By that metric, one should praise Sulla for dying from getting his ass rammed by a trap rather than his (debatable I will say as a gud Marian boi myself) contributions to the Roman State.

All kidding aside tho, being a whore is nothing to be praised, especially when they're enjoying that lifestyle thanks to the money of others.

Slarvainian wrote:Gender not being a dichotomy of man and women can be seen throughout the entirety of civilized history. The ancient Babylonians had a religious role in which the people were not viewed as man or women. I'll quickly respond to the counterpoint that they were probably still biologically man or woman. Our scientific constructions when it comes to biology have changed over the centuries so those aren't universal or concrete. Maybe generally so but there are multiple levels in which gender operates.

I’m pretty sure people still have X and Y chromosomes.
It’s either XX or XY, anything else results in genetic disorders like infertility and sometimes just straight up death.

And just because something is believed in by ancient people doesn’t mean it’s correct.
People used to believe the Earth was the center of the universe for example.


Ya but no one can detect chromosomes without the use of modern scientific equipment. Gender for us is based off of the five senses in everyday life.
It does mean that gender variation is a natural aspect of human behaviour.

Your logic here is:
Person on internet has had sex with friends -a fraternity at my school I heard had a STD outbreak - STDs are only spread through sex* - they must have lots of sex with connected people - person online has had sex with their work friends - they must work at a fraternity... :rofl:

*STDs can be spread through many other ways.

I have a question for you: what significance do you assign to blood-relation in determining family (in a socio-cultural and psychological sense, since the strictly biological answer is obvious)?

Good qwestion blood and meratal relatives as well as very close friends are the base of any health family unit.

You have 3 layers.
1. Parents, grandparents and siblings.
2.1st cousins, and there parents.
And finally close friends.

Why, then, pray tell, does the term "father figure" remain so well known and consistent in society?

But those differ for everybody. On a case by case basis, any given person may have been abandoned by or have abandoned their blood related family - even distant relatives - and therefore their close friends are their only family.

Because there is a problem of people getting married for the wrong reason. Be it an unplanned pregnancy, peer pressure etc. But the statistics show that children who grew up without a father are more likely to have mental and emotional problems later in life.
