The benefit of choosing a twisted title scrawled in a twisted language other than the one everybody of us is used to, I have been thinking for quite a long time, might lies on the fact that this would ward off those who don’t have a serious understanding of evolution and evolutionary psychology and those who will just be twisted by the twists, and thus avoid as much misunderstanding as possible --if there is any at all. No introduction of theoretical bases, this is going down directly to the biological grounds of sex, the differentiation of reproduction roles of different types of organisms of a species.
When it comes to sex, which to many means attractiveness, courting, mating, affair, love etc, is in reality, or in what some call it Evolutionarily, a division of ‘labor’ within a species with regard to the roles taken in the process of reproduction.
Mammals of the gender “other than male”, in general, take on most of baby and juvenile care, especially in the early stages of development. Delicate, limp, fragile, helpless as human infants are, a great deal of matenal care is needed. Wonder why an aggressive male giant troll, whose power might legendly overthrow a mountain, can be magically melted down by a slim, tender, “considerate” opposite sex? This is the answer: he relies on the opposite sex to care for his babies, a duty he is not capable or not willing to fulfill.
If you have a close look at a new born human baby, if you have a little experiences on how much a baby wails or squeaks, if you have a brief picture of how long it takes for him to develop into a fullgrown, it is no wonder that males not only pay attention to the physical features of his mate, but also to personal mental factors: softness, kindness, tenderness, considerateness, and loads of NESSes if you can imagine. And, more or less, believe it or not, since these two set of characters, namely, one of which characterized by beauty and the other tenderness, are born to the same individual, they are bound to be interrelated. Nevertheless, for all sorts of mammals walking this planet, Homo sapiens males are the only creatures that pay so much attention to physical and mental traits to of other sex.
This will serve as a brief openning to future posts on this subject if there will be any. If you’ve had a glimpe over my earlier posts, implicit though they might be, this is not the first one.
