The current cultural assumptions about love, sex, dating and marriage are not only absurd, but a danger to society and to individuals. We're taken the most successful institution known to man, tinkered with it, played with it, and toyed with it until it's barely functional any more. Marriage simply isn't such a great deal any more, which is why many people are turning away from it. Especially young men. And if you look at the stats on divorce and the way men are treated in the family courts, you can hardly blame them. This little book says that the problem lies with all the modern assumptions we've tagged on to marriage. Marriage is (or at least it was) the structure that took the complicated mess of who we are as men and women and created a legal and social framework that used our natural impulses and desires to create a stable society. Marriage is what keeps human cultures from devolving into chaos. As western society has gotten further and further from a reality-based perspective on the sexes, marriage has been on the rocks. Some say there's even a marriage strike. These 50 politically incorrect thoughts call young men to abandon the modern approach and look at love, marriage and sex from a different point of view. It's a call to be counter-cultural in a way the hippies couldn't have imagined. Please note: this is not a scholarly work. If you're looking for studies and footnotes, look elsewhere. This book isn't intended to prove anything. It simply offers a different perspective.
Sociobiology, Sex, and Science

Download and read online ebook Sociobiology, Sex, and Science write by Harmon R. Holcomb. This book was released on 1993-01-01. Sociobiology, Sex, and Science available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book examines sociobiology's validity and significance, using the sociobiological theory of the evolution of mating and parenting as an example. It identifies and discusses the array of factors that determine sociobiology's effort to become a science, providing a rare, balanced account--more critical than that of its advocates and more constructive than that of its critics. It sees a role for sociobiology in changing the way we understand the goals of evolutionary biology, the proper way to evaluate emerging sciences, and the deep structure of scientific theories. The book's premise is that evolutionary biology would not be complete if it did not explain evolutionarily significant social facts about nonhumans and humans. It proposes that explanations should be evaluated in terms of their basis in underlying theories, research programs, and conceptual frameworks.

Download and read online ebook A Brief History of the Female Body write by Dr. Deena Emera. This book was released on 2023-08-15. A Brief History of the Female Body available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. From breasts and orgasms to periods, pregnancies, and menopause—A Brief History of the Female Body is a fascinating science book explaining the mysteries of the female body through an evolutionary lens. Let's face it: The female body is an enigma. For teenagers first experiencing their periods, the monthly arrival of mood swings and cramps can be agonizing and inconvenient. With pregnancy—perhaps the most miraculous of bodily events—comes countless potential complications, including high blood pressure, diabetes, premature birth, and postpartum depression. And menopause is equally mystifying. Why do females lose their fertility over time and experience the notorious side effects—like hot flashes, weight gain, and hair loss—while males maintain their fertility forever? Evolutionary geneticist and educator Dr. Deena Emera has spent much of her career studying the evolution of female reproduction. A Brief History of the Female Body draws on her vast expertise as a biologist, her experience as a mother of four children, and her love of teaching to look far into our evolutionary past, illuminating how and, more importantly, why the female form has transformed over millions of years and its effects on women's health.

Applying the tools and methods of analytic philosophy, analytic feminism is an approach adopted in discussions of sexism, classism and racism. The Bloomsbury Companion to Analytic Feminism presents the first comprehensive reference resource to the nature, history and significance of this growing tradition and the forms of social discrimination widely covered in feminist writings. Through individual sections on metaphysics, epistemology, and value theory, a team of esteemed philosophers examine the relationship between analytic feminism and the main areas of philosophical reflection. Their engaging and original contributions explore how analytic feminists define their concepts and use logic to support their claims. Each section provides concise overviews of the main debates in feminist literature within that particular area of research, as well as introductions to each of the chapters. Together with a glossary and an annotated bibliography, this companion features an overview of the basic tools used in reading analytic philosophy. The result is an in-depth and authoritative guide to understanding analytic feminist's characteristic methods.

Download and read online ebook Cheating Monkeys and Citizen Bees write by Lee Alan Dugatkin. This book was released on 2000. Cheating Monkeys and Citizen Bees available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Here biologist Lee Dugatkin outlines four paths to cooperation shared by humans and other animals: family dynamics, reciprocal transactions (or "tit for tat"), so-called selfish teamwork, and group altruism. He draws on a wealth of examples—from babysitting among mongooses and food sharing among vampire bats to cooperation in Hutterite communities and on kibbutzim—o show not only that cooperation exists throughout the animal kingdom, but how an understanding of the natural history of altruism might foster our own best instincts toward our fellow humans.
