This should be clarified as feminine -vs- masculine. Anima -vs- animus. And the answer is: yes, IMHO. All of the female/feminine bosses I've had have been twice as awesome as the male/masculine ones. Secret to world peace: power equality for women. There should be one feminine cop for every masculine cop. Etc, etc... duh.
Amen: drugs and sex, etc., are problems that folks can work out among themselves. They don't need a cop and a judge. Drug abuse is purely a medical issue. And sex, well, I'm not entirely sure what's wrong with that. But those issues can be dealt with at home or church or whatever other way you want to oppress/rehab yourself.
Everything you see around you is the work of genetics acting upon the environment. The human species isn't an assortment of people, it's an assortment of genes....and there most certainly ARE "poverty" genes. I see them walking around every day, all day long.
I must admit, this sounds creepy in a "holocaust"/"genetic cleansing" kind of way.
I think I see the point. It just conflicts with "free will" in my head, somehow. I don't feel like my decisions are made just because my genes gave me a brain to make them with. Although, when I try to think about this, I don't feel like my genes gave me an adequate brain to think with. Also, that was quite a tasteless joke, but posting as an AC cancelled out the "you got guts" part of the dare.
Except TFA says a return to nature would NOT entail being primal dicks to one another but perhaps a instead being a herd of hippies, more or less. Bonobos monkeys. Us being dicks is anything but primal. It's indicative of mental, emotional, societal, or even physical disease that is incongruent and unsustainable given our "nature"...at least, that's how I very liberally interpreted this.
Time and survival have turned me from a nice kid to a cynical punk
RTF[Summary]: They're talking "nature". You're talking "nurture". Like maybe one's crappy church or crappy parents or crappy poverty makes one violent.
Better yet - authors should abandon publishers and let them die now that authors and artists of all kinds can reach their fans directly and instantly via the interwebs. Welcome to Changetown - population: all of us.
Once, while sitting in line at a stop light just turned green, I noticed my young neighbor hadn't noticed the light change and was also texting. I tooted my horn and did a "wake-up/look ahead" gesture while mouthing "put the phone down". I'm not sure what she thought I said, but she chased me for miles and tried to run me off the road all while trying to take pictures of me and my car with her phone. You can't tell these kids anything. I would say let darwinism flesh these lunatics out if they didn't also endanger everyone on the road around them.

Can't fund it all. The rest of the cash went to oil subsidies.
I thought we didn't want sharia law in this country. I is confused.
Your home is a big office to heat/cool. Make sure you calculate that.
Who's angry that Microsoft is inhibiting it's own growth? Who cares. Funny to watch it happen, though.
Can't wait till the Anon script-kiddies do an SQL-injection on THAT gov database and they post all our DNA's to the twitters. Crap.
No free will?

Not when they're extinct.
My friend, you are governed by fear and paranoia.

Luckily, polar bears will go extinct due to global warming. /sarc
We've evolved fences and guns for those.
Do they kill 6 million Jews?

I do think it's kind of strange that the only real predator we have these days is our own species.

So when folks knock on my door, my living room lights turn off?

Cool! Tell me when you find the poverty gene! (Insert joke about skin color gene and poverty here - I ain't got the guts.)

Will pickpockets switch to NFC, too? If so, I ain't falling for this one, Apple! I may have purchased your $500 piece of glass but not this time!!!!
