Let's do the time warp again.

My eye was drawn to this article in the news this morning. I'm sure some of my friends list will be outraged by these relationships, whilst some, like me, will just find it funny.

Thinking about it, if this is all it takes to get paid a fat sum by the press these days, I reckon I could do that. In fact, given that my idea of romance is to use a slightly smaller club, in some ways I already do.
David, who prefers to be called Og, lives in a cave with his girlfriend, "Wum-mann" as she likes to be known.
"Me see David as breadwinner", said Wu-mann. "Me like him bring home big brontosaurus for dinner, then drag me by hair to special cave".
In reply, David (or Og) grunts and scratches himself.

But what do my lady readers think?

I can agree that we were organized in an extended family/troop type system. That females in our species are better designed for hunting I would disagree strongly. One there would be no advantage to the troop to send its most valuable members into a danger rich environment. the loss of a single female is probably as bad as losing 5 or 6 males. secondly one of the few actually recordable differences between male and female brains is in regards to spatial science. Men at the expense of perhaps there ability to conceptualize have a much better spatial awareness a trait needed for extended hunting trips. The next argument would be we are a creature that learns by copying our parents(Ape's) A women will be taking time out to defend our young if the best hunters are the women your troop starves. A women has a second child and you lose the ability to teach the older children to hunt.

Women seem to be in there own way fiercely Territorial in defence of there own. perhaps this is a suggestion that they defended home base. Though I am sure that stone age women would not be against skwaking buggs bunny if he walked too near :)

I do not say that this is not a generalization, and I agree that women are and can be as aggressive as men. Social development has changed the perceptions of rolls and much of the views that many people both male and female. Both men and women are part of one of the most successful and aggressive species that the world has known on an evolutionary scale. I think you are total right and was pleasantly surprised to see someone who agrees that the species would have developed in a equlitarian way (is that a word?)

Yes there probably were and still are women who could hunt better and men who can do housekeeping and perimiter defence better......but when looking at the neolithic we have to generalize and make assumptions from the biology of our race.

Sorry I studied paleontology for 4 years, so tend to be a bit too biological.

As to the beefy men.......is that illegal? I mean I am all for the odd big club used in a comedic way........

What form of Dyspraxia if you don't mind me asking? I have Dyslexia and TEL both total different, other than they may have the same initial cause, and combined often confused with Dyspraxia.

Most people can not shoot too good, its all in the breathing :)

Re: TMI probably :)

Ah.

I too was a difficult birth, a forceps and induced pregnacy after I decided I would stay womb side for an extra 3 weeks. The NHS at the time crushed my head with the tools they were using and fobbed my folks off saying babys have squishy head type things. I was one of the children lumped with specific learning dificulties as a child but that did not seem to explain my ability to zone out lse the ability to speak English and wander off......especaly funny in the middle of a game of Rugby.....why has our Hooker just gone to sit in the hedge :)

Finaly they sent me to the dyslexia institute and an educational psychologist who said you are dyslexic and most likley Dispraxic, we need to do more tests....which all came back inconclusive untill at 18 they sent me to Queens square for part of study. The great guys there informed me that I had TLE caused by focal point damage to the temporal lobe. As a result I can come across as a bit weird at times.....so apologies if my caveman rants have been odd.

The grip on the pen and the application form I can dig too :)I always hear people joking about the drunken spider to people with bad writing....well mine, I dread to think what the spider was on. hence ticking the little box on app forms.

Its legal if you can prove self defence and reasonable force....:)

Yes when I was taught to shoot my instructor told me to still my breathing and on a 350M range it can effect your shooting by quight some when using Iron Sights.

Go X lateral......I am x lateral but favor the more sinister hand :) I think it is quight common in dyslexics.....hence why they throw balls at you when assesing.
