Scientists blend thousands of faces together to reveal what the typical woman's face looks like in 41 different countries from around the globe.

And the result is as follows...

Right, cause men who are what we might term "ladies men" never look at a potential partners hips, right?

I was thinking about the reducing love to a chemical process part of the sentiment.

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure that weathers the exact same criticism any better.

Are you suggesting that men who might term as "ladies men" would never think love is just a chemical? I find that more laughable than the previous idea.

And I'm terribly sorry that you find personal fault with me for believing in materialism, but it's not my fault if you believe fairy tales and some absurd reality that is non-material.

You must be an absolute doll on anniversaries.

Cause saying that love is a chemical process means I am incapable of being nice to people? Your reasoning is getting worse and worse by the comment, stop yourself before you wind up sounding like Trog or BDJ

[malasadas.livejournal.com]

If the only reason you can think of that means you are being nice is because of chemicals and fairy tales, I'll stand by the assessment.

Again, it's not my fault you choose to believe in fairy tales that posit a world beyond material.

This is like when people tell me "I feel bad for you, that you don't have God/Jesus in your life."

And ya know what I say to them? I'm sad that you are dumb, but I can't change that.

Accepting the reality of materialism and accepting the consequences of that (among the consequences is that emotions, from love to hate, are all just chemicals) is something any intelligent person ought to do. But I can't make you.

"Happy anniversary, honey! Please accept this archaic signifier of my intent to claim super ordinate copulation privileges with your sufficiently ample pelvic region!"

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you recognize it as archaic. You are truly trapped in tradition, and that is unfortunate, since tradition attempts to justify itself with inadequate reason.


You can keep believing in the wizard of Oz, I prefer the knowledge of what is behind the curtain.

You may say, I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. ;)

Honestly? Now you might be on to something.
