—“Curt: Can you clarify the difference between infantilization and domestication?”— Murray Sell

Sure,

DOMESTICATION: The use of institutions to delay and reduce sexual maturity through intergenerational selection. (the reduction of impulsivity – largely through the reduction of testosterone and estrogen.)

–vs–

INFANTILIZATION: The use of information to delay and reduce cognitive ability – largely through the distribution of disinformation.

Today’s youth have been infantilized, and too many are from undomesticated reproductive lines.

A spartan is domesticated but the opposite of infantilized.
