To be honest though, it's perfectly adapted to get females to have sexual interest with you. So, you make perfect sense as a jerk, trying to get women to like you, evolutionary and all.
You're not in a hole, where for example objectivists who don't want to kill or harm anything are in a hole, you just deny harm itself. To an objectivist, merely looking at a pebble on the ground reminds them traumatically of the zero sum nature of reality, every existent for them is a trauma, but you don't even exist!! LOL!! Oh, how hard that is for you!! You twist the easiest psychology to have into the hardest one... nobody feels sorry for you, because you don't exist!! Grow up!
Since I am now more convinced than ever that you just make this stuff up as you go along, humor me: Why?
Seriously, though, I am never really able to connect the dots between my posts and yours. It's like we are in parallel universes or somethings.
Anyway, when you are ready to bring a value judgment of your own down to earth...to intertwine the experiential and the philosophical components...note a context embedded in conflicting goods and the discussion can continue.
Now, I realize of course that you are convinced that you have already done this. But we are so far out of sync regarding what it means
to do this, I doubt we will ever close the gap.
So, all kidding aside,
are you just making this stuff up as you go along?
Though, sure, I certainly acknowledge that you and others here might want me to answer the same question.
No, I'm not. But I do repeat myself a lot.
As for the females, that's your obsession not mine. What's wrong, don't they like you?
