      This implies that there’s some sort of evolutionary advantage to getting sloppy seconds. I don’t know how I feel about that.

        Well, do you think women consent was at thing back in the early days of homo sapiens?

          Consider that one of our two closest ape relatives is the bonobo. They settle arguments with head jobs, ask for favours the same way

          We’re clearly not as bad as ducks

              I sort by new comments, so this thread would have appeared in my feed because that previous person commented in it

          i mean yeah, if your tribe goes around raping other tribes’ women that’s going to get everyone you know and love put on the “kill on sight” list.

              bro 7 months is fucking nothing on the internet, people reply to 7 year old comments all the time. This is a forum not a chat

                Sorry bro but this is a Reddit like platform, not an old school forum, people don’t care about 7 months old posts… Hell they don’t care about a 2 days old post.

                  and yet you had to say this, so clearly people do care about old posts, and you’re the odd one out.

                    The only reason being that you resurrected the conversation for them by replying to me.

                    The vast majority sorts by “all top 6h” so no, I’m not the odd one out and you’ll notice it if you start paying attention to the age of the comments you’re replying to.

          Yes I do. Do I think every sex was consensual? No. Do I think at least 1% of women had at one point consented to sex? Yes.

        We are animals, monogamy is not a part of humanity like it is in penguins.
        Our penises reshaped over millenia of orgies just to get all the other guys cum out. We are sluts of the animal world, like rabbits

          when you realize this it makes a lot more sense how fucked up the world is, of course everyone’s going to be miserable when they’re evolved to have sex at least 3 times per day with 5 different people and yet things look like they do!

            I think it says we’re better off than other animals. Human women would fuck multiple men, the men competed to have better dicks for extracting his cum and replace it with yours

            Other animals fought for the chance to mate, it seemed like humans shared

              i mean yeah evolutionarily we have a better setup, but i’m talking about how things are right now.
              right now most people are constantly stressed out and feeling like absolute dogshit, and it’s no wonder when we’re all so miserably isolated. Humans are absurdly social creatures, we need contact to survive, and yet society is built in a way that makes it extremely difficult.

        It implies that there were enough guys getting sloppy seconds for dick shape to give a reproductive advantage.

        While it could have been from a lot of free love in the ancient past, I suspect it’s more likely much darker than that and the evolution of cuckolds is intertwined.

          I wasn’t equating women with anything, nor making any sort of generalization. If that’s what you saw in that, that’s on you.
