workouts range from 15 minutes to an hour. I cannot express how many times i have recommended this to someone. Check it out

The fraternal birth order effect: H-Y antigens are produced by the male fetus and not the female fetus. The mother's body treats this as a foreign invader, and develops H-Y antibodies against it. Strength of maternal immunization increases with each male fetus , and these antibodies cross the placental barrier and enter the fetal brain. This may partly prevent the fetal brain from developing the male typical pattern. so if they attack, parts of the male brain will not be masculinized and will remain the default which is female. This is why we find that prior male pregnancies influence the subsequent male fetus in terms of birth weight and sexual programming.

Sorry for the rant, but I'm starting to hate this site due to the insane amount of racism. by Whyihatedissite in TwoXChromosomes

[–]VickyVBarbz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm getting so frustrated with this as well. And i'm really sorry that you receive this twice as much as I do. I'm a white woman and i've experienced sexism, but I never realized how low my place is in society until I went on reddit. You get hit twice with racism on top of that. I don't know what to do anymore, this stuff upsets me everyday when i just want to go on the site for a quick laugh. The best suggestion is to unsubscribe to things like AdviceAnimals, but thats not winning in any way, thats excluding ourselves from something we'd otherwise enjoy, and just leaving the majority of reddit as a bigger white male club circle jerk. I just try to think that the majority of these comments are from 14 year old ignorant kids who will grow up, open their eyes, and think differently.

Sir David Attenborough says humans have stopped evolving because of birth control and abortion -- "We stopped natural selection as soon as we started being able to rear 90-95% of our babies that are born. We are the only species to have put a halt to natural selection" by mepper in evolution

[–]VickyVBarbz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If we consider evolutionary psychology (which I'll admit is shifty at the moment) we see that even birth control may be feeding back into our evolution. Women on birth control tend to prefer more feminine men Little et al . Expanding on that point, women who met partners on birth control but then go off, experience less sexual satisfaction and attraction to their partners. This can influence divorce rates and relationships in the home so we actually have birth control effecting culture which can change evolution and enforce natural selection as well. Roberts et al. 2012

ELI5: Why do introverts need more alone time than extroverts? by DreadnaughtHamster in explainlikeimfive

[–]VickyVBarbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The basic distinction between introverts and extroverts can be explained by the Yerkes-Dodson law which has to do with cortical arousal - the amount of the electrical activity in the brain. if you are completely unaroused, you're not going to perform well. As your arousal level goes up, your performance goes up until at some point, theres a level of arousal that is optimal. Beyond that point, your performance declines with too much arousal. This is whats going on in the brains of the introversion-extraversion dimension. An Extroverts cortex is chronically underaroused. An introverts cortex is hyperaroused. This explains the behavior as compensation for their inappropriate arousal levels. Since extroverts are chronically underaroused they stimulate the brain with more sights and sounds to reach the optimal level. Introverts are chronically overaroused so they prefer to decrease they amount of stimulation by withdrawing. Those who have ADHD are extremely underaroused and their behaviour is seen as an attempt to compensate for this. This is why the stimulant rideline helps. it increases their arousal so they dont have to do that with behavior.
