@EliasofNE Kleptogamy: John Maynard Smith's "Sneaky fucker" strategy. They are usually low status/dysgenic and advocate for positions antithetical to their interests in an attempt to get laid.

@_Zeets The best part.

@StefanMolyneux "Whenever feasible one should always try to eat the rude".

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@ImMeme0 Likely some kind of "behavioral aposematism" due to high trait neuroticism, and also part intrasexual competition where other women deceptively encourage it to reduce competition.

@StefanMolyneux The ring is a form of zahavian signaling. I suspect a female equivalent, given the existence of paternity uncertainty, would be giving up her surname in place of yours.

@StefanMolyneux Evolution being amoral is irrelevant to the fact that morality emerges through evolution. Changes in gene frequency due to differential reproductive success results in complexities, including morality.

@ItIsHoeMath "EQ" is just trait agreeableness (doesn't load onto g). Low agreeableness tends to predict success more than high, and even low agreeableness has predictive power beneath IQ, trait conscientiousness (work ethic), and neuroticism (stress tolerance). OP is not even close.

@Devon_Eriksen_ Throughout the biosphere, universal altruists die out to kin selectionists. Attempting a color-blind society while all the visitors maintain in-group preferences turns us into universal altruists amongst an ocean of kin selectionists. We are as blood in the water.

@JAYVERSACE Cooking food externalized some of the digestion process which permitted our stomachs to shrink and the calories instead to go to our increasing brain size (limited by women's birth canal). I recommend "Catching Fire" by Richard Wrangham for a general synopsis of the literature.

@jollyheretic Shadows are just absence of light, much as cold is just absence of heat. I'm uncertain of anything existing "in the negative" that is physical.

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@SwipeWright Evolution by natural selection and sexual selection account for most of it. Human uniqueness of the brain stems from cooked food externalizing digestion and our altricial nature encouraging neoteny. There is no point at which I see any necessity for divine intervention.

@hollowearthterf No, women live longer due to an antagonistic pleiotropic effect on men. By your logic, women are inferior to a tortoise. Also "more evolved" is a gross misunderstanding of evolution. Please tell me this comment is meant to be parody.

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@hollowearthterf Correct. Women are more empathizing (oriented to people) and men more systematizing (oriented to things). Men are also lower in trait agreeableness on average (likely contributor to narcissism rates) and women higher in trait neuroticism (more prone to emotional dysregulation).

@gmiller Used to think religious ideation only hurts scientific inquiry. Neo-Scholasticism encouraged elites to self-regulate. To lie about reality was to blaspheme. Nowadays science is viewed as a means to career advancement and social engineering, both of which encourage deceitfulness.

@FromKulak Degree of k-selected vs r-selected might be a contributing factor. https://t.co/UMPJ9BP1tw

@AuronMacintyre Played this at an extremely young age. The Dracula portrait in the hallway would terrify me to such an extent I would have to get my dad to turn off the game for me.

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@GiftsUngiven_ Agreed on rap being detestable though I would argue the worst genres of music are a subset of atonal music advanced by Schoenberg and his sycophants Berg and Webern; twelve-tone serialism and set theory. Most people believe rap to be the worst because it is mainstream.

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@SerenaJB3 Species considers if two populations can produce fertile offspring. We are the same species. We are not, however, the same subspecies (race). This is evidenced by the phenotypic differences attributable to allopatry (Ernst Mayr's "Systematics and the Origin of Species").

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@th_l_t_d_ Hence their proclivity to label disdain for various groups as "phobias".

[Stygian @Stygian218]

@remnantposting IQ scores on the Wechsler scales, the most utilized tests, only measure up to four standard deviations above and below the mean (40-160). Also IQ points don't have decimals.
