"Men are judged by utility." I didn't realize this until recently. Rude awakening. Even the most close relationships turn out to be quite transactional.

"Men are judged by utility."
I didn't realize this until recently. Rude awakening. Even the most close relationships turn out to be quite transactional.
- jelliclesfarm 4y agoBetween the two genders, men also disproportionately take the lion’s share of the spoils of war/relationship/employment/power/clout. So here when men are judged by utility, it is essentially competition between the males of the species themselves. It isn’t dissimilar to ape societies or lions. The alpha wars are happening due to testosterone. There is most certainly an evolutionary and biological reasoning for this. This has nothing to do with women. Please leave us out of this.

- throwaway11823 4y agoI'd like to push back on this. I feel my friends & SO love me essentially unconditionally, but are simply ill-equipped to express that in a supportive way.
- fleddr 4y agoI think that this is technically true in most cases, but love isn't technical.
