You don't think there's an evolutionary advantage to getting at girls first when they're young as possible before other guys do? You don't think that advantage from that behavior got passed into genes? Why do you think it happens? There's no rational sociably equitable reason for it. I'm not sitting here condoning it. It's obviously bad. Youth generally comes with all the indicators of health. I don't think you consider the word 'natural' the same way I do. You think of natural as being 'okay and healthy' and I think of it as 'wild, competitive, and not consciously regulated'. Behavior is not generally without reason. Everything is because of reasons.

We are no longer hunter-gatherers doing what is needed to survive the seasons. We live in a fucking modern society. What the fuck. 😵‍💫

Yes, obviously, but evolution is slow. The last 100,000 years has done next to nothing.

Against my better judgement I'm gonna try to respond to this.

You don't think there's an evolutionary advantage to getting at girls first when they're young as possible before other guys do?

To begin with, prepubescent girls can't get pregnant. After that, young girls have an increased risk of not being able to carry a pregnancy to term, dying in childbirth, and of birthing children who end up underdeveloped.

You don't think that advantage from that behavior got passed into genes?

No, then it would likely be more commonplace instead of being abnormal.

Youth generally comes with all the indicators of health.

I strongly disagree with this assessment when it comes to people who have not physically developed into adulthood yet.

Behavior is not generally without reason. Everything is because of reasons.

Sometimes those reasons are because something has gone wrong. Or because of random chance. To think every behavior fulfills an intended purpose that is evolutionarily beneficial is unscientific in my view.

Ok so I'm not taking about pedophilia I guess. It's the middle ground one where's it's post puberty because that's what makes sense. Gotta also consider the social aspect of it. Claiming a girl while she's still so young is likely to mean she's around when she can have a baby.

You're right that some behavior can be totally random because of an error and the error is reason, but it really seems like there's a LOT of pedophiles and rapists. I can only imagine there's a much more compelling reason.

Edit: I'm glad you're not one of the trolls.

"getting at girls" "as young as possible", even post-puberty is basically pedophilia, do you not agree?

this sounds like incel logic disguised as sensible evolutionary science. we have social etiquette that requires treating these topics with a delicacy that you have completely ignored which raises all sorts of red flags. if you want to be listened to about controversial topics then you are going about it in an awful way.

Etiquette stops the instant someone calls me a pedophile, incel, or otherwise tries to their me under a bus. Get fucked.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

You started with the incel arguments

That first sentence made me physically recoil. What is wrong with you? Go seek help, for all of our sakes.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What's wrong with me? Absolutely nothing. I'm just looking at evidence and not covering my eyes pretending everyone is above the shit they're consistently caught doing.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

There's a lot of fucking things wrong with you
