Its just how I look at it, I dont necessarily subscribe to the Buddhist notion of karma. -

Imo karma is not about good or evil, karma is what you get when you put something into a system without being conscious of what it could lead to. Simplest example is being a warlord who rapes and murders families, dont be surprised if those close to those families come back and hang you when/if you lose your power. So karma is not some ethereal thing, its just cause and effect. Another example is destroying the environment, if you piss in the river dont be surprised if you get piss in your faucet. -

According to Gabor Mate hardcore addicts have a deficiency in their neurotransmitters from sometimes severe adverse childhood experience, for example as a normal person your dopamine is at 100 but a heroin addict might be naturally at 90 so when he does heroin for the first he goes up to 110 and for the first time he feels "normal" and thats why its harder for some people to quit drugs while others its not. If youre "naturally" depressed you will need to self-medicate yourself everyday, some do it with alcohol and weed and some with heroine and cocaine. Some dont need it at all. Now imagine how hard it is to quit addiction if you are constantly walking around feeling not normal with a black empty hole in your soul. Of course they are gonna want to medicate themselves. Btw, that number 100 is not dopamine units, its just a number I made up as an example.

Sometimes it is, sometimes its not. A bull is clearly a male because you can tell by the horns, but a cat you literally have to lift its tail to see, im not joking. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wikihow.com/Determine-the-Sex-of-a-Cat%3famp=1 Its not as simple as you say, what about a fly? Can you see a fly and instantly tell its sex, of course not, that would be silly. To be honest, this debate has pivoted in a pointless direction talking about animals which doesnt interest me, this debate doesnt seem good faith, I lost interest in it 2 hours ago, so Im out. If social construction triggers you then this conversation will go nowhere, there is tons for you to read about that, I didnt make it up, you go read.

This is so good.

Its actually really hard for us as humans to tell a female animal from a male on unless they are different colors because they dont have as many differentiating attributes. Unless you can see a cats balls its pretty obvious both sexes behave in the same manner, now dont get me wrong, they do have different behaviours when it comes to mating and females nurturing kittens etc, but in general they act 95% the same. Its not like one cat is wearing jeans and going to the gym and one is putting on makeup, thats a human thing WE invented. If youre a cat expert you can probably tell something but its really subtle then.

Feminine is not about the body, its how a woman acts, her preferences, etc. Of course her body is not a construct (atleast that I know of). We were talking about make-up in this thread, make-up is generally considered feminine. "Femininity (also called womanliness or girlishness) is a set of attributes, behaviors, and roles generally associated with women and girls. Although femininity is socially constructed,[1]research indicates that some behaviors considered feminine are biologically influenced. To what extent femininity is biologically or socially influenced is subject to debate. It is distinct from the definition of the biological female sex, as both males and females can exhibit feminine traits." From Wikipedia

No, Im not saying she IS a dog lmao. I was posting an example of what happens when there is no culture around to create you as a human being, what you call "feminine" is most likely constructed, how much I dont know. Do you think this child would know what to choose if you gave it a doll or truck? She would just throw it away and growl at you. Its fascinating to me that even a simple thing as walking upright or putting on clothes has to be taught, its not obvious for a child. Nurture is probably 70% imo.
