When was the average lifespan of a person ever 25 years? You have bad data, strategist

New Renter says

Strategist says

Biology and evolution states, IMO, if you are old enough to get pregnant, you are old enough to have sex. Even if it's an old man, because he can get you pregnant. We must, however, remember, that biology dictates we live in societies for our survival, and our society dictates that pedophilia, as defined by us is just not acceptable.

Also in the old days the average lifespan of a person was just 25 years. If you don't start having babies as a teenager we would end up extinct.

So by that definition post-menopausal women are too old and/or icky for sex.

Post menopausal won't be as attractive as a 25 year old, but neither will men in their 50's. So, I guess that evens things out.
For some reason I prefer a bit older women because girls, close to my children's age turns me off.

I hypothesized in the McDonalds thread that most Pat.net posters are childless. This thread proves it.

New Renter says

Recruiting young women for the porn industry is not the same as recruiting women as prostitutes.

Why? You don't think porn actresses are prostitutes?

The correct term is Childfree or Bratfree.

I'd gone with 30, but that's just me.

On your first quote you imply evolution dictates teenagers need to start breeding. On the second one you imply killing with a stone age mentality is not acceptable. Both were essential for our survival, based on survival of the fittest.

Why is one OK, but not the other?

Murdering your neighbors was a viable strategy in the Stone Age; it's not today.

Some instinct from the Stone Age still works in the Modern Age. Other instinct doesn't. It doesn't take a genius to figure out which is which. Nurturing children still works. Clubbing the guy next door and dragging his wife off by the hair doesn't.

Strategist says

Just because it was OK in the past does not mean it must be OK today, or in the future.

Ah, but there always has to be a reason. And culture is not a good reason to outlaw or accept a behavior. Slavery and genocide weren't "good" simply because Bronzed Age societies practiced them.

We now call it a preemptive strike. Still a viable strategy, unless BOTH SIDES agree it's not a viable strategy.

No. Neither does the law:

An 80 year old oligarch will be damned attractive to many under 30yo hotties.

Doesn't work whether you are talking about individuals in a neighborhood or nation-states with nukes. In the former case, you end up in prison. In the later case, you end up with extinction.

and the 1981 Israeli attack on Iraq's nuclear facility at Osirak as examples of the counter-proliferation self-help paradigm.[34] Regarding the Osirak attack, Roberts noted that at the time, few legal scholars argued in support of the Israeli attack but notes further that, "subsequent events demonstrated the perspicacity of the Israelis, and some scholars have re-visited that attack arguing that it was justified under anticipatory self-defense."[35] Following the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, American forces captured a number of documents detailing conversations that Sadaam Hussein had with his inner sanctum.[36] The archive of documents and recorded meetings confirm that Hussein was indeed aiming to strike at Israel.[36] In a 1982 conversation Hussein stated that, "Once Iraq walks out victorious, there will not be any Israel." Of Israel's anti-Iraqi endeavors he noted, "Technically, they [the Israelis] are right in all of their attempts to harm Iraq."[36]

Do you really want America engaging in the tit-for-tat warfare that dominates the Middle East? A pre-emptive strike that doesn't result in genocide eventually results in retaliation. A pre-emptive strike intended to result in genocide in the nuclear age will most likely lead to WWIII and the end of our species.

Given the legality of gay marriage, we have nothing to lose.

The thing is that no matter how much we attempt to prolong childhood, we still age at the exact same rate as our Stone Age ancestors.

Earlier, if possible. We have better diet; most people - including most non-Westerners - have never experienced a famine in childhood or at any time.

Famines delay the onset of puberty. In Medieval England, you could pretty much count on a famine every 3-4, and a bad one every 7 years.

The main way to delay the onset of puberty today is to engage in sports that require strict weight control and incur compression stress - like Gymnastics.

Shit, CIC must have done a lot of gymnastics. I guess naked leapfrog with goats must count.

The most disingenuous article HuffingPoo ever put out. What happened did one of the editors knock his wife up and have a change of heart skewering Parents and family units?
Take your daughter to a restaurant in San Franfreako and see how much family love you get.

Ironman says

I'm sure YOUR kids are so wonderful....

Oh wait, you don't have any

because I know how to use a condom.

Seriously, in an overpopulated world, crapping out kids is not an accomplishment. If you think you've achieved something by spawning a couple of brats and contributing less than one part in 7 trillion* to the genetic composition of the human race, you are really fucking delusional.

* Humans differ genetically less than one part in a thousand and there are 7 billion people on the planet.

Ironman says

(or a wife)

Yeah, and that's great too. You are clearly jealous of my freedom in addition to my car, my wealth, and the fact I can have consensual sex with as many women as I like, something you can't do.

Marrying some fat, ugly pig isn't an accomplishment. And being single today, for both men and women, is quite frankly awesome. I do far more socializing than any married couple. Marry couples, especially those long married, tend to spend almost all their free time at home with kids or just watching t.v. if they are empty nesters. We single people have much more active lives.

So every time you try to shame single people out of spite and jealousy, it just makes you look incredibly pathetic. I'm sure it sucked to be single back in the 1950s, but it's the 21st century. Life is made for the enjoyment of people free to do what they want when they want. There has never been a better time to be single than right now, and it's only getting better.

Ironman says

all you have is this girlfriend:

Such jealousy...

Oh, the attention whore needs more attention. OK.

Yes, Call It Crazy is a closeted homosexual. Science says so.

Are you a happy whore, now?

Sheriff's deputies arrested 34-year-old Aaron Gimbert Sunday after undercover officers say he passed out business cards to teenagers.

Was there an "R" on the cards?

We all know your fat wife is just a beard, CIC. Even your daughter admitted that last time I banged the shit out of her. I was like "who's your daddy, bitch!" And she was like "the mailman!"

Ironman says

You really need to get out of your apartment more often!

The fact that you are physically unable to admit that I live in a house demonstrates how pathologically delusional you are. I have absolutely no reason to lie about that since living in an apartment is normal and many successful people do so, yet you cannot bring yourself to accept even a simple truth.

It doesn't at all bother me that you think I live in an apartment as I don't value your opinion on any matter. However, it is really pathetic that you cannot even come to terms with such a mundane and unimportant truth. Your delusional world is so fragile, it cannot accept even a minor contradiction from reality. In this way, you truly do reflect all conservatives and the Republican Party. You're world and reality are mutually exclusive.

That's why Clint Eastwood argued with an empty chair.

That's why Bush invade Iraq over non-existent WMDs.

That's why conservatives today still call Obama a Muslim.

That's why conservatives support Donald Trump for president despite the fact that he's not even qualified to be president of the hair club for men.

And that is why you will always be poor, ignorant, and stupid.

Ah, I love the smell of hypocrisy in the morning. Smells like Call It Crazy.
