OK...Now *I'm* Curious!!!!
| Wed, 03-09-2005 - 5:33pm |
I would like to submit the following:
"Human males are identical to every other male of every animal species on the planet. They are strongly, even singularly, driven by hormones and the urge to procreate. It is obvious that nature indented it this way.
Given this, what is so hard to accept about this? Is it that humans are supposed to be above this kind of force?

Of course we are supposed to be. I'm not saying we're not animals as well, but evolution has made us different. Our brain capacity is amazing and isn't shared by other animals, our power of speech gives us a means of expression that no other animal shares. We are above many of the things animals are captive to by instinct.
Examples
We don't eat our own feces
We have cultural taboos (not all the same, but we have them and follow them to remain social)
IF men are only penis driven, it's just sad. And I don't believe it's true. If you spend most of your daily life NOT screwing females, I think that only proves the point that human males don't follow their instincts.
Well, they're not extinct...maybe you should cloud your mind with some facts. :)
You're arguing with a masters level student in anthropology (the study of humans and their cultures)/ archaeology (the study of past human cultures) student. So I do know what I think about this kind of issue.
I'm not saying we don't WANT to have sex as often as every other animal, and indiscriminately..but the fact remains we DON'T do it. We modify our behavior according to what we think, and what our culture teaches us.
I've never heard that it's healthy.
More and more people are smoking too...I'm not following that crowd.
Anyway, I'm going to go practice karate (which I don't like, it hurts, but I do it for my good) with 20 good looking men (none of whom I will have sex with, it's against dojo rules to date each other).
I'm not trying to be bitchy, this just happens to be my area of expertise and I won't agree if I think the facts don't support the beliefs.
So you can talk about how wrong I am, and I won't interrupt. LOL
g'night y'all.
