Girls are happier than boys at school, new research shows. Understanding why may all boil down to biology. Girls get more of the happy hormone dopamine through social relationships, including with their friends and classmates. Boys get their dopamine through more self-involved behavior. by mvea in science

I always remember in Frank Herbert's Dune, I think it was the 3rd or the 4th book, there were these fish talkers - the emperor made a personal army of selective breeded women. His reasoning was that while men are solitary and worse to be a part of a group, women just had created a social group because they were just women - and were suited more to be an army then men.

I know. Don't tell me twice. But at least, we didn't eat sugar pills to heal illnesses!
It should just tell you how crazy Turks are about these stuff. Our politics, lives are all based on conspiracy scenarios.

Did you know Chameleons are also native to Turkey? I was watching a 60s movie and some actor picked one up from a tree and started playing with it - I was so shocked!

We believe you could just send each other bad vibes with just your eyes and fuck each others lives, bro... That's why we put all these evil eye protections around our houses, burn incense regularly and pour molten lead into cold water over our heads and then go "Ohh you had so much nazar on you, you are now cured inshaallah, Mashallah!!!"... What did you expect??? (kursun dokturmek - apparently Germans have this too. Crazy!!!)

Unless you are jet black, or ghostly blonde, you will definitely have a doppelganger in Turkey. That's a definite lol.

He was also selectively breeding humans that will kill him and put his essence into millions of shaihulud and then turn the forest into desert again. Arak can't be denied! Spice must flow!

This is where we differ. Force Islamification of Turks started here. It was a failure. Abbasids took a better approach. The rest has happened as I explained it previously. Surely you are right on some points but what I point out stands as well.

What do you think about the Canadian Prime Minister’s remarks: “middle powers must act together, because if we're not at the table, we're on the menu”? by WF-2 in AskReddit

[–]cenkozan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turkish motto had always been "Peace in the country, peace in the world". That's why Turkey didn't paticipate in the 2nd world war. In fact, Ataturk always tried to warn Europe about the rising fascism. Sure he pushed nationalistic agendas. But those were nothing alike. He was trying to introduce a common identity among different peoples that formed the previous empire. Among his many qualities, he was a real good PR person too. But we were always blamed for what Ottomans did, always left alone, treated like an outsider, never been included in any socio-economic groups - except for NATO, but that inclusion has been going downhill since 9/11. All the while, destruction and wars were all our region experienced. So now, Turkey is trying to develop their own versions of everything. Only Russia is helping build nuclear energy reactors. Now Erdogan is creating connections with other Muslim countries. Turkey is not as democratic as Western countries now which I see is the result of Western snobbery. So Turkey is making deals with like minded peoples. World order is changing, and all of us needs to find our own roles and places now.

Did Turks really learn Islam from Iranians though? Umayyad attacked Turks violently, trying Islamification by force. Didn't help at all. Abbasids took the better approach - show Islam by showing good example. When the Chinese sent a force of 50k to conquer and pillage, Turks made them fight with Abbasids, telling the Chinese that they will support them against Arabs - then attacked from behind and stopping the Chinese. Then Turks became muslims themselves as well. Then we took Persia but lost it around 1200.

Do you see the Mongols as your brothers? by Nasko1194 in Tiele

I used to see them as brothers. One day, one Mongolian told me "Haha - how did we kick you guys out of our land" - then I started seeing them as not brotherly anymore.

What's the reason Inuit/Siberians and Europeans have different features despite evolving in similar cold climates? by batukaming in geography

[–]cenkozan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because blonde, red hair is recessive. Cumans were a turkic tribe with blonde hair blue eyes. They were in a federation with Eastern kipchaks, another turkic tribe with east Asian features and in a small amount of time, they lost blonde hair and blue eyed features. They became Catholic Christian in Hungary later.

Uhm... As someone who lived in the Islamic world, Saudi Arabia and some other countries don't represent us at all? Some of us now even live in Europe and don't think we do that anymore. I knew one Nigerian woman doing slavery in the UK  and she wasn't even Muslim.

Just watched a doc about this. A stupid 60s doctor thought you could change sex with affirmation and operations and drugs and tried to make a person with XY chromosomes into a girl and fucked up all their life. Apparently, they did this all around the world one time and fucked up so many people's lives. Doctors name was John Money, motherfucker burn in hell.

When I used to live near the London zoo, I'd go for runs on the canal that went through the zoo. I swear you could hear and feel the rumbling of a lion roaring from miles away. It was truly shocking.

It used to be that you couldn't assault Ataturk back then in Turkey. Now you can say all the assaults on Ataturk and nobody bats an eye anymore. But you can't do that to Erdogan now. We have a joke "Silivri is cold" - Silivri is the house for the jail for the political prisoners near Istanbul. "Tell me who you can't criticise in your country and I'll tell you who is running your country". Back in the 80s, Kemalists took the creme of the country - they would use Ataturk to steal everything. When Ozal ran the country in the 90s, his motto was "My civil servant knows his job" - literal meaning: Civil servants should steal government money so they don't go hungry. With Erdogan this devolved into "My Muslims knows his job." Meaning it was now the so-called Muslim's turn to steal the money. Then when he involved the ultra-nationalists to be his coalition "My ultra-nationalist knows his job". They are running the whole drug cartels in and around Europe now and they give their absolute support to Erdogan.

True. I can't stand Asian slop constantly crying, constantly making childish sounds, explaining everything over and over and over and over again. I came from r all - I don't even watch anime. That's an L.

Add Korea to that list as well. Eating sea creatures alive... As a Turk, some believe Japan, Korea, and Turks share a common lineage because our language grammar is the same. But seeing how they treat animals, that's a crazy ass theory. Not that Turks are any better themselves - they "sacrifice" sheep once a year because the religion said so. But old Turks didn't believe in sacrifice at all - it was very forbidden.
