my guess is I could beat most of my ancestors in a fistfight, in expectation, say 98%+ 1. pound for pound the men are prolly tougher but also they weigh substantially less than I do owing to vastly improved childhood nutrition in the modern era 2. most of my ancestors are women https://twitter.com/JoesBarAndCult/status/1219697389373546497 …

yeah but if you could go back in time and beat up your ancestors do you have the moral imperative to do it

isn’t this stat about matrilines and patrilines? even men whose personal y-haplotype has died out still appear in your family tree
-
oh plausibly I never read what I link that said whenever more women reproduce than men do (pretty generally given historical rates of male mortality, polygyny, etc?) you'd expect much more duplication of men than women in family trees

I’ve researched my family tree back about 500 years. My ancestors were some right bastards who I wouldn’t want in a fight. I’ll pass, thank you.

I vaguely remember from somewhere that most modern populations have something like 2/3 female ancestry and 1/3 male. But all y'all are spawn of Genghis Khan, anyway.

The mark of Genghis Khan. He was prolific.
