As the most advanced species, humans are the most adaptable species on earth. What defines humans is not biology but our ability to learn and acquire knowledge and advance humanity based on that acquired knowledge. Biology has only provided humans the basic capability (brain capacity) to do this. In other words, any knowledge acquired doesn’t die with its host as it would in a biological construct. This is how humans evolve. Thus, humans are not sculpted by thousands of years of biologic evolution as some claim. Our existence, otherwise operating off of mere biology, would be pre-molded and shaped predetermining our fate–much as some want to do to men by social influence. These people are too stupid to realize they themselves are not following their own conceptual beliefs by forcing their socially constructed narratives on to others (religion and the assigned roles and expectations dictated by religion and tradition influenced by the same).
If biology defines us, we are a very primitive species, nowhere near human. Hence, if biology defines who you are as a man, you lack intellect and good character as a human being much as a reptile, something predetermined in any other species, being stoic and lacking any character or feelings–e.g. ‘Take it like a man’, “Be a ‘real man’, a thug and dictator. Or the effect could apply to a species of cattle biogenetically engineered and selectively bred by another species to be what that species or those of that same species’ want–what Hitler was trying to do with humans. Is this how half of humanity, that has yet to be liberated, is to be defined? Are not humans to be free and defined in their own right? A destiny becoming of that basic human make-up is in line with who we are as a species, so why would it not equally apply to who we are as men?
