    Well, I was pretty blunt. But can you entertain the notion that you might not be an expert on female sexuality? Or that women’s behaviors may have more to do with societal training than biology?

    Like everything it is a biology and societal training. However, we can also observe females being choosy and coy in other species. The reason so many species have sexual dimorphism (including humans) is that quite often the male has to put on a show to entice the female. Sometimes the male has to battle other males for the privilege of mating. These battles led to a larger more aggressive male by natural selection.

    Women were given a bad hand by evolution. In the past a woman was often saddled with yearly pregnancies from age 13 till the menopause. The only way to avoid pregnancy was lactation of the offspring. Men can throw away sperm left and right and not have to worry about pregnancy. Blame evolution for that. Thankfully, today men are less barbaric and women can now avoid yearly pregnancies.
     
    During the summer I literally stopped watching news because all they ever talked about were the riots. It was non-stop. At the time the Republicans controlled all three branches of government, so if they wanted hearings and strict prosecutions they could have. It would have certainly fed the frenzy of their culture war-loving base.

    Trying to bring that up in the context on Jan. 6th is a really hollow position, but not surprising. All the far-right blogosphere and Twitter Parrots have are hollow positons.

    I don’t think you have a leg to stand on here in drawing your comparisons from the animal world. Maybe you could do some reading on the subject? Because what you are saying is a bunch of assumptions and conjecture. Also absent is the sense that you might not know everything. Just how I perceive your messaging on this subject.

    Saying I know nothing is flattering.

    However, you know quite well that is not an argument.
    Thanks

    Also, giving birth and nurturing infants isn’t what i would call being dealt a “bad hand”. It’s a privilege.

    I agree, but in humans the female has to endure 9 months of pregnancy and life long nurturing of the offspring while the male roams around looking for other places to spread DNA. This is what evolution did to us.

    As for mothering. I am a big fan of women that want to mother their children. I find that to be an attractive quality in a women.

    Yep, I mean how do you even have an honest, decent conversation when someone's political views are mostly based on lies and misinformation.....

    I’m not trying to argue with you. I’m just trying to get through to you that you may want to qualify your assertions with “I think” or IMO at least once in a while.

    OK, that is fair.
    But, please note that whenever I make an observation is does not mean I agree with the observation.

    Perhaps you should mention the observations you've made that you disagree with in this thread.
     
    Not a bad opinion on Biden's approach, success and media coverage of him. I'll admit that I relieved when he was elected, yet somewhat skeptical as to what he would be able to accomplish with his agenda. I've been pleasantly surprised so far.
    The Senate on Tuesday passed a $1.2 trillion infrastructure deal with 19 Republican votes. Had someone polled the White House press corps a month ago, few would have expected any bipartisan deal possible.

    Journalists at mainstream media outlets are creatures of habit laced with cynicism. They rarely anticipate how swiftly events can change or how dramatically the future can depart from the past. How often do we hear reporters remark that something has never happened — just before it happens for the first time? In their deep cynicism about politicians, they routinely scorn those who do not conform to their
    low expectations. (Too optimistic! Too naive!) Those tendencies help explain why the mainstream media have consistently underestimated President Biden and falsely predicted the failure of his agenda.

    Too many reporters, despite Biden’s success in delivering hundreds of millions of vaccines to Americans and passing a $2 trillion rescue plan, have maintained a default setting in their reporting in which Biden struggles to make good on his plans or underestimates his abilities to enact them. The administration, in this telling, is forever in some sort of “crisis,” and negotiations are always on the verge of failure. Whether this “Perils of Pauline” narrative is a deliberate effort to build drama into news or whether journalists fail to comprehend the complexity and dynamics of legislative negotiations, the result is coverage that leaves readers and viewers nearly certain Biden will fail.

    Biden is sort of a lesser LBJ. Neither strike me as accomplished Presidents but both had so much tenure in the Senate that they know how to negotiate and push through legislation.
