In the lower animal kingdom, the male species primary goal is to have sex with as many women as possible. Human kind is no different.
So when males are friends with females, YES we do want to have sex with them. BUT women, may or may not, they like to have friends and gossip!
And Yes, male friends are friends with each other because it MAY lead them to having sex with other females. Why do you suppose males would like to hang out with other 'cool' men? 'Cool' men have prettier women right?
I have figured women like three things in men:
1) physical strength
2) intellect
3) money.
And these attributes of attractiveness came in that same order.
When we were primal beings, physical strength was important to supply food and safety. Pro-survival - therefore attractive.
Intellect came about when we became self-realised, grew imaginations and the such.
Money is only a recent thing. Money simply means your likely hood of survival is increased proportionally to your cash. Again attractive because pro-survival.
When you sit down and really contemplate what we are ... it is quite sad and plain. But I feel its important to realise why we do what we do. |
hahah lol. Some people have ready ****ed up views of man-women.
I agree with the first part, sure men like to have sex with many women. Thats doesn't mean though that women don't particulairy care for sex lol. Just listen to them scream, I'd say women want it more then men.
The thing is women usually screen for personality NOT looks/money/intellect. If you want to come with the evolution argument fine.
Here we go lets launch right into it.
Suppose you are a male caveman.
You live in a cave (duh).
You hunt for food.
You have very little personal stuff around.
No money
No cars
Now what will determine your overal chance of survival?
Is it really physical strength?
Money?
Intellect?
Well money wasn't around back then, you can definitley scrap this of the list. On top of that in our current age a stand alone mother can survive (with trouble, you won't die though which is sadly the only thing that matters for evolution) without a father even. The ability to provide in terms of physical stuff is entirely unimportant these days.
Physical strength is up next, this is a strong contender for sure (or so it appears). I mean more strength means more food yes? More strength means other males will submit right?
Well yeah, partially. It can definitley help.
We have to ask though what effects women in particular more, the amount of food a male brings in or the social position in a tribe?
You see in those times most males lived in small tribes. In these tribes resources are shared, the males with the highest social status get the first pick blah blah. Picking order and everything.
At that point the most important thing for women becomes a males social status. With it the odds of survival for him and his children increases dramatically. After all if the father can get to the top socially speaking then the odds that the children have the same characteristics increases.
So whats needed to climb a social ladder?
I doubt that the biggest factor is money, good looks (no mirrors back then) or physical strength.
I'd argue a males personality determines there faith more then anything.
Suppose you have 3 caveman males sitting around a fire. How is a women supposed to know who's the top guy around?
They are all equally dirty.
Could it be how other caveman react to him?
Could it be the way he holds himself?
Could it be all the little subcommunications he puts out?
I'd say yes to all 3.
A man's attractiveness is mostly based on his personality. The way he acts influences the males around him. If he's the first to act in a unfamiliar situation and the rest follow his leads (he's the leader of the pack). If he has confidence in his ability. If he has authority amongst his fellow caveman/women. Then he's going to be attractive to females.
Meh women are a lot less swallow then us men. They go for depth, not looks, money or physical strength. The thing is that the guys with money, looks or physical strength often give themselves permission to behave like REAL men. Cause and effect gets mixed up. Nasty situation.
This should pretty much invalidate the entire ladder theory lol.
Now I'm of to sunny spain, you guys have fun tearing this post apart. Fullcrum, defend my position. I know you know what I mean lol.
