We have representative samples and general differences in philogenesis. And these generate tendencies, but that is, again, a topic of another thread.

representative samples != all women ever.

Indeed. Saying that because something holds true to persons A, B, C, and D that it must therefore hold true to all other persons is called a hasty generalization and is, according to science, invalid.

It's scary how much some of this thinking is reminding me of some dialogue from Planet of the Apes and Roots movies. One based on fiction and one based on history where scientists made such claims before having their theories proven wrong.

Griffork: I'm back! Just saw the trailer of Masters of Albion and it's a godgame! Immediately thought of this forum and decided to visit. Aug 21, 2024 7:51:22 GMT

Griffork: Sorry for being away for so long. The job I had at the beginning of the year seems to be having a full-blown melt-down (and I got caught in it). I'm now at a new place but the new job has been a very hectic learning experience (yay for being on R&D!) Aug 21, 2024 7:55:26 GMT

Lord Ba'al: He is indeed at it again. I read a few lines from some article saying he took something from this game and something from that game and something from yet another game and put it all together. Aug 21, 2024 17:34:06 GMT
