So the problem we’re trying to overcome is that SUGGESTION is more useful in training intuition than reason, because the exercise of reason limits intuition. This is why women and jews tell stories by suggestion – to create a context for adaptation that is free of responsibilty. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393202481195327492

So we humans evolved not only self-domestication but self adaptation as social units – which is what drove demand for our increasing neoteny: trading of agency and sociability and reciprocity for aggression, strength, and intutionistic velocity. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393202155708985346

The human brain (mind) evolved to ADAPT constantly at the cost of needing training that was provided by life in bands and tribes with continuous reinforcement, and a division of cognitive load between the prey-and-children -in-the-moment and predator-and-tribe-across-time. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393201259453222928

‘m working on trying to develop a vocabulary for describing how women need to tell themselves stories(lies) to manage their emotions by self-suggestion, (sedation) so that they DON’T have to consciously ADAPT their intuitions by rational discipline. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393199745645125632

In both cases(male or female) we are trying to generate pro-familial, pro-social, pro-political behavior through mindfulness(intuitionistic discipline) by gradual increase in the relevant cognitive load by continuous feedback, so that self-interest (infantilization) is prevented. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393199143028498432

This is why women with a lot of children tend to converge with male political sensibility, and women without them tend to remain overly self consious – which is where the bad female behavior comes from. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393198823955128322

If I work at it, for just a moment, I can simulate the mind of a woman, and the chaos is overwhelming. But we look at this incorrectly – the female mind evolved for a very different high cognitive load, and bad female behavior is a result of ABSENCE of that cognitive load. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1393198353538818048

The male mind is far easier to explain because we evolved greater hemispheric, episodic, context, and task specialization than females precisely because we dont need to continuously monitor children (chaos), and territorial (system) awareness is more orderly.

Understand, that Israel remains a low trust country. The question is whether trust is genetic, cultural, or both. The evidence is increasingly that it’s genetic and therefore cultural, unless overwhelmed by a dominant culture.
