Females shape the future by selection, not men

 

Here you see the sexual dimorphism of the jungle and there seems to be a majority pattern that appears everywhere which might indicate the human society too.

 We often look at the animal kingdom and see a clear division. Why does the male Lion sport a massive, dark mane that makes him a target for predators? Why does the male Peacock drag around a heavy, iridescent train that serves no functional purpose in flight? The answer lies in the "Reproductive Rights" held by the females.

In biology, this is the Parental Investment Theory. Because the cost of reproduction is higher for the female, she is the primary selector. Supply vs demand. A human female can mother a child once every 9 months, where as a male has enough sperm to impregnante all the women on the planet in his lifetime. Over thousands of years, if female lions prioritize the biggest, most "attractive" mane (a signal of high testosterone and health), the lineage of the "drab" or smaller male ends. The result is the striking Sexual Dimorphism we see today, where the male keeps getting stronger and more attractive over generations.

In humans, this logic has historically played out in terms of physical strength and resource provision. Because women are at their most vulnerable during and after pregnancy, selection leaned toward males who were bigger, faster, and stronger. This is why human males possess significantly higher muscle mass and bone density to be able to provide & protect the female & her offsprings during & after her pregnancy. A rocket is propelled by many parts and it keeps dropping or discarding the parts that it doesnt need anymore after it reaches a certain height and if it doesnt then the same parts which elevated it to a certain level will become it's burden. The same way the evolutionary biological algorithm of choosing mates based on physical strenght remains intact, the resource a male can provide became more prominent since the society itself got safer every generation. A man with a gun is now more competant to protect than someone with just muscles. Society moved on to a more law & order based system where the system (governemnts) now has more power than any individual and thus can provide more protection to females than any individual male can. So, now wealth (resources) became the primary priority, just above strenght while selecting a male for reproduction. What if a female has her own wealth and she is not worried about a man's ability to physically protect her or she lives in a safe society? then other qualities like societal status, intelligence, artistic capabilities become the primary priority, just above strenght and wealth. 
It seems we can create or plan for the kind of society that we want by creating current society or societal conditions which will put certain traits on top of the priority list for females over others.

Directed Evolution

If you look at the archives of ancient civilizations—the Hindus, Buddhists, and Jains, you find a recurring theme: the Scholar-King Symbiosis. In many Indic texts, kings considered it a supreme honor to offer their daughters to "poor" scholars or priests. They weren't selecting for wealth or brute force; they were selecting for Vidya (Knowledge) and Vinaya (Discipline). The ruling and wealthy class gave their daughter's hand in marriage to pursuer of knowledge who neither commanded strenght or wealth.

We see a modern parallel in the Jewish community. For centuries, a cultural tradition prioritized marrying daughters to the most brilliant scholarly minds in the Yeshiva. By decoupling "desirability" from material wealth and attaching it to intellectual merit, you create a selective pressure for high-IQ traits and analytical reasoning. You will find many jewish men studying to become rabbi/priest and their wives are educated, working and contributing to the family. They are the only educated, empowered women with a fertility rate above the replacement level of 2.1. The results aren't just myths; they are in the data. A community that makes up 0.2% of the world population has produced over 20% of Nobel Prize winners. This is Directed Evolution in action.

The Danger of the "Wealth Filter"

My hypothesis: The future of the human race is whatever the current generation of women is conditioned to prioritize.

If a society conditions its women to prioritize wealth; which is finite and a zero sum game of predation, we create a "Status Competition" that inevitably leads to violence. When males must fight over limited resources to prove their "fitness," the society becomes more volatile and, ironically, less safe for the very women and children making the selection.

Conversely, societies that prioritize the "Scholar", "Artist" or the "Intelligence", those who create non-limited resources like knowledge and beauty, produce "Golden Ages". The monuments we admire today, from the Pyramids to the Taj Mahal, are the physical "secondary sexual characteristics" of a society that valued the mind over the fist.

If we say women are responsible for a productive society then it is considered simping for women, if we say women are responsible for a destructive society then it is considered either religious fanaticism or toxic patriarchy. It is neither. It is women who gets to decide to the kind of society that she will create for the future of humanity or any species, so in a way, yes she is responsible for the condition of the society but her selection is influenced by the society. So, she shapes the future of a society and the society also shapes or at least influences her choice to do so. 
We often see this with plants and animals. Human have selectively bred animals and plants to get the kind of animals, plants, vegetarbles, fruits that we have today. We shaped the future of these fruits, vegetables, animals such as cows, sheeps, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage etc., We did this with what we consume but may be now it is time to move on ourselves, not the nazi eugenics but through societal conditioning where people are still free to choose. 

The Digital Shift

As we move into an era of algorithmic dating, we have to ask: What are we selecting for now? Are we reverting to immediate visual attraction and "proof of wealth," or are we finding new ways to prioritize the traits that actually build stable, advanced civilizations?

In the archive of human history, the "Board of Directors" (the selectors) has always determined whether the next chapter is an era of war or an era of enlightenment.

The meek shall inherit the earth - Matthew 5:5

 Hindu bharath (currently india) wasn't prosperous once upon a time just because they were productive and yet non materialistic where since you are non materialistic and yet productive, you tend to produce for others which resulted in bharath once had a GDP of nearly 30% of the world because there were others outside bharath who bought from hindus. Prominent principles of hindu philosphy include things like work is worship and being detached from materialistic world. At one point holding nearly 30% of global GDP not through materialism, but through a unique paradox: high productivity paired with non-attachment. The worlds only religion perhaps with non violence as its primary principle is Jainism of india where they are not only vegetarian but won't eat honey or anything that requires killing or harming any being. They dont eat potato because it requires you to kill the plant, uproot it. They form less than 1% of india and less than 0.1% of the world but they are the richest, wealthiest and amongst the most respected group of people who can migrate anywhere, adopt, be amonst others without ever imposing any of their beliefs or customs. We see many hindus having migrated to other countries in 1000s of years ago and prospered too. Today, indians who left india have prospered more than those who stayed in india and chose to fight the system to make it better. The kashmiri hindus who chose to migrate out from kashmir away from the islamic terrorism are doing far better than those who chose to stay and fight. China which is known as the factory of the world, growing faster than the most powerful nation in the world and yet those who chose to migrate out of china to escape the over restrictive government have become more prosperous than those who chose to stay in china. Even within india those south indians who chose to migrate to germany , europe, usa, canada instead of fighting the system in india prospered far better than those who chose to fight the system and stay in india. So whoever chose to migrate out to a more welcoming, better place became more prosperous than those who chose to fight. So a meek became more prosperous than a fighter. Why? This is because of the incentives and reward system of the society. A society which rewards certain kind of behavior gets more of it from more people. Indian systems reward mediocrity, mass appeasement and hierarchy than meritocracy, so the meek meritorious indians migrated to pro merit, pro productive places like the white nations where their system rewards merit. In democracy it is in the best interest of the politicians to not solve your problems or make life easier but instead solve a problem and create more in its place, else they won't have issue make people rally behind them to get them elected to power. If a pharma/democracy/politics cures all diseases/issues/problems then they will be out of business. So, just like a sinkhole, the more you fight, the more you sink. If all of us simply try to migrate to a country which rewards us more, even religion for that matter, then every ideology, country, religion will soon improve because no plantation will survive without people to keep it up and running. A slave plantation needs slaves to keep the plantation alive and profitable. A country needs productive people to keep it functioning well. The more Chinese migrate to countries like usa, europe with better freedom of being, the more china will try to improve and offer such environment to reduce the migration of chinese. The more indians migrate out of india to europe, usa, canada and other such countries, the more india will try to offer such an environment. A lof ot islamic reform in the last decade in the middle east is due to such migration. Migration not just from geography but also from religion. The 2nd generation muslims in the west either become more liberal leading to 3rd generation moving out of Islam completely or they themselves migrate to Christianity or atheism. It is common in india, especiallay in prviate IT/tech companies where people switch jobs every 2-3 years, this ensures that they get a better hike, the company makes effort to ensure there is less attrition and they do it by creating a better environment, creating a career plan for each employee. Countries, governments, religion or any other ideology like socialism, capitalism, communism will only do better when not being better will kill them. So when people keep migrating to a better place, better country, better company, better religion, better ideology the existing ones ensure they make their religion, country, government, office, company better so that less leave. Those countries, companies, ideologies who keep getting better consistently will attract more people, they will soon have more immigration than emigration. Today people from rest of the world are lining up to get into the western white countries because they constantly keep bettering themselves and compete with each other to stay ahead in this regard. So the meek shall inherit the earth is not just a statement from the bible but a working proof in progress. If more people become meek and start simply migrating to a better place then soon the world will be a better place because those who run the countries, those who run the religions; they all need people to survive. What will oligarchs do if there is no one to exploit or loot? If more people become like kuvempu, vishwamanav (world citizen), where instead of enslaving their entire blood line to a made up line, demarcation (physical or virtual) and keep migrating towards better opportunities, the world soon will be an utopia.

Stop fighting, stop trying to correct, improve a nation or an ideology. If you love it so much then migrate and prosper and when enough people to it they shall automatically be forced to improve.
