Let us hold fast to the ancient path so that we can master what we have today. Lao C´
Deviation is a word with a neutral charge, neither plus nor minus, and it means “a divergence.” In this sense, I use the term in the rest of the text. This is enough illumination of terminology.
The meaning of life is life. No one has discovered anything better yet. Life and its continuation, and likely further development, too. At a certain point in development, self-breeding (parthenogenesis) ends, and life continues with the meeting of germ cells, male and female. That is how it is done, without taking into account that there are creatures who are different and have no clearly defined role in any continuation of life. Animals do not discriminate species affected by deviation, nor send them to reservations or award them honor. The continuation of life can be summarized in a simple formula: for the entertainment and pleasure of females, males do it easily, and the victor takes everything, which means his gene spreads further.
Social engineers should understand that this is how things work if life is to be preserved. The twentieth gender will, despite defenders of various deviations, not be the continuation of life, and there is no reason it should be celebrated and favored. Since homosexuality is also found in species other than primates, there is no need to dwell on its existence. Psychiatrist Ari Kiev traveled around the world cross-country in the last century; the result of his findings is that everywhere—regardless of conditions and circumstances—1% of people are schizophrenics. These people usually do not leave many offspring, because the disorder begins early and usually excludes them from ordinary sexual competition. Yet their number remains the same, so it is probably a kind of “nature’s laboratory,” just as 6% of severe depressions, with a similar but less socially severe handicap, do. From every norm we find a certain percentage of deviations.
All preachers on the defense of the strangest forms of sexual identity should become familiar with Erik Erikson’s developmental theory, which appears sufficiently plausible in today’s confused times. The period of adolescence (formerly puberty) is the time of searching for one’s own identity. It is not merely unpredictable bombardment with sex hormones, but also a period of major brain changes and difficult social maturation. Hormones are not dosed according to a prescribed pattern, so it is no surprise that a young person feels one way today and completely different tomorrow, from self-confidence to sexual certainty. “Primitive” societies had clever institutions, separate houses where adolescents grew up and came to terms with their adult role. They were presented with clear and polar clearly defined models and examples. They were not distracted by fashion outbursts, not disoriented, and were instead assured of their adult identity.
Those were the “primitive idiots,” while our society lets preschool children decide what parents should do by promoting what is called “permissive upbringing,” and curse those who would prefer the opposite, leaving adolescents to the mercy of their uncertainties. This is further amplified by easy access to psychoactive substances with a destructive effect on brain development and by the promotion of all sorts of deviations. Moreover, by challenging feminine and masculine roles in everyday life—these are truly two distinct sexes with distinct biopsychosocial traits and aims—we end up fading away as a nation and as a large community, and, like Rome, everything here will soon belong to the “barbarians.” We resist immigration as if possessed.
Long ago, a specialist in laterality explained to me that many individuals are born ambidextrous—neither clearly right- nor left-handed—but since this world is built for right-handers, most of them adapt; only those completely lateralized remain left-handers. For THIS minority, we still have no legal regulations. We merely allow them to write with their left hand. But then we also permit other deviations in others. Without having to write daily about left-handedness, its advantages, and its problems. And enforce rights for them! And turn the uncertain into “convinced” left-handers.
