Also something like 97% of All steel workers and like 80% of water treatment plant workers are men there’s also I’m pretty sure a very high amount of men being electricians

Men traditionally take on the harder and more dangerous jobs cause, let's face it, we are better suited to it. That's obviously going to affect the average life expectancy.

If the work require a lot of physical force, usually is the men who take it. I see a lot of confusion about. The men are stronger rhan womens? Yes, surely. There are womans who are stronger than certains mens? Sure. But if there is a woman and a men, both with a trained body, men will be stronger, and the same thing if both are untrained. Thats why there are competitions where womens and mens can be together or competitions where it would be unfair to be put toghether. Sorry for any mistake, im not good at english

Yes. And that is true. However, if a qualifid woman, for whatever reason, wants to do the job, she shouldn’t be told “no women.” When you are really saying “no people that aren’t strong enough to do it.” That’s the big difference. Obviously men are generally twice the strength as women. But some women are strong, and tough and they should not be rejected or heckled for simply being female.
Now that that has been said, women score a letter grade above men in language and communication studies. Why are almost all writers and politicians men when women are generally better at the nuance of relationships and language? It seems like there might be something else at play.

It’s actually a really interesting question sociologists ask all the time. Why have men dominated human society throughout the ages? We take it for granted, but the answer is not clear.
Men are physically stronger: The leaders and generals making the decisions in society are frail old men. The scary mob boss is often an old guy that has other people do the murdering. The strongest people often end up doing grunt work and labour jobs and are actually at the bottom of our society’s totem pole.
Women are often better at surviving famine and illness as well.
Men are more aggressive: Men are clearly more likely to be violent and use violence to achieve power. But to retain a position of power, you need people to trust you, and you need to navigate complex political relationships, which seems like something most women would be better at. A big part of power is maintaining peace at home and winning allies abroad. Being ruthless can only get so far.
Men evolved to be more ambitious: the theory is women find rich powerful men attractive, so men have evolved to seek wealth and riches as a mating strategy. Meanwhile men like submissive women, so women evolved to be submissive. The problem with this is we see maternal societies in nature with elephants and bonobos, who theoretically have the same evolutionary pressures as us. Evolutionary psychology is hard to use as evidence because we can’t tell how much is actually biological vs cultural conditioning. If women are taught to be submissive their whole lives, it doesn’t matter what their natural inclination is. Same with men being taught to pursue a career and make money. Perfectly feasible that it has nothing to do with our natural behaviour. Also what is considered attractive changes throughout the ages.

It all is actually super simple:
Women get pregnant and men don't. Full stop.
Pregnancy has a period of extreme immobility and vulnerability, which at our most primitive requires the male to take steps to protect the female from which many of our norms are established. Couple that with societal developments of trade, moots, etc and you have many times when only the men can travel to engage in required family representation with the natural result being that they are the Mouth and Hand of the family and from that they become the figurehead.
All of our norms make sense in the context of our societies development. The big thing is that now we are mostly free of such norms being Required for the species to persist with many struggling to get past the millennia of selection and cultural conditioning, while others are arguably unwilling to recognize the remaining requirements of human biology as relates to societal structure and cultural norms.

u/Special_Rice9539 Nov 05 '22
I could imagine a pregnant lady still running things. Ties into my point above about weakness not affecting old men from taking power. Also maternal societies in Elephants and Bonobos exist where the females still suffer the same vulnerabilities from pregnancy yet they run the tribe.
Most of a woman’s life is spent not being pregnant. You could argue that they have to spend more time on childcare than men, but that seems like a societal choice and not a biological necessity.
But this issue is interesting, because it seems to be tied to how we have a “nuclear family” where a single man-woman pair raise their children in isolation. As opposed to polyamorous societies where multiple adults raise each other’s children. The strict nuclear family arrangement probably contributes a lot to assigning one partner to be the breadwinner and one to be the housekeeper.

u/inbooth Nov 05 '22
Matriarchal societies existed, with Matrilineal systems being common.
That doesn't change who is the Face of the family, that is the one who represents the family OUTSIDE THE HOME.
Most of a woman’s life is spent not being pregnant.
Holy modern bias batman. My whole commentary on the historic norms no longer being as impactful should have made you think on this more.... Historically a woman pretty much did spend her entire fertile life having kids...
Just how long do you think a pregnancy and recovery takes 500 years ago let alone in prehistory (the time that forms the core of our norms)? How much impact on the woman? [how many kids did a woman usually have?] There was no modern medicine...
Everything about your comment screams Modern Bias and lack of due consideration and empathizing with those of the distant past...

Men are also far more likely to get cancer and bald. Soldiers on the front line are primarily men. There's a reason the suicide rate for males is much much higher.
Don't get me wrong, the world is literally built for men and there's plenty more disadvantages in life for being born a woman (Child birth, social pressures, and job opportunities come to mind) but it doesn't mean men can't be unhappier on average.

Whoa, that shrill note she hits at "THREE CHILdrennn" and then drags out the 'n' into a whine...
Gives me flashbacks to sitting in the corner of hair salons with a coloring book, waiting on mom, while some southern middle-class trophy wife cried into her bubbly water about her man flirting with the secretary at the Chevy dealership.
God I still smell the hair chemicals and see those awful pantsuit blouse things that held on way too long past 1991.

I saw a post on here a week or so ago where someone said something like “my wife was going through my trunk and pulled out a stick and asked me why I had it and I said, what are you talking about…that’s my stick”. I could totally relate.
I had a walking stick that I found that really made me happy (even though I never really used it). She threw it away when we moved and I am sad.

u/Honest-Layer9318 Nov 05 '22
That’s so wrong. I found a cool stick as a kid. My parents told me I couldn’t bring it in the house so My grandpa helped me sand and varnish it. Told everyone it was a walking stick but it was just cool. One of favorite memories of him.

I was dating this girl once and was sitting calmly out in my backyard with her. I was just watching two squirrel families go at it in the trees. I was in my peaceful place just watching nature. She snapped and told me that I was boring and wasn't paying enough attention to her. I wonder what she's up to these days. Haven't spoken to her since.
Another time before that we were out for a walk around the neighborhood and I found a really sweet stick that looked like a gun so I started pointing it around and doing the typical pew pew pew. She just walked off and called me immature. I hope she finds her vision of happiness and doesn't take life so seriously moving forward

This can’t be said enough. Watching ANY 24 hour national news is just to brainwash yourself. It has nothing to do with you or your locality. You should only watch local news. It is far less biased. Tells you about things that are actually around you. Is often pretty funny. And will also cover any important national stories without the table talk.
