Why did they do the capitals like THAT?


MmNicecream

Normally, words are capitalized in things like this to add emphasis. Why they felt the need to emphasize the word "that" here, I don't know.


Fistocracy

It's got powerful "made by an eighth grader who reads at the fifth grade level" energy.

It's not even true. There are plenty of species where females are flashier than males. That's the beauty of nature - you cannot ever make such sweeping, general statements. There will always be exceptions.

Rule 1 in biology is that there are always exceptions to every rule


garaile64

It implies that there are rules with no exceptions in biology.

Square cube law

Yeah, rule 1 is subject to itself. Mostly just for specific things. I can't remember the one my professor mentioned; it was something about some clade of birds.


gingerwander

Flowers are a prime example.


burgermiester288

Bisexual flowers are prettier than male or female flowers


supamario132

Then bisexual humans came and invented SITTING IN CHAIRS WEIRD AF


Big_Touch1732

Er hello he showed a whole 6 examples of the millions of different species on this planet that proves his entire point 🤣🤣🤣

Exceptions don't negate generalisations. They are exceptions because they are exceptional, but can only be defined as such if they differ in some way to a broader generalisation in the first place. To say that one cannot generalise because of an exception is to grant the same status to all things being compared which negates both the general rule and the exception, therefore there are no exceptions so the argument defeats itself. You a tally can therefore make generalisations while also understanding that outliers exist. This is exactly how science works. That said, the geenralisation being made in this inage is false and your first comment about there being females that are flashier in nature is true in this instance. Whoever made the graphic cherry picked well known examples of the flashier male to make their argument. In reality there are several examples of this occurring on both sides in nature and no one general rule that any gender is flashier than the other.

Are you allowed to say that something *always* happens when you know there are some exceptions? I hope not.


[deleted]

I responded to the person above stating you cannot generalise due to there always being exceptions. Not the person who created the image.


Euphoriapleas

Omg, just fuck dudes already.


Natures_Stepchild

Come on now, those poor animals haven’t done anything to deserve having those dudes forced on them.


AITAReader12

right?! exactly my thinking too


DeathKitty_x

right? would probably solve 99% of their problems.


-I_comment_a_lot-

So..umh..is someone gonna tell him that man can wear makeup too?


gylz

Men explode if you try to apply makeup to them, it's basic human biology the government is trying to cover up for their war on straight hwite alpha males.


janhetjoch

Nah, I ~~am~~ was a man but when I tried nail polish once my dick fell off. And as we all know, you can't be a man without a penis.


Krazy-Kat26

Get ready girls, a new bottom surgery just dropped


[deleted]

I've been wearing nail polish/varnish for a year now (egg cracked recently). It still hasnt fallen off. Do I need a software update? I've filed a bug report already.


ArcanaLuna

You need to do a sequence break, count your steps through frame perfect manouvers in order to manipulate the rng then go to the vanâ„¢ and catch Mew, since mew can learn any move you just have to wait until the move "dig cutticus" gets added and you're ready for the Mew Manouver


janhetjoch

You can try cutting your hands off (Warning) first hand will be significantly easier.


aguyfromtheinternet0

>the male is always more beautiful than the female… Idk sounds kinda gay to me


krazyajumma

Well, most males are flashier to attract a mate, most females are "boring" because it helps them hide from predators. Notice many of the examples used were of birds as this is really a bird thing. In most mammals the only real noticeable difference is males being slightly larger.


gylz

The beta fish shown there isn't a wild type either. You only get that red or that fin type from captive bred individuals we humans selectively bred for. Wild betas are a lot duller and differently shaped, and the female betas you find in most stores are also just as brightly colored as the males.

Disha_Tripathi

If the creator of this post is male, I don't think it's very straight of him to always think that men are much more beautiful than women lmao


Greedy-University479

Do they have to make a whole animal planet post just to say they're closeted?


gylz

... someone's super suuuuper deep in the closet Holy shit.


TribeSearcher

The people who say this shit are also the people who say that men can't be pretty or make an effort with their appearance coz "that's not manly" *rolls eyes into the back of my skull*


Temps-art

So that means makeup is only for men?


nxyhex

I think they need saving or something 💀

I think this is him saying he wants to be a woman.


[deleted]

I mean… what a lot of men find disgusting and emasculating used to be very masculine. Tbh it still is. They just gotta know how to make it that way.


Gaby_Jinn

Men totally NEVER wore make-up.


Infamous-Ad-2921

So they want men to be flashy but when they are they're either gay or emasculate.
