Who would win in a gay fight: Wiglaf or Ben Kenobi?

[notyoueither]

Quite true. Men (for the most part) are biologically engineered to have many female sexual partners in order to have as many kids as possible.

It's all about the continuation of the species.

We're also wired to pair off with a mate for lifetime.

[Ben Kenobi]

My SO loves cheesecake and HATES chocolate bars.

If I like a chocolate bar, wouldn't I enjoy chocolate cake?

That's going in my sig.

[Theben]

If this strategy were universalised, why would a man be at all confident that the children he raised were his own?

Why do you think marriage 1st came about? Men had to find some method of insuring the kids were theirs.

[Imran Siddiqui]

So how much do you pay in child support Imran?

Are you once again confusing biological imperatives with societal mores?

[Ben Kenobi]

We have a winner. Door number 1, 2, or 3?

[Ben Kenobi]

Are you once again confusing biological imperatives with societal mores?

Not at all.

Are you saying that we ought to resist our biological imperatives?

[Asher]

Not at all.

Are you saying that we ought to resist our biological imperatives?

Are you saying that it is a biological imperative to have sex with many women now?

This is contrary to your original argument. If you can even remember back to 30 mins ago.

[Imran Siddiqui]

On a large level, civilization is the controlling, and, in some instances, channeling and, in other instances, supressing our biological imperatives.

[Ben Kenobi]

On a large level, civilization is the controlling, and, in some instances, channeling and, in other instances, supressing our biological imperatives.

So in order to live in harmony with one another we have to suppress these urges?

Gotcha.

[Asher]

That's going in my sig.

Misread it as cheesecake, or you had edited it before I clicked the quote button. Still, not everyone loves chocolate cake.

I love chocolate bars, don't like chocolate cake (too heavy).

[Asher]

Answer me *******

Gotcha.

This is contrary to your original argument. If you can even remember back to 30 mins ago.

[Ben Kenobi]

Are you saying that it is a biological imperative to have sex with many women now?

My argument is that we were made to get married have sex and raise children.

We have many biological urges. I have a biological urge right now to go spear hunting and bag me some Asher.

I am making the argument that what our creator made us for is distinct from our biological urges. What is best for us in terms of our life is different then simply obeying these urges.

[Asher]

My argument is that we were made to get married have sex and raise children.

Then what are you doing positing a question under the assumption our biological urges were to **** many women?

Or are you now saying what we are "made to do" is different than what the biological imperatives are? That's some awesome stupid ****, if so.

I am making the argument that what our creator made us for is distinct from our biological urges. What is best for us in terms of our life is different then simply obeying these urges.

Oh, holy ****ing **** is this ever stupid.

You are seriously arguing -- on Apolyton -- that you not only know the intentions of the 'creator' you don't think biological urges were any part of what we were "meant to do"?

Why would a 'creator' make us with these biological urges if he doesn't want us to follow them? Sounds like a tremendous ********ing *******.

"Be fruitful and multply." You can maximize your reproductive efficiency by impregnating many women instead of just one. Adam didn't have a choice (well, actually it turned out that he did, but we're not supposed to mention that).

Seriously. Of the people that you know with big families, what percentage of them married at a young age?
