Which gender should be selfless or self sacrificing?

Question

Women

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

Men because the female is the one who gives birth and ultimately becomes disabled during and after pregnancy. And she is instinctively, forever forced to protect and care for her brat. Unlike the male.

This takes place throughout most species. Specially mammals. Humans are mammals. The male is the one who has to protect, and serve. The male is the one who’s job is to be selfless and self sacrificing to ensure the survival of his entire family. The female of our species is not as physically strong as the male. This means men’s bodies are literally designed for combat. The male is the one who literally has to sacrifice his life if it means the survival of his entire family.
Because women are physically weak, we literally could get raped and killed by other males / enemies, as well as our offspring.

This is why you always see men trying to impress of woo the female with gifts and food. He literally feeds the female as a sign of care and protection.

BECAUSE THE MALE WHO doesn't GIVE BIRTH IS THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO PROTECT HIS FEMALE.

Both should be. I think this is a quality every human being should possess especially towards the ones they claim to love. When you can put aside your own whatever, and think totally about someone else and their needs and their wants and what would make them happy or give them the most care, and then do that thing without want of reward or acknowledgement, is part of a foundation for many good relationships.

Traditionally it has been the male which was sacrificing for the greater good of the tribe, community, country. Men were considered disposable, which is backed up by facts that you have more than twice as many female ancestors than male. However, the question is not who was but what should be the case. In this era of feminism and equality, I believe men should not show any undue sympathy or empathy for women, because they do not get any back. The average man is invisible for the average woman so unless he is related to any woman by blood or by good friendship, he should not move a finger for her.

so what i'm gonna say may sound sexist but it is actually backed by social scientific facts: generally speaking, having a child rised by a single parents is not gonna be optimal either way. but children raised by single mothers are more likely to fare worse on a number of dimensions, including their school achievement, criminal activity, their social and emotional development, their health and their success in the labor market.

so by that logic, women should sacrifice themself first, cause the children will objectively do better if rised by a single dad.

Both should be. But something is happening in our culture in the last few decades (especially the last few years) where more and more people see kindness and weakness and look to exploit it. Then the once kind people get jaded and they turn around and exploit other people thinking it’s a zero sum game.

More and more people are becoming increasingly selfish and this bad for human society. Really bad.

Why should a gender be self sacrificing? That would mean you literally are forced to self sacrifice yourself if you are born a certain gender, that would be a ridiculous injustice. Everyone should be a little less self centered and care for his next one more, doesn`t matter the gender.

Depending on the situation there's a time and a place for both
As long as your working together for the greater good. Sometimes we have to do things we don't want to do. But if the outcome is for each other you will do both and it's okay

inhua · Answer

women more selfless and men more self-sacrificing but since many women don't want to be selfless, it makes no sense for men to be self-sacrificing

AngryCarl2 · Answer

I know my father sacrificed a lot to look after the family. My mother arguably sacrificed her career, not sure how much of a hardship that was? But she did go through childbirth three times which must have been inconvenient.
