Well, it lets me post to Twitter, or Reddit but no option for posting here so here is my brag tag..

I just completed "The Tyranny of the Rocket Equation" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2019 https://adventofcode.com/2019/day/1 #AdventOfCode

@design_RG click events, I think it has been going on since 2015

#toyprogrammingchallenge

Okay, this isn't me, but consider doing this this month:

It is the Advent of Code for 2019
Unfortunately the fediverse is not a supporter or OAth so you will have to use Twitter, Google, Github to login.

@design_RG thanks. Yeah, I keep Read ng all the articles I can find. I do enjoy the idea of the Fediverse. And I would like to see how well things work out with self moderation and such. But it seems that Free speech and Safe spaces are at odds with one another.

But some of the Free speech enthusiasts look to be trying to prove something? Like challenging someone to take it away. I see it like the 2A people that insist on slinging their ar15 to go into the local grocery store. They are making a statement I just don't quite know what it is. Just because you have the right to call me a disrespectful racial or cultural or scatalogical term doesn't mean you should, is the same way that just because you probably shouldn't doesn't mean somone should take your right to do so.

Sex, Time, and Power: How Women's Sexuality Shaped Human Evolution

@freemo this was fun. I am not sure we have any further to go on it. Civilization has taken us so far out of what natural progressions would have done it is hard to tell some things. Probably why the popularity of the distopian realities has the popularity that it does.

Anyway, I would like to get your opinion on a book if I can find an esbn. That would be indirectly related

@freemo I don't thing I am stretching much. I do believe rape as a means of procreation may happen. Afterall rape is a human concept. Other animals just call it procreation. If you are going back to solitary times it might even make sense with inter mixing of Neanderthal s. But humans have been culturally social out of necessity. Both marriarchially and patriarchially. However, with no estrus signal, rape is a highly inefficient method of procreation. Woman is only receptive to impregnation 3 days out of the cycle.

I just don't actually see genetically disadvantaged large breasted women. What I do see are high BMI and poorly nutritionned large breasted disadvantaged women.

If genetics predispose a woman to carry fat I her breast, that is for the advantage of maintaining mammary health and function. If she is maintaining so much fat that she cannot evade a male of her own species then she could no longer evade a predictor such as a cat or wolf. If she is carrying that much fat it is diet rather than genetics.

@freemo sagging would be obviated by looking at cultures that don't wear them. Look at the Peruvian and other 'cultural nudity' images. The nubile girls will have protruding breasts then as they age they lay flatter and hang. Bras are intended to make post nubile women look like nubile pubescent girls. We do and have done all sorts of unnatural things to female bodies, from foot binding, to corsetting, to fgm .. probably because there is no signaling of estrus and women can reduce congress even when they are in estrus. That itself probably due to the long gestation and increased size of the human brain leading to the likelihood of death during pregnancy.

@freemo I am saying maintaining any amount of fat regardless of where it is carried. In caveman times one would do well to carry fat at all. If women were carrying enough fat to have their breasts as an impediment, they would be is such a nutritional advantage that fighting off unwanted advances would be with the upper hand. They would be more likely to be weak due to iron deficiency than caloric issues but that is a whole different book

@freemo the argument is not that lifting the breasts with a bra helps cog but that the weight of the hanging breast would displace the fat cells or cause elongation of the surrounding tissue thus lowering the cog

@freemo no higher cost than fat anywhere else but a high cost to maintain none the less. Again I thing the larger sizes such that back involvement is effected has more to do with diet and society

@crackurbones why? Whales belch and fart more CO2 than cows. What does a whale do to store CO2? Green things turn CO2 into o2 and sugar. But I don't think whales do much sequestration. But they do make more ambergris so bring it on!

@freemo but the fat itself has to be maintained at the rate of 3500 calories per pound.

@freemo I disagree with you on the bra thing. I also don't feel the breast size is necessarily all genetic, but more likely due to what we have done to our food supply and eating practices. I would say that in most cases I have seen women with large breasts that are carrying fat other places as well. Or they are surgically augmented.

@freemo I would be hard-pressed to believe this due to the nutritional requirement to maintain such breast size. In addition it gives the appearance of larger size giving a defensive purpose nor in similar to hackles on a dog. The presence of protrusive breasts and lack thereof do also indicate proper hormonal levels as evidenced by gynomastia in men, and precocious puberty in young girls. Perhaps the hormones we inject into our dairy and need may have more to do with large breasts sizes, not to mention general obesiry. Women do carry their fat deposits in different places than men so weight gain would certainly increase breast size.. not necessarily genetic other than the disposition of fat cells in such area likely to protect such glandular tissue as mammaries. Far itself being a storage of energy and nutrition can also aid in the production of milk even when lacking caloric intake.

@freemo one might argue that large breasts to the result of back problem may have more to do with artificially supporting them, as gravity would change their shape more quickly over time otherwise. Look at some of the other non-braziered cultures' images 'cultural nudity'. Other aspect of the back problems do come from social shame of the early bloomer modifying posture in youth to minimize the appearance.

@freemo to have color change serves no other purpose than to signal receptiveness that I can tell

@freemo they have other things like colors and sizes and ability to do feats such as sound creating by pecking, or croaking and so forth.

@freemo and what purpose do they serve on males?
