  • Wealth Causes Genders to Specialize Not Compromise

    —”Previous research suggested that sex differences in personality traits are larger in prosperous, healthy, and egalitarian cultures in which women have more opportunities equal with those of men. In this article, the authors report cross-cultural findings in which this unintuitive result was replicated across samples from 55 nations (N = 17,637). On responses to the Big Five Inventory, women reported higher levels of neuroticism, extraversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness than did men across most nations. These findings converge with previous studies in which different Big Five measures and more limited samples of nations were used. Overall, higher levels of human development–including long and healthy life, equal access to knowledge and education, and economic wealth–were the main nation-level predictors of larger sex differences in personality. Changes in men’s personality traits appeared to be the primary cause of sex difference variation across cultures. It is proposed that heightened levels of sexual dimorphism result from personality traits of men and women being less constrained and more able to naturally diverge in developed nations. In less fortunate social and economic conditions, innate personality differences between men and women may be attenuated.”—

  • Beautiful Description of “the Commons”

    Nov 27, 2019, 5:20 AM BEAUTIFUL DESCRIPTION OF “THE COMMONS” by JWarren Warren: The idea of a society’s common property is more than merely infrastructure and services and whatever we are taxed to provide. The commons can be public or private and it can be a community effort or merely between neighbors. It’s also the motivation that keeps parks clean and allows people to walk around a city unmolested. It is the guy who doesn’t rake his grass clippings in storm drains and the neighbor who watches your house while you are on vacation – it is what motivates us as being accountable to ourselves and others. It’s why you were taught as kids to confess to your neighbor for breaking his window on accident. The commons is not only the social trust that motivates a civilized behavior that avoids imposing costs on others, it is the imperative of improving society by personal actions – a belonging and an inclusion into group trust.
