I don't think it's excusing or justifying to say that something is unreliable, and therefore should not be relied on. In this case, unrelated males who form a sexual relationship with a mother who has children are dangerous to the children, and should not be relied on. Perhaps what you find offensive is the suggestion that there is a natural explanation for the behavior, i.e., maximizing the reproduction of one's own genes, not those of a rival. It may offend you, but it seems to be a fact, nonetheless.

You are mixing up biology and morality.

I have no LEGAL tolerance for abuse (as was quite clear from what I said).

I questioned having children when I was a teenager- you strike me as very immature. Are you very young?

When I talked about brakes (excuse use of the wrong word- my mind thinks almost completely in sound, I often have this problem but usually I catch it on edit)it has nothing to do with moral brakes. I am talking PURELY about a biological father's instinctive desire to benefit and advance his genes through his children. This innately puts the biological father in a better position to defend/not harm his own young. The non-biological male does NOT have this relationship. There is no morality in this relationship- it is a mere matter of happenstance.

I do not JUSTIFY I explain. It is sad if you cannot tell the difference. For example, if you walk on the rims of volcanoes SOMETIMES they collapse- I do not JUSTIFY this, I do not think it is a good thing, but I DO think people should be educated about that.

And what does "repression yields expression" mean? Are you going to Jesse Jackson's school for the rhyming impaired?
