why did war and fighting become a male thing?
>>
>>2776074
Because men are physically stronger than women

Also because men can't give birth
>>
Because even if all but one man die defending the community, the community can have a next generation. Women are far more precious from an evolutionary point of view.
>>
>>2776077
well that's not technically true

in terms of say professional female fighters vs. professional male fighters

if groin shots were allowed, pro woman fighters would have a huge advantage against men
>>
>>2776074
I'd theorise that it's related to the biological roles of each sex.
Why do male penguins guard the eggs while the females go get the fish? In every species sex contributes to underlying duties.

Men have longer reach, more muscle mass and more stamina as well as explosive force. An UFC man vs. woman fight would end in the woman losing to KO or submission pretty fast.

It is technically true. Men produce more of the hormones that lead to muscle growth.
And even if your retarded idea about testicles being a game-changing disadvantage to men, you do know that groin protection exists right? Just throw a little curved piece of solid material on your dick and balls and voila.
>>
>>2776095
No, because it follows that cuntpunts are allowed too. Also ask yourself this: why did mass rapes and ebslavements of women happen in history? They didn't have "no groin shots" rules.

If chopping off limbs and heads and disemboweling people is allowed, then I'm fairly certain groin shots are fair game.

Reading comic books and playing video games tends to distort how weak women actually are. Don't have a problem with having a woman kick ass in a work of fiction as long as they don't get too SJW preachy about it, but it is not realistic at all.

I am a skinny dude, like 164-165 at 6'0 with like 15% bodyfat at most. I was at the gym the other day and a woman, who was a personal trainer at the gym, was doing some exercise with like a 100 pound bar being held as if she were dong squats.

She asked me for help in putting in down gently.
>>
>>2776115
Well "the world" never became a patriarchy, there's been matriarchal societies. But yes, and because women tend to take care of their children. Even if they had equal strength, every time a woman is pregnant that's 9 months when she's not doing physical labor.

two tribes goes to war

the first sends only men, the other sends mixed war party

the one tribe sending men have the upper hand since male bodies are in general 30 % stronger

the captured woman are used as baby makers for the victorious tribe and the men as slaves

the defeated tribe now have fewer woman in child bearing age, thus fewer children to come and the next war is even more one sided

why is this so hard to grasp ?

But if there existed a group of extremely strong women nearby who kidnapped men for use as sex slaves, though, I'd probably fear them, too.

I've read some articles about women in combat roles. In general, they simply perforn worse in most tasks compared to men. But all of these results can be explained with
>le gender stereotyping guise :DDD
So a conclusive result has yet to be reached. But I'm fairly certain future research will prove the assertion that women perform worse in combat roles. Don't forget, guns and backpacks are fucking heavy, and women compare even worse to men in terms of upper body strength.

Jesus Christ this thread.

Men are not the warrior sex because they are stronger. They are stronger because they are the warrior sex.

The whole reason males are fighters is because females are the reproductive choke point.

If women fight regularly they have a higher risk of injury or death: bad for tribe.

10 women, 1 man = surviving people

1 woman, 10 men = dead tribe

Evolution favored fighting males/nurturing females because of this. A woman who can dedicate her energy to birthing and raising children will have healthier children that will go on to have healthy children.

Males who were strong and big successfully protected their tribe and secured their genetic lineage.

In essence, males are the warriors because they are expendable compared to the females.
>>
>>2776204
>In essence, males are the warriors because they are expendable compared to females

This is also true and a contributing factor, but the strength gap is inherent. Few men train to be warriors of any kind these days but the average man vs the average woman in most physical activities is no contest, including and especially fighting.
>>
>>2776204
>10 women, 1 man = surviving people

Inbred people
>>
>>2776204
It is worth noting that there needed to be a decent balance of genders. Yes women are far more reproductively valuable, but if there aren't enough men around then they are up for grabs
>>
>>2776227
Yes, precisely because of the evolutionary advantage of the social arrangement. Men became stronger and larger than females BECAUSE it allowed them to be more successful fighters. They didn't become fighters by simple merit of being stronger.

That was my point.

This is one theory behind the multiple different aleals that control hair and eye color in northern European peoples. The idea is that after the last major ice age the male population was very small creating severe competition. Those traits became more common because the striking features garnered male attention.

No shit. But their nether region has just as many (probably a lot more actually) sensitive nerve endings than male genitelia that cause debilitating pain when subject to impact.

should a woman boxer still be allowed to compete with manny pacquiao if both parties agree
>>
>>2776116

Lol no. The gap between men and women in physical sports is massive. Anecdotal I know but we used to scrimmage against the UC Santa Cruz women's basketball team (one of the best in the country at the time) in hs (men's varsity) and absolutely destroy them, and we weren't even that good compared to the other hs teams we played in tournaments.
>>
>>2777174

Pacquiao would never take that fight, but it doesn't matter because any female would get btfu against any of the top boxers. It's hard to explain just how hard and fast those guys hit unless you've seen it in person.

Female sports have a place and should be encouraged, but it's delusional to think a female will ever seriously compete with men especially in a contact sport like boxing or mma at the top level.

>is physical strength needed in the military special forces

>>2776083
Between men/women, the ones with more capable army would win.

Lets say there are 100,000 female only army with 10 years of training and 100,000 male only army with 10 years of training.

Who would win? Men. Easily. In both long term and short term. In short term simply because men would out maneuver the female army.

Build infrastructure to lay field operations in time for war, exert more physical force in logistics of carrying resources/etc.

In long term, if an ancient country lost 100,000 females, they'd be completely devastated. If they lost 100,000 men, their females will pop those out and be ready for war within another generation.

In modern terms, you just have to look at engineering contribution between the two sexes. Men easily out contribute women in technological advances. Even with equality today, men contribute the most to the advancement of society interms of technological powers.

And finally sociological reasons why women are unfit for combat roles. Take these anecdotes for what you will but every male service member has them. Women ruin the morale of a platoon and are nothing but a hindrance to combat readiness and effectiveness. Incorporating women into the military is pure foolishness and can have no beneficial results come war time.

Teenagers grow up in different ways
Boys can eat alot and stay normal build because their body transforms it into muscle, girls build fat early on preparing their bodies to give birth because the body relocates its resources towards the child, its storage.
Malnourishment during pregnancy leads to a lot of complex issues because the energy that goes to the baby goes first to the vital organs to keep the child alive, not development of the brain etc.
In natures world there are rules, and those rules are primitive, a womans body during pregnancy alocates those resources to the childs body because it thinks the child needs to run from prey, needs to be alert, it doesn't care wether the child is smart or not.
it lives in a primal state where it assumes humans still need to run away from predators, sabretooth tigers, etc.
hence children suffering from even slight malnourishment during pregnancy have severe learning defects because the body dictates that hey, it's better to be stupid and alive able to escape predators then to be born weak unable to escape said predators.
While men alocate all the resources towards muscle and the brain, it doesn't store anything.

But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before the company, and she pleased Herod so much that he promised on oath to grant her whatever she might ask. Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter.” The king was grieved, yet out of regard for his oaths and for the guests, he commanded it to be given; he sent and had John beheaded in the prison. The head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, who brought it to her mother.
