Because we are cheap and disposable and way more generic than even those who are aware of it can conceive.

- tgv 3y agoCareful. It's only one small inference to women being valuable, and a socio-biological explanation of why so many groups tended to protect women and the consequence for the power balance. Just for the trigger happy: I'm not saying we should lock our women behind the kitchen counter in a modern society, but that roles are much, much older than that, and may have an evolutionary reason.
- jtode 3y agoI speak only ever about men. I am one, I can comment. I look around at us and I call it like I see it. edit: Not that I don't have thoughts about other genders, and gender in general. In genderal. I even sometimes find it politic to share them. But I will never hesitate to point out men being men. Particularly my fellow whities.
- finebalance 3y ago... like women are all special and interesting by virtue of being female? Most of humanity is bland and forgettable. Gender is hardly a factor there.
- tgv 3y agoThe comment hints at the fact that a group can easily loose a large number of their males, because it doesn't have to hinder procreation. Losing women is much harder to recover. Being special or interesting doesn't come into the equation.
- imtringued 3y agoAh yes, nothing more beautiful than a man impregnating a woman and then divorcing her to do the same thing again with another woman and another woman... Wait no, that guy is an asshole.
- programmer_dude 3y agoIt's not that simple. A group losing a large number of their males will lead to more incestuous relationships down the line.

This effect seemed to be due to men being viewed less negatively the more egalitarian a country was rather than women being viewed more positively." So, yes! At least some people think so.
