Of course not, but never let empirical observation get in the way of boldly logicking your way to an explanation.

Like the kind of desire that would compel them to provide alcohol to, and seduce, a 17-year-old they have known since they were first graders?

there is plenty of evidence that men prefer younger partners and women prefer older partners. That actually held up in every single country they tested this, proving it's cross cultural and thus almost certainly biological. There are plenty of other biological differences in sexual partners and sex life in general that have been measured but that is the most striking one.

This doesn't justify claiming asymmetry as a reason to think "less bad" of argento acts. Because asymmetry already touches the fact that young girls are attracted to people with money and power for biological reasons. And old age correlates VERY strongly with power and money.

"A man can move himself two points higher on the attractiveness scale we used if his salary increases by a factor of 10," study author John Speakman told The Times.

"For a female to achieve the same two-point effect, her salary would need to increase by 10,000 times."

The evidence of asymmetry in sexual partners preferences are overwhelming and basically denied exclusively by radical leftists.

Close to denial there is the somewhat more common position of "it's 100% cultural" which is only slightly less embarrassing to hold

More generally as poker players you all know that a statistical drift however small if compounded by volume explains most results. Wether that is the rake, or a player edge vs the competition, even if it's as small as a 0.1% systemic edge in hu sng winrates, given a big enough volume it explains basically the entire results of the dataset.

Now we know for certain that hormones influence behaviour. We know for certain the males and females differ biologically in amount of produced hormones. So we know at 0.999999999 p level that males and females behaviour are biologically different (and hormones aren't the only thing influencing behaviour of course). We know for certain that behaviour influences preferences.

So we are 100% sure that preferences for males and females differ (however slightly), biologically.

Now as we said however small the drift, if volume is big enough, not only it shows up evidently in the data, but it explains most if not all of them.

Volume for male and female expressed preferences through differences in behaviour is billions of acts PER DAY.

Even if the difference between the 2 groups was ultrasmall, and much smaller than intragroup differences, you still see it as clear as sunlight in the data.

So you're still pinching women's asses on the train then?

am i in the wrong forum?

Yeah.

it appears you were right.

They are going to air the already registered parts, but she is out of the show. At least according to variety.

It’s very rude that Luciom assumes everyone here players poker.

Of course there's tons of evidence. Essentially all violence in the world is committed by men, including sexual violence. The asymmetry is demonstrable and obvious.

That isn't evidence for Sklansky's claim.

You think that's a bigger factor evolutionary speaking than that males had sex with relatively low consequences while females had sex with relatively high consequences. Makes it a much bigger decision for the female.

This is all pre-human (and even before homosapien) culture of course. Way way before pregnancy was a choice independent of sex

It might be for his conclusion, though.

His evolutionary explanation is surely bogus, yes, but it's probably not that important to his implicit argument either.

The fact that an asymmetry exists, whether due to biological causes or sociological causes or both, is irrelevant to this instance. No one gets to **** someone who doesn't want to be ****ed by them, no matter how many other people want to **** them, and when someone says they don't want to **** someone else, they are to be taken at their word.

Also the fact that the most performing male could breed in the thousands while that's physically impossible for females (in mammals). Which strongly suggests that male variance of talents is higher than female variance of talents for that reason.

Which means most human wretches will be male. Which means that the most heinous acts will be overwhelmingly performed by males in a society.

Why the **** did the New York Review of Books publish a self-serving #MeToo reflection from a Canadian radio host who got taken down by accusations from 20 women? Slate asks their editor!

Staggering.

Glad you posted this as I've been posting way too much in the lolCanada thread.

Bet the ones he choked were trying to do Islands in the Stream. Always stepping all over the male part.

Finding out Ghomeshi was a scumbag really sucked. He was in one of my favorite bands in college.

This isn't my explanation. It was something I read many years ago and it has an official name which escapes me but would not be hard to look up.

The really smart people on this forum must cringe when they notice some of the errors they have to overlook so as not to alienate people who share their political philosophy.

Phlogiston and the luminiferous aether are just two examples of things that have official names and are also definitely wrong.

McD's workers walkout over company's lack of action.

On Tuesday Harrell and hundreds of other McDonald’s workers will protest outside the fast-food giant’s restaurants in 10 cities across the US, highlighting what they claim is an epidemic of sexual harassment for workers that they say the company has done little to address.

Workers in Chicago, McDonald’s home town, Durham, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, Milwaukee, New Orleans, Orlando, San Francisco and St Louis will all walk out at lunchtime in an effort to highlight their struggle and call on the company to take action.

Editor of the New York Review of Books is out amid outrage over Ghomeshi’s #MeToo essay

Jian Ghomeshi is almost certainly a tool, but it really didn't help that Lucy Decoutere - the Trailer Park Boys actress and 'main' victim - lied about almost everything, talked to the other 2 girls about what to say and is an absolute nutcase. His lawyer had the easiest job ever.
