Fighting Bears

[Typist]

While working on my nature site I came across this photo of two brown bears fighting.

For millions of years, the main job of male mammals has been to fight with other males, and weed out the weak genes. And so here we are on this forum, a bunch of nerd guys, trying sincerely to do what males were designed to do.

Except that now we don't get laid if we win the fight. I'm definitely complaining to the mods about this!!

More of your pet-theory nonsense. As we are not Bears and across the Mammal there is an endless spectrum of sexual mores.

its more complex than that

Some girls like guys who are good at kicking other guys' asses

Other girls like guys who are nerdy and like to cook

Other girls are attracted to..... you get that idea.

being good at kicking ass will help you survive in some situations but not others.

Likewise for being nerdy and a good cook.

So whatever the situation, some humans will survive.

Makes me wonder about evolution....

How about a group of wolves hunting together ?
And about a group of stonemen hunting a mammuth together ?

A violent man can be a danger to the woman and her children too.
A smart man who figures things out and finds solutions to problems and is cheerful is better, I would say.

A stoneman was weaker than a bear or a mammuth but a stoneman was able to trap a big animal (himself or together with other stonemen) and to eat it.

Brute force does not necessarily win in the end.
Human species is weak as compared to lots of other mammals and it is the most successful on earth.
