- k__ 3y agoDo "most" humans think that way?
- mcpackieh 3y agoYes, unless you're a racist who restricts your definition of humans to white westerners... Most of the global human population still has values which are 'traditional' relative to the average white westerner, but white westerners often have a blind spot for that and reveal this blindspot when they say things like "the whole world" to mean western nations specifically, and "the rest of the world" to mean Europe but not America.

- pixl97 3y agoIf for some reason most humans thought the Earth was flat, the idea would still be antiquated.
- trentearl 3y agoYes that is true, but that is a scientific fact and is not an appropriate comparison when talking about human populations and their approach to pair bonding, which is driven mostly by culture. So no, it’s not antiquated and your response requires looking at humanity through a very narrow and biased lens. Westerners can still appreciate our values while being in the minority. I do.
