Reading articles on sexual selection has made me suicidal. I went from being a child who had those magic ideas about love, to that obvious loss of innocence during the first couple of relationships, but the scientific studies done on this literally make me think we are not above other mammals in any way shape or form when it comes to sexual selection.

I'm someone that always tries to figure out how magic tricks work, or looks up the explanations, but in this case I think I made a mistake. How does one deal with the depression brought about my too much scientific inquiry?

when you look under the hood and find things that lower your ability to be happy, you fix it by ignoring those things

we're not above them. love is, in my understanding, a behaviour evolved in order to optimise the chances of success for the next generation. in short, love exists to have children and raise them properly. it's not incompatible with a romantic view of it. the ultimate expression of love is to bring a new life, the combination of both, into fruition through years of dedication and work.

Of course we're not above other animals. This is denied by feminists in order to push the myth of "gender equality". The only thing that separates us from other animals is our greater reasoning ability.
