Hello /lit/

I was wondering if you could make any suggestion to me as to books outlining the benefits of having a traditional family (man goes and works, woman raises the children and keeps the house). It is something I believe in and want to read further into it. Thank you.

>> No.3743132

Why can't the woman go to work and the man stay at home?

>> No.3743145

Of Human Bondage is a story where it says that the traditional path is better than anything else. The main character goes off to be an artist, tries to have affairs with several women and then settles down into a pleasant relationship with a woman who would make a good mother.

What's sad about it all is that it is written by a man who was homosexual. Imagine he wanted a traditional life but society and that point wouldn't allow it.

>> No.3743153

>>3743132
that wasn't the question

and also.

Women have gone through an evolutionary process over the course of hundreds of thousands of years in order to become as good as raising children as they possibly can. They have evolved mammary glands to feed them, wide hips to birth them, and the mentality to look after them (eg, lots of women cooing over a baby, they've been conditioned to react that way in order to take care of babies instinctively)

Men, evolved for hunting, they evolved to adapt according to their environment, to overcome puzzles, and to effectively track pray (all valuable skills in the modern day workplace)

To make it clear. I'm not saying that this is the way it should be for everyone. It's up to the couple as to what they decide to do within their family. Freedom of Choice is also something I have a strong belief in. I, however, think that the traditional family role is the best basis to help raise your kids and have an efficient way of life.

This is 19th century anthropology, for the most part. It's not wrong to talk about women's place within family, but a strict definition based on what "makes sense" for gender roles is unscientific.

Let me preface this by saying I strongly believe all humans to be equal in rights, but to say our genes have not been selected on differently is erroneous and shows a lack of understanding of natural selection.

PEER REVIEWED STUDIES INCOMING

Africans have brains that are between 9%-20% smaller than Caucasoid/Mongoloid brains (see sources). And while there is certainly a correlation between brain size and intelligence in relation to body size as indicated by this study:


http://soozzone.com/PDFs/ED690DesCorr_SConnell.pdf

scientists continue to argue to what extent brain size and intelligence are related. In other words, there is a correlation, and that correlation has been determined to be significant, but some argue about how significant it is.

What we know today is that the hominid brain tripled in size over the last 3 million years from Australopithecus to Homo erectus to modern humans, so obviously brain size has something to do with our development as a species. Growing a larger brain requires more resources (in the form of calories, food intake), and our understanding of natural selection tells us that the body is designed to run as efficiently as possible. The larger brain would have been developed in an era of food scarcity, so it is hardly an accident or coincidence that hominids developed larger brains; it had to be selected for. Having a larger brain gave earlier hominids a distinct advantage and therefore, those individuals with the larger brain (and the advantage that larger brain gives) passed those genes down to their offspring, while our smaller-brained ancestors didn't make the cut.

Kuhn was reasonable most of the time but decided to start bullshitting about how old science was suddenly not living in the same world as new science and that it was a fundamental mistake to consider more refined and accurate methods to be better.

Feyerabend meanwhile was a relativist prick who outright states he believes "anything goes" solely arguing that it's true cause all methods have their limitations. He's only ever brought up because he did his best to legitimize pseudo-science.

I'd say the best fictional treatment I've seen of this idea has got to be "greenwillow" by B.J. Chute. She tells a great and fun light fantasy love story about a boy who want s to marry a nice orphan girl, who also wants to marry him, but he is afraid that his family "curse" to wander off and leave your wife to raise the children alone, will strike him, and he can't stand the thought of deserting her in that way. He has had to take care of his family farm, including his grandmother and mother, both of whom were deserted by their husbands, and several younger siblings. He makes the farm into a going concern and educates the next oldest to take care of it when he leaves, as he feels he inevitably must when his "call" comes. Involved in all this is a possibly magical minister at the local church, an old miser who was jilted by the grandmother, a lot of cats that cause theological disputes, and the devil himself. I's an amazingly good book on families and relationships and you couldn't ask for more traditional virtues. I'm surprised there was never a movie.

That's just basic logic.
Also:
Early anthropologists and psychometricians found correlations, but modern studies began with Van Valen 1974, which suggested a correlation of 0.3. Jensen & Johnson's 1994 "Race and sex differences in head size and IQ" wrote of the successive literature that

"In all of the 25 independent studies we have found in the literature, nonzero positive correlations between head measurements and intelligence measurements have been found, all but five with correlations significant beyond the .05 confidence level. The average correlation between various external measures of head size and IQ is close to + .15. But external head size is a rather weak proxy for brain size. Two recent studies have measured brain size per se by means of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and found correlations with IQ in the .30 to .40 range (Andreasen et al., 1993; Willerman, Schultz, Rutledge, & Bigler, 1991)."

Nguyen & McDaniel's 2000 meta-analysis[3] found similarly, as did McDaniel's 2005 "Big-brained people are smarter: A meta-analysis of the relationship between in vivo brain volume and intelligence":

"...based on 37 samples across 1530 people, the population correlation was estimated at 0.33...For external head measures, Vernon et al. (2000) reported the population correlation between head size and intelligence to be 0.19. Nguyen and McDaniel (2000) reported population correlations from 0.17 to 0.26 for three different sub-categories of external head size measures. Studies assessing the correlation between in vivo brain volume and intelligence are more rare. Vernon et al. (2000) reported data on 15 such correlations and obtained a population correlation of 0.33. Nguyen and McDaniel (2000) reported the same population correlation based on 14 correlations. Gignac, Vernon, and Wickett (2003) reported data published in 2000 or earlier with a mean correlation of 0.37."

In 1959, AAMD set the IQ threshold for mental retardation at < 85. The civil rights movement of the next decade forced psychologists to rethink this boundary, because half of the African American population fell below it. In 1973, responding to this concern, AAMD changed the threshold for retardation from IQ < 85 to IQ < 70. The boundary moved south by one standard deviation! The proportion of blacks below the threshold instantly dropped from about 50 percent to 12 percent. Subsequent refinements made it still more difficult to meet the criteria for retardation.

You basically agreed with him and didn't even realize it. This is the whole point of the post, he's saying that blacks have a smaller capacity for intelligence than whites and that's shown by the data. That doesn't mean that a black cannot be as smart as a white, but that the white person has a genetic advantage when it comes to this physiological trait.

Of course it does. All standardized testing shows it. The employment numbers reflect it. The crime rate reflects it. There is no denying it.
