Do human males have to compete to reproduce? There is the same number of males as females in the world so does this mean the answer is no? If yes does it mean that certain males have more choice in terms of females?

>> No.9123461

If you want a good woman you need to compete. There is always a bottom of the barrel skank that will take anyone, but nobody sane wants them.

How can limp White bois even compete?

Generally males compete and females choose, from an evolutionary standpoint at least. This is because the number of offspring a male can have is limited only by how many females he can fertilise. On the other hand females are limited by pregnancy, so it makes sense for females to choose only the best males since they only get one shot at it per pregnancy and for males to compete for who gets to fertilise as many females as possible.

That's why for species which adhere to this rule, such as humans (at least throughout pre-history) you see male and female reproductive success have high and low variability, respectively.

Yes but it seems everybody reproduces who is fertile, whereas in alot of say other mammals only the 'winner' gets to reproduce. Or maybe I'm wrong - in Wolves for example the Alpha Wolf reproduces. If a Lion is defeated his cubs are killed by the new lion etc. In Humans - tyrants and dictators obviously get access to the females yet they are almost always overthrown.

So you are saying different males have different mating 'strategies' - that seems clear, but are people constrained by their genetics/race/socio-economic position etc?

>> No.9123555

Yes but is reproductive success/opportunities constrained by genetics rather than environment/money etc?

Yes, even in sexual socialism and monogamy, women ain't gonna marry down. Women fuck up, as above their weight class as possible and men will be happy with any warm yet exclusive hole.

Yep society has kind of messed up this rule a bit in humans which is why I was referring to pre-historic humans mainly. A guy can't go around impregnating every woman he can in modern society haha

>>9123547
I'm saying that males historically have wildly differing success rates but yes all those things you mentioned play a part, especially genetics since it at partially determines stuff like socio-economic status. However, as >>9123541
said society has turned humans into a monogamous species were almost nobody is left out.

In Black Communities are closer to that (Alpha/Beta relationship in Feral Wolves & Apes).
In West the situation is controlled due to "muh" Christianity.
But feminism are abolishing Monogamy.

There is no such thing as alpha or beta humans. Those terms were used to describe pack animals live wolves.

Bad test. I got -275 so I got ranked as captian. Captian is supposedly someone who got chicks in high school but then lost his way as an alpha. But that is not who I am. I had no high school gf and I was 100% autism. I was only able to score this high because I can drive a car, have had sex, I am college educated, work out, having a girlfriend, etc.

Those things don't matter as much as you think. For example the "having girlfriend" shit is -250 points. That is too much. I say this because I consider my autistic experience to be much more influential in who I am today than my comeback.

For example, I also checked being a brony. That is actually worth +250 points because brony is pure autism. In contrast girlfriend should be like -125, not -250. It is not as cool to have a girlfriend as it is autistic to collect fluttershy toys. Please fix your pic.
