TJ, you obviously spent not long enough studying that fascinating post as it was all there, give or take a few details. For ease of reference, here it is again <Lest people get confused, a little detail is needed. There were blokes who went out with the women 90,000 years ago and indeed there were already blokes roaming around outside Africa 100,000 years ago, and women.

But what happened at 90,000 years ago [or thereabouts] was a lady left Africa and became the mother of all subsequent women and men who were born not in Africa. The rest all died out.

Despite the warning about getting confused, you got confused, even though that explanation was there. <I find it difficult to believe women travelled wwithout men, andmanaged to populate the world. > Read slower, move lips, keep finger on the words and you'll get it. It's a heck of a lot easier than electrical engineering.

As it says, blokes did indeed travel with said first woman out, but they all died off [along with all other women of the time and their descendants]. Those earlier blokes out were replaced by other blokes, whose lines also died off, until about 20,000 years ago, a bloke who made it came out and stayed out and won and all others descended from him and subsequent people who left Africa.

I shall make it even simpler. Imagine you and wife go on holiday to Bora Bora from Hong Kong. You go snorkeling and get eaten by a shark. As you can imagine, if that was before or even after, Erita's beginnings, your Y chromosome would have gone to the big teepee in the sky. Say wife and Erita decided to stay in Bora Bora because it's nice and the inheritance of gold was adequate. The local yokels would no doubt have been tempting after a time and further offspring would be born. Say that was 60,000 years ago.

Then, some other couple goes to Bora Bora for a holiday, 30,000 years ago. Maybe having a little boy born while they are there. The little boy is highly desirable to the women of Bora Bora and he is highly successful in defeating other males in competitions and he's generally quite lucky and smart. So more and more of his descendants come to predominate, in the end, no others being left.

Another 30,000 years go by and genetic measurement is available. The geneticists find that your chromosome disappeared about 90,000 years ago, but Erita's and your wife's genes are prolific and so prolific in fact that all people at Bora Bora descended from them. The geneticists look at the Y chromosome and find that the only Y chromosome is from the bloke who arrived on holiday 30,000 years ago, with all others having fizzled out.

So, as you can now see, everyone on Bora Bora would have descended from the woman who arrived 90,000 years ago and the bloke who arrived 30,000 years ago [or maybe it was 20,000 years ago].

It doesn't involve time travel, but it does say something about the relative risks of being a male or a female. Blokes are more prolifically reproductive than women if they get a chance, which they do if they are successful in genocidal war which usually involves blokes killing off competing males and taking over the women. Lions do that too [and kill the cubs].

It's important that you understand that TJ, so you can see who should go back where.

Of course the whole return idea is daft. I was born here and have nowhere to go [as of right]. I don't plan to leave. If I went back to where my mother was born I'd be stuck in cold Dalian. No thanks. There's no going back, though Zionists have tried to go back to The Promised Land and appear to have succeeded. China is wanting to take over Taiwan because centuries ago somebody in China was brutal enough to have conquered the local yokels.
