I do see where you are coming from. All this talk about it's all biology, genetics, evolution and nature is one theory. But some people seem to argue that human nature is dark or at least harsh and that somehow is a good thing and will result in better survival. I don't buy that argument. Human nature also has a positive side too. Indulging in bad behavior, poor choices, and short-sidedness doesn't result in positive outcomes.
Business and interpersonal relationships are both adversarial in nature.
This means that at the very core each business owner or each partner in a relationship are ultimately looking out for their own best interest. When push comes to shove, altruism goes out the window in favor of good old fashioned survival.
Just above the dark, unpleasant truth that people are ultimately survival minded creatures lies a thin veil called society.
Society serves to direct and control our collective actions, presumably for the "greater good". This means that although the business owner obviously makes more money by paying his employees less, he knows that often it is not in his best interest to do so. He knows that he COULD run the establishment like a brutal tyrant because he is "the boss", but a smart businessman knows that you get more with honey than you do with vinegar.
In relationships it works the same way. most reasonable people understand that the sum can be greater than the individual parts, so we form bonds with others (alliances with other men to excel in business, status, to provide companionship and protection, etc.) and with women (in order to spread our seeds and ensure that our offspring survive and thrive).
This thin veil serves as a glue to hold society together and ALLOW our genes to be passed to the next generation, should we so choose.
So we have the gravitational pull of nature exerting constant pressure on us to do the things that will facilitate the survival of our species. On top of that we have society which is pushing and pulling us in various directions based upon the agendas of those who seek to implement them.
Long story short- we are motivated by both, but when all is said and done, biology wins. In the short term we are constantly swayed by societal pressures, but in the end nature will seek and find an equilibrium to complete its task of perpetuating itself. It can't be any other way, or our species will cease to exist, and from what I have seen it has so far done a pretty damn good job of thriving.
I don't know where people get the idea that modern society is following nature anyway especially in regards to male/female inter-relations. There's very little with modern society intuned with the natural order.
The simple fact that you are on this site contradicts this theory.
I don't believe women make good choices, or pick their mates on actually having the best genes. I don't think women's behavior can be justified by it all being a grand scheme of nature. If anything, nature would dictate that women shouldn't have choice and would be acquiescing to males' agenda.
That is because we are in one of those short term pendulum swings where things are out of whack between the genders, and it the blame can be placed squarely on the shoulders of SOCIETY.
Why do you think this site and the seduction community have popped up and taken root in the past ten years or so? It is a cultural BACKLASH to the damage that has been caused by feminism gone wrong.
Men are sitting around saying "Hey, wait a minute. Something doesn't seem right. I'm not getting my share of pu$$y. I need to seek answers". They know deep down that they are being cheated in the game, and they are seeking to reclaim a balance, which means getting more pu$$y, which is what? That's right.....trying to get laid is a
biological urge that controls the vast majority of what we do as humans.
