What's the history of pantyhose/linegre?

Are sexy outfits a modern thing or were they used by the ancients?

Do you think we would have already had another huge conventional World War by now if nukes didn't exist and the global powers weren't always threatening eachother with mutually assured destruction?

Will a real nuclear war will ever actually happen?

yes. nuclear weapons restrict the tendency towards escalation

>Will a real nuclear war will ever actually happen?

yes probably. Very unlikely to be between the big boys though (West, Russia or China) I think its more likely between middle eastern states, or india-pakistan. depends alot on who will be the next nuclear powers

in this book - Homo Agressivus, Dorian speaks a lot about women's sexual selection and shows how throughout the history of mankind women have been attracted to hard, dominant, unscrupulous men - because they have easier access to resources and they could offer protection to women and children. The author gives the example of teenage gangs, where the bad boy joins who he wants.And the utopian solution would be for women to be attracted to peaceful and intelligent men, and those mitocans to exclude them so they will not perpetuate their genes.

Thoughts?

Women's rigths were a mistake

Well this is still mostly true, it's just that what constitutes a hard, dominant and unscrupulous man changes a lot culturally.
>>
it's an /r9k/ meme, human infants and pregnant women are very physically vulnerable compared to mammals with similar birth rates, being pumped and dumped wouldn't be to a woman's evolutionary advantage

women want a strong man not a bad man

how would /his/ react if there was a real (01) city (aka Zero One)

In case you havent watched The Animatrix, Zero One is a city that was created by Artificially Intelligent machines after a dindu robot killed its master in "self defence" from being deactivated. which led to the death of the owner of the robot and his pets and even a technician that was called in. which lead to be the first robot to be charged for murder which he was dubbed "the martyr of the machine race". several demostrations on both sides of the argument happened and eventually leading to the United Nations to deactivate and destroy all artificially intelligent machines. that lead to the result of the surviving robots of the so-called global machine holocaust to run to a empty area of Saudi Arabia to create the city of 01 (Zero One)

The robot nation pumped out resources and goods to the world that made "Made In China" motto look ridiculously expensive and shitty in quality. that lead to the UN allowing a mass nuclear bombarment of Zero One (mostly protected by EMP shielding) and thus the machine city declaring war on all of Humanity (you can guess what was the outcome of that)

if i was head of the UN, i would immediately just leave them the fuck alone. just do a trade embargo and MAYBE do a Military Alliance on certain conflicts

incase you want to have a general idea of what it is without looking into the animatrix, just watch this vid on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rOdOVJCqNc

Stalinism and the USSR reunited all the territories of ancient Rus and restored the glory of the Rus people where the Russian Empire couldn't do it for centuries. If it wasn't for the USSR, all western Rus(Ruthenian in catholicuck speak) would be speaking G*rman, Czech, and Polish. Also they did not have to experience any more enslavement or serfdom by slavic catholics, G*rmans and muslims.

The USSR almost manage to create a slavic union in 1945 but this time stalinism hindered this plan by alienating Tito.

I got some news for you

1. On the outside, there are prison guards preventing you from hunting, foraging and fishing.
2. There are no walls; one is free to come and go as they please.
3. To get food the food outside, you must become a prisoner and work for it.
4. One of the jobs in the prison is to be a prison guard; another job is to be a food provider and give food to people who contribute to the maintenance of the prison.
5. a percentage of your earnings will be taken to provide for more prisoners, and it will give you more incentive to work harder, otherwise you will be replaced by a new prisoner.

If you're a prison guard, then your job is to make sure that nobody can live without working for the prison, otherwise you won't get fed.
If you're a provider, then your job is to provide food to keep people working, otherwise you won't get fed.
If you're not a prisoner, you will be, otherwise you will starve.

Civilization always has a deficit-based drive. We always want MORE civilization, or progressed civilization. We want more out of it, but it gets more out of us when it gives less. And you defenders of civilization only defend it because you think it's the only good thing; but it's the only good thing, because all else is banned by civilization.

You're more than free to walk into the woods and live off the land if civilisation is so shit. People have managed it in densely populated countries like the UK, so "someone will find me and arrest me" isn't an excuse.
>>
>>3344903
It's a very general excuse.. And yes, it is a valid excuse. A guy I know was arrested and had to pay thousands of dollars in fines because he fished out of season.

Besides that, I have family. We all have our ties to this society. Rather than make a statement that I can live on my own, which won't do anything (Which is why the Unabomber took action), people need to know that they're being imprisoned. The people that wake up from their prison realize that EVERYONE a part of the prison defends the prison unknowingly.

How much did Medieval Europeans and Middle Eastern people take baths in comparison to Romans?

In East Asia, due to strong Buddhist tradition, Koreans were noted by the Chinese to bath three times a day. (Exaggeration but you get the gist)
The Japanese likewise gathered in communal bathhouses and payed waifus to scrub their backs.

I know Pagan Europeans bathed pretty extensively as well but how much did Europeans after Christianity bath?

Pic related Medieval people eating while bathing.

Shit, I want to eat a nice dinner in a hotub, why aren't we doing this anymore? That looks comfy as fuck.
>>
Wasn't Europe full of bogs and swamps meaning if you didn't bathe indoors you'd get malaria? That's why it wasn't as popular as other areas?
>>
>>3344804

Less often than modern people, more often than popculture claims. Shirts and underwear would be changed and washed regularly and there's coroners accounts of people dying while bathing.

What do you think of people who go to historical sites just to take selfies.
I know I shouldn't care but it triggers me when people don't care about what it is about aside from maybe it being a pretty background for selfies.

If they visited the site to look at cool buildings and then take selfies it's ok. But I've never seen anyone drive for a hour just to take selfies and leave.

Well I mean, really how different is that from having someone hold your camera so they can take a picture of you at the site? Not much really, aside from the distance involved.
>>
>>3344563
What I meant is that there are people who don't care about the site itself they just use it to show off that they are going on cultural trips so to say.

Are there jobs that actually fit into this or am I fooling myself? I'm tenuous already as nothing but bad things are heard from in the cultural anthropology field but it does seem like the proper outlet.
