Is our anger instinctual?

[inklingPro 1980]

I've read a ton about evolutionary psych because it fascinates me. I've also read quite a bit about rejection and anger. New research in neurology shows a very clear connection between the part of our brain that senses rejection cues (it evolved to be VERY sensitive because rejection meant death in the tribal era) and the self control part.

Because the well researched studies show people are more apt to become violent when rejected (men) I would like your opinion or view on it. Most of society is too fucking dumb to see any connections. Someone snap and they call him a monster or freak or psycho. I know better and I feel that most of us know better.

Of course its fucking instinctual.

It's our monkey brain at work. We can be as civilized as we want, at the end of the day were still monkeys

That is also why it´s so preposterous that people are being shamed for rape and even murder and the same with pedophilia. Are these people committing these acts insane individuals that isn´t even human? NO! Where does this behavior come from it comes from? Our natural side our natural instinct and it´s utterly ridicules that "civilized" humans try and pretend it is nothing but.

EXACTLY. We punish human nature

They do. Take for instance a man that has a sexual attraction to a young fertile girl aged 16, in the US you would go to jail for having sex with her and being shamed by society and even have to register as a sex offender even though she consented. And there isn´t any unnatural about this attraction. She is a young fertile girl in her prime! A even better example would be using teenage boys as an example because I can subjectively way in on this. My sex drive and most males sex drive peaks around 13-16 so adult women go to jail (teachers in the news) for having sex with a male in his prime! Does this mean that society got it right and nature got it wrong? FUCK NO! Society is fucked up and as you said They punish human nature.

There are both mutable and immutable laws of human nature, we cannot mute the immutable laws, any attempt to do so will only end up in more socialism or authoritarian control, however, mutable laws, we have to mute to stop us from collapsing into the same scenario. Men being angry at being fucked over is legitimate anger and is not really mutable. Female hypergamy is mutable (through patriarchy).

It's instinctual as its reactionary. Rightfully so.

 

[Uglyman]

All emotions and irrational thinking are instinctual
