    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Rolf Degen

    evolved mating preferences evolved in a hunter-gatherer setting; arguably subverting those preferences makes sense in a radically different settinghttps://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1453944158377299969 …

    In most cases, arranged marriages disregard the mating preferences of offspring. https://anthrosource.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/aman.13656 … pic.twitter.com/XUTT2mgBwd

        2/ pop culture sells them what they already want to buy ("we have such a good time / that look in your eye / tequila is fun / my fancy car [ is an indication of power and authority in the tribe ] / let's screw right now!")https://twitter.com/sol_saturn/status/1454067092215504900 …

        do young folk still operate on hunter gatherer mating instincts, or is it on whatever bullshit pop culture and internet disinfo sells them?

        Replying to @MorlockP

        there's also that many very gene-fit mating strategies (and thus also the attractive phenotypes correlated with those strategies) are destructive to society as a whole

        I can give a couple of reasons why. Pre frontal cortex isn't fully developed until the age of 25 - responsible for rational thought and long term outcome of actions. Before that, most thoughts process are done through the Amygdala - responsible for emotional processing.

        I couldn't find the link, but @Evolving_Moloch has argued that arranged marriages are prevalent with hunter-gatherers as well.

        1. Evolution didn't end with agriculture. 2. Most Hunter-Gatherer groups also practice arranged marriages.
