I feel like Fuentes is probably out of the Rat King's league. He seems to have at least heard of a toothbrush, and Ashley St. Clair claims that he's much better read than most online fascists (which tracks with what I've seen of him, he's at least aware of history and politics even if his conclusions are batshit).

But still a valid justification for being gay. And I'd hazard it's a requirement that you find men far more attractive than women. Because if you don't, then you are merely Bi, (and might have the best of all worlds-- we need more science on that I think).

As a bird lover I do have to note that some female birds have intricate colorings that humans can't see given our limited visible spectrum capabilities. Birds are tetrachromats, they can see UV for the most part. Starlings are a good example.

Small_Quasar@lemmy.world · 38 pts · 85d (2 replies)

Men and women. Males and females. Girls and boys. People are obsessed with gender to the point they forget we're all just human.

Last night I was watching these two chuds watch one of my favourite movies (Children of Men) and one of them, responding to Julianne Moore's character's behaviour said "Ah, I HATE women like that!" and it genuinely caused my brain to skip a beat. There was nothing about the character's actions that was specific to female behaviour. I don't understand why he couldn't have said "I hate PEOPLE like that."

I am an aspiring writer. I did a beta reader swap with one of my colleagues who just like me would like to be a sci-fi author. He was desperate to know how I was "so good" at writing women. Dude, lol, it's not hard. Literally all you have to do to avoid all the men-writing-women pitfalls is remember that women are human beings first and women second, with all the same desires, hopes and fears as men.

The argument about birds is ignorant because of basic behaviour ecology. Arguing from Zahavis handicap hypothesis males display strength by giving themselves a handicap. Being highly visible, lumbered with pointless feathers.

Females are camouflaged since they often are the ones on the nest.

Yeah, evolutionarily, the more conspicuous male birds drew away predators that would have otherwise attacked the nest. Thus making it more likely their offspring survived.

Zier@fedia.io · 28 pts · 85d

Individuals are beautiful or ugly based on what an individual likes/dislikes. Not an entire gender. And no one has ever needed makeup, that is a choice, not a requirement. Putting makeup on someone you find repulsive will not make them acceptable, how stupid these people are.

Historically, men did have to be pretty and capable for woman to chose them, so they dance, sing, apply make up to look pretty so they're picked by women for mating. But the incapable men of patriarchal society made women do makeup so they can pick and choose women like they're shopping. Woman don't need makeup to look pretty, it's the men that should be.

For an equally unscientific, vibes based counter-argument (not to be taken seriously): Would it not stand to reason that a highly intelligent social species like humans (that also lacks obvious physical features intended to attract a mate, like the peacock's feathers) would select a partner that is good at being social (ie. not being an arsehole) and that this is where these incels fail?

flying_sheep@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 83d

Iirc Sapolksy’s lectures point out that according to sociological studies, humans are pretty much smack dab in the middle when it comes to the attraction generated by men that give ”muscular territorial fighters” vs the ones giving “soft caretakers”.

So it depends on the individual if they're more into peacocks or empathetic men.
