Your perceptions of how dominant you are and how attractive your mate is affect your hormones enough to send this signal.
Also, it has to be said, the maternal organism has a fine-tuned machinery set to dispose of unfit offspring.
On May 3, 1953, two healthy girls named Kay Rene Reed and DeeAnn Angell were born at Pioneer Memorial Hospital in Heppner, Oregon. A couple of days later, they were taken home by families that lived close by - the Reeds in the city of Condon and the Angells about 20 miles south in a town called Fossil. For more than 50 years, they led perfectly normal lives and each loved their parents and siblings deeply. Kay Rene grew up, married a cattle rancher, works in a bank, and has children and grandchildren. DeeAnn grew up, married a car salesman, and became a homemaker; the couple later moved to the elk-hunting region of Mead, Washington. Their seemingly conventional life stories, though, were based on a wrenching mistake: Kay Rene and DeAnn had been accidentally switched in the hospital.
There were suspicions from the start. When nurses handed Marjorie Angell back her one-day-old daughter after taking her out of the room for a washing, she insisted, "This is not my baby." The indignant nurses huffed, "She most certainly is your baby," and that was that. Marjorie bonded with the baby and brought her newborn home to be raised with five siblings, including two-year-old twin boys.
Yet the doubts never vanished, especially as DeAnn grew and did not always fit comfortably with the rest of the Angells. Marjorie whispered her suspicions to her older daughter Juanita and to her friend Iona Robinson. Iona in turn noticed that Juanita bore a striking resemblance to a daughter in another family she knew - Kay Rene Reed.
Kay Rene was raised by Donalda Reed, who also harbored suspicions and mentioned them to her older children. Still, no one did anything about these suspicions until 2008 when Iona, by then in her late eighties and in failing health, decided to take action. After agonizing for months, she called Kay Rene's brother, Bobby Reed, explaining apologetically that she needed to get something off her chest. She told him that Kay Rene was quite likely not his biological sister. Bobby was stunned and not sure what to do. Both his parents and the Angells parents had passed away, so they could not be consulted. He did nothing for nine months but eventually decided to confide in his sisters. Together they made arrangements to meet DeeAnn. Bobby Reed's first thought upon laying eyes on DeeAnn was that "she looked just like my mom." They told Kay Rene of the situation in March of 2009, and she found the news devastating.
DeeAnn and Kay Rene met and began collecting clues from their childhoods about their accidental fates. Kay Rene once had a dust-up with a high school biology teacher who said it was genetically impossible for two blue-eyed parents to have a brown-eyed child. Brown-eyed Kay Rene insisted that must be wrong because her parents both had blue eyes. Growing up, neighborhood kids teased DeeAnn about being the only blonde in a family of brunettes. The truth concerning their biological heritage awaited DNA testing and steps were taken to resolve the matter. It took three weeks for the DNA report to arrive, a time Kay Rene describes as like "waiting for a cancer screening." She wanted very much to be a Reed, to continue being a part of the only family she had known for 55 years.
The results were unequivocal: Kay Rene had zero percent shared genetic heritage with the other Reed siblings and DeeAnn Angell was 99.9 percent related to the Reeds. The scientific confirmation devastated Kay Rene a second time. DeeAnn initially took the news beteer but soon was an emotional wreck, waking up in tears and feeling as though she had lost her mother all over again.
With the passage of years, the "swisters" became more reflective, and Kay Rene now admits to "being intrigued by the science of this, nature versus nurture." She found it a relief to know why she was the only Reed to have acne, impaired vision, and plain looks; and DeeAnn, as Bobby immediately recognized, was a dead ringer for females in the Reed family. Appearance, however, is only part of the story. Both Kay Rene and DeeAnn display behavioral and temperamental patterns notably similar to their biological families. Kay Rene chews her fingernails constantly, something nobody else in the Reed family does - but Marjorie Angell did. Kay Rene is blunt and terse; Reed siblings are anything but. She smacks gum just like one of her biological siblings. DeeAnn Angell describes herself as "a girlie girl." She likes short skirts and high heels and jokes that she would not go to her mail box without her nails and makeup being done. With regard to temperament and taste, DeeAnn concedes to being "nothing like the Angells I was raised with." While growing up she frequently felt as though she did not belong.
That DeeAnn Angell's blonde hair and noticeable looks would more closely match her biological family than her adoptive family probably surprises no one. Height, hair color, eye color, weight, facial shape, and symmetry are all known to be passed along by genetics, a fact that is apparent to the casual eye as well as in the results of systematic scientific studies. But many people have a difficult time accepting that behaviors, comportment, and attitudes are also connected to genetics. The folk wisdom seems to be that having fingernails is influenced by genetics but the habit of chewing them is not.
To a certain extent this belief is understandable. The notion that complex social behaviors might be under genetic influence makes people uncomfortable; it makes it seem as if we are not in conscious control of our actions and motivations. An alternative explanation must exist for DeeAnn and Kay Rene's behavioral resemblances to their biological families, right? Maybe it is just coincidence. Can genetics really influence taste in clothes, gum smacking, nail chewing, and perhaps political preferences?
...
Like Kay Rene Reed and DeeAnn Angell, Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were born on the same day in the same place, met each other as adults after a shocking family revelation, and had DNA that suddenly allowed previously mysterious situations to make sense. Also like Kay Rene and DeeAnn, Jim and Jim discovered they had a good deal in common, only in their case not with each other's families, but with each other. They looked alike. They had similar body language - crossing their legs the same way, for example. They had similar personalities (patient, kind, and serious). In school they had both loved math and loathed spelling. They both had the same favorite vacation spot (Pas Grill Beach in Florida). They both enjoyed carpentry as a hobby and had occupational histories in law enforcement. They both gained 10 pounds at exactly the same age but had otherwise stable weights. Beginning in their teens and ever since, they both suffered from migraines. They both experienced serious heart problems in their thirties. They had nonverbal IQ scores just one point apart (though their overall IQ differed a little more). A team of psychologists gave them a battery of 23 vocational tests and discovered they were so similar it was as if the same person had taken each test twice. It was almost like they were twins. In fact, they were. They had been adopted at the age of one month by different families who were both told their new child was a twin but that the sibling had died. Some years later, when Jim Lewis's mom was filling out legal paperwork related to the adoption, a court officer blurted out that her son's brother was alive and well. She relayed this fact to her adopted son but he was not eager to act on this information and she respected his decision. It was not until he was 39 that Jim Lewis changed his mind and the brother actually found each other and began discovering similarities. In some respects, these similarities are not so surprising because the Jims are not just twins but a special type of twin.
...
we return to DeeAnn Angell and Kay Rene Reed...One of our students...became deeply interested in the Angell-Reed case and sent several questions to the two "swisters" about their political views and those of the two families. Only Kay Rene replied, but her answers are fascinating. She reported that the Reeds, with whom she was reared, thought of themselves as moderate conservatives but were actually quite conservative, particularly on certain issues. The father who raised Kay Rene, for example, was strongly opposed to women working outside the home , going so far as to "beg" Kay Rene not to take a job until her kids were grown. Kay Rene classifies herself as a political moderate but admits to clear liberal tendencies on some issues, particularly gender equality.
Are Kay Rene's occasional liberal inclinations traceable to the political views of the Angells, her biological family? Maybe, but Kay Rene thinks probably not. She attributes her views instead to the experience of going to college in the 1970s when women's rights and racial equality were highly salient issues. Moreover, though understandably less certain of the political views of the Angell family, she suspects they also tended toward the conservative side of the ledger though not nearly as much as the Reeds. Kay Rene's more liberal politics relative to her "adoptive" family could indeed be attributable to her college experiences...Then again, as we have seen, people's brains often build narratives that downplay the role of behaviorally relevant predispositions that are in part genetic. If you had been raised in an entirely different environment, would your political orientations be completely unrecognizable from what they currently are? If Al Franken and Rush Limbaugh had been switched at birth, would Franken be conservative and Limbaugh be liberal? Or, resting at the core of our beings, are there features of our personality, phsyiology, and politics that would peek through no matter the environmental context in which we find ourselves? Burgeoning empirical research suggests we should not dismiss the latter possibility too readily.

*HEY,
MR. FUKUYAMA, I JUST GOOGLED GREG'S NAME (RIGHT NOW AT 2:30 A.M. ON JANUARY 10th OF THE YEAR 2014). I
HAD NO IDEA HE WAS THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT FIRE. IN FACT, I'D BEEN
INTERACTING WITH HIM AT LOCAL GYMS FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS (I HADN'T SEEN
HIM SINCE '98 UNTIL I RAN INTO HIM AT THE GYM IN 2010). HE WAS ALWAYS A
GOOD GUY TO ME AND SEEMED TO BE DOING ALRIGHT OR AT LEAST TRYING TO GET
HIS LIFE BACK ON TRACK WHEN I SPOKE TO HIM OVER THESE PAST FEW YEARS**.
MAN, THIS IS A COMPLETE SURPRISE TO ME. (I SENT HE AND WES AN EMAIL IN
THE SUMMER OF 2011 CONCERNING MY DEALINGS IN THE PHILIPPINES. I WANTED
THEM TO BE APART OF IT.)
**NO WONDER I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM FOR THE PAST YEAR OR SO. HE'S BEEN LOCKED UP. LITTLE DID I KNOW HE WAS BURNING HOUSES AFTER BURNING CALORIES. HEY, LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT GREG. HE CAME FROM A SOMEWHAT WEALTHY FAMILY, BUT HE ASSOCIATED WITH ASIAN*** GANGS. HE HAD A COUPLE OF ASIAN GIRLFRIENDS IN HIGH SCHOOL AND A WHITE GIRLFRIEND WHEN I SAW HIM AGAIN IN 2010. See Richie's Slight Tilt Of The Head? That's Mike Miller To The Right Of Him, By The Way. Mike's The Po-Lease And Comes From A Family Of Po-Lease. See My Slight Tilt Of The Head? There Are Photos Of Gery And I At Similar Ages Exhibiting The Same Head Tilt. Our Body Language In Those Photos Looks Eerily Similar (THAT'S NOT LEARNED BEHAVIOR). (The Head Held High, Head Tilt Is An Unconscious Display Of Pride, Arrogance, And Pompousness. "Look At ME. I'm Casual, Cool, And Conceited. Who The Fuck Are You?") |
(WE DON'T PASS GAS IN PUBLIC. THAT'S DISGUSTING. THAT'S WHAT LOWER CLASS PEOPLE DO.)
What Do All Of These Photos Have In Common? My Siblings And I Are Unconsciously Exhibiting THE SAME Behavioral Traits. NONE Of Us Were Ever Taught To Raise Our Arms When Taking A Photo Or Cross Our Arms And Wrists Or Raise Our Toes, Nor Did We Ever Observe One Another Doing This And Then Try To Imitate One Another. This Behavior (Body Language And Gestures) Is Entirely Innate. We Were Never Taught To Do Any Of This (Raise Our Arms, Cross Our Arms And Wrists And Raise Our Toes). It Just Comes To Us Unconsciously And Instinctively And Since We're All Genetically Related It's Only Natural That We Would Share These Behavioral Traits And Many Others In Common. The Same Goes For Psychological Traits. Since My Siblings And I Share The Same Parents And, Hence, 50% Of Our Genes, It's Only Natural That We Would Share Many Of The Same Psychological Tendencies (Interests, Preferences, Motivations, Worldview, Responses To Stimuli, Disposition*, Character Traits, Etc).
*I'M CERTAIN THAT A COUPLE OF MY BROTHERS AND I HAVE A SIMILAR DISPOSITION. IN THEIR YOUNGER YEARS THEY WERE JUST AS COMBATIVE, DOMINEERING, AND IMPETUOUS (HOT-HEADED) AS ME (WE WANT TO PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY DOMINATE PEOPLE UNTIL THEY KNOW THAT THEY CAN BEAT US AND THAT THEY'RE INFERIOR TO US). AND THESE PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAITS ARE MOSTLY GENETIC (NOT LEARNED).
P.S. That White/Chinese Female Ref. Was A Good One. She Was Impartial, Had A Good Understanding Of The Game, Didn't Get Flustered (Wasn't Overly Emotional), And Didn't Over-Referee (Didn't Make Too Many Calls And Thus Didn't Get Too Involved In The Game).
P.P.S See The Lighted Skinned Black Guy On The Other Team With His Hands Up (Number 33, I Believe)? Based On The Way His Arms Are Up You Can Tell That He's UNCOORDINATED, UNGAINLY, UNWIELDY, CUMBERSOME And CLUMSY, Huh? Yeah, You Can Based On This Picture And Without Seeing Him Move. And That's EXACTLY What He Was. I Hate Playing Against Guys Like This Because They're Nothing But Injury Creators. Their Wild Play Leads To Injuries (Their Dikemebe Motumbo Like Flailing Arms And Legs Leads To Injuries).
I'LL POST SOME LINKS ON BEHAVIORAL GENETICS AND FAMILY GENETICS TO BACK ALL OF THIS UP.

So, For Instance, A Father's Son Shares Many Similarities With His Father. He Thinks Similarly, Behaves Similarly, Is Interested In Similar Things, Has Similar Idiosyncrasies, Etc. And Because Of These Psychological Similarities Experiences Many Of The Same Things That His Father Did At Similar Ages (Begins Getting Into Trouble Around The Same Age, Has Sex Around The Same Age, Becomes Intellectually Inclined Around The Same Age, Etc).
So You Think To Yourself, "The Father's Parenting Resulted In The Son Becoming Just Like Him." But In Actuality, It's The Genes That The Father And Son Share In Common Combined With The Environment That Those Genes Led The Son To Create (How He Looked At The World, What He Found Interesting, What He Was Good At, Who He Associated With, Who He Was Attracted To, Etc.), Which Was Similar To His Father's Environment That Ultimately Led The Son To Be Very Similar To His Father.
If One Or Both Of Your Parents (Especially If Both Of Your Parents), Had High Sex Drives In Their Reproductive Prime, We're Overtly Very Sexual, And Had Sex Or Children At An Early Age There's A Strong Likelihood (Greater Than 75%) That You'll Be The Same. There's A Strong Correlation Between The Age Your Same Sex Parent First Had Sex And The Age You (His Same Sex Child) Had Sex. So If Your Father Had Sex At Age 14 There's A Strong Probability That You (His Son) Will Have Sex Around That Age.
I Think Gery Was In 9th Or 10th Grade When This Photo Was Taken. He Looks Like A Formidable Guard Doesn't He?
"THEY MESSiCAN MAiNE! NiGGA THEY HALVE MESSiCAN MAiNE!"
"THEY MESSiCAN MAiNE! NiGGA THEY HALVE MESSiCAN MAiNE!"
If You Saw Gery Play In His Prime You Wouldn't Have Known What He Was. By The Way, He Didn't Make The High School Varsity Basketball Team His Sophomore Year. He Made It His Freshman Year (Freshman Year At Sunny Hills High School) And People Said He Was The Best Freshman To Play In The Freeway League Since Mark Wulfmeyer. Coincidentally, Gery Ended Up Playing With And Against Mark In Those Laguna Beach Tournaments *In The 80s. They Won The Title Together In 1985. Mark, After Playing Against Gery, Once Said Something To Him Along The Lines Of "I'm Having A Hard Time Guarding You In A Half Court Game. I Can Only Imagine What You'd Do In A Full-Court Game." (Gery Was Recruited By The University Of Dayton In Eighth Grade While Living In OhiO! He Still Has Those Letters. (Real Ohio Player!) There Are Many More Articles That Feature Gery From His High School And Junior College Years. THAT KAILUA PARK THAT GERY WAS MENTIONING IN THE ABOVE ARTICLE!

Here's Another Quick Story. I Was Hooping (Playing Basketball) At Central Park In La Palma Around 1998 And A Black Man In His Mid-40s Or So (Monroe's Father (The Bus Driver) For Those Of You WHO Know Monroe) Said "Hey, Did You And Your Father Play AT Independence Park In The 70s?" And I Looked At Him Oddly And Said "No, I Was Born In 1979". So He Said "Yeah, But You Look, Move, And Shoot* Just Like This Guy That I Used To Play With AT Independence Park." And I Again Said That It Wasn't ME. Anyway, Weeks Later I Thought About This Exchange I Had With This Black Man (Monroe's Father) And Asked My Father If He And Gery Ever Played AT Independence Park In The 70s And, As It Turns Out, They Had. So I Put 2 And 2 Together And Figured That This Black Man (Monroe's Father) Had Lost Track Of Time And Mistaken ME For Gery. I Guess Gery And I Looked So Similar And Played So Similarly To Him That He Completely Forgot That Over Twenty Years Had Passed And That The Guy He Remembered Playing With AT Independence Park Should've Have Aged (Been 20+ Years Older), Been About 5 Inches Taller, And Not Looked As Young As ME. Anyhow, Do You Get The Moral Of The Story? BEHAVIORAL GENETICS, FAMILY GENETICS. (I Took The Black Man Back And Made Him Lose Track (Of Time). My Hoop Game Transported Him Back In Time. He Watching ME Play Made Him Time Travel. You're Traveling!)

What Appears To Be The Effects Of Parenting On Children Is Actually The Effects Of The Parent's Genes On Their Children Coupled With The Environment That Those Genes Incline The Children To Create. In Other Words, When You See Someone's Child And Think "Wow, He's Just Like His Father. His Father Must Have Raised Him To Be Like That."

By The Time Amelianaire Moves Out Of Her Adopted Parents Home And Becomes A Fully Matured Adult, She Too Will Share Few Psychological And Behavioral Traits In Common With Her Adopted Parents And Siblings. However, She'll Closely Resemble Her Biological Parents, Whom She's Never Met, In The Traits I Previously Mentioned (Personality, Disposition, Ideology, Etc). (Genes Have A Greater Effect On Life Outcome Than Does Environment.)

CORNBALL. iitsHeather, He Racked His Brain For That Lame Comeback, Huh? Hey, Heather, My Father Once Said Of Carl, "Carl's Not Black*" And By That He Meant Carl Didn't Think Black, Act Black, Or Know Anything About Blacks Because He Wasn't (And Still Isn't) Black. He's Mexican And My Father Was Exactly Right About His Assessment Of Him (Carl). My Father Was Perceptive And Could Read People Well. Anyway, The Interests, Ideology, Preferences, Thoughts, Etc. Expressed By Carl Are Not Reflective Of My Siblings Or Parents Interests, Ideology, Preferences, Thoughts, Etc. Because We Share No Genes With Him. They Are, However, Reflective Of His Parents. They're Reflective Of His Mexican Mother's And Black Father's Interests, Ideology, Preferences, Thoughts, Etc. Because They Created Him And Thus Share 50% Of Their Genes With Him (He's Composed Of 50% Mexican Genes And 50% Black Genes And These Genes Have Lead To His Interests, Ideology, Preferences, Thoughts, Etc.).
*Have You Ever Seen Carl Around Blacks That He Doesn't Know Or REAL NIGGAZ? He's Uncomfortable And Comes Off Awkward And Not Like Them When He's Around Them. And They Sense All Of This.
Jonna Spilbor, You, Like Most Attorneys (And Most People In General), Know Nothing About Human Evolution, Human Genetics, And Human Biology. Was The Behavior That These Three Black Teen Thugs Exhibited Learned Or Inherited (Genetic)? A Combination Of The Two, But Mostly Genetic, Jonna.
Jonna Spilbor, Blacks Have Genes That Code For High Testosterone Levels And High T Levels Result In High Levels Of Aggression And Risk-Taking. Blacks Also Tend To Be Higher In Tribalism, Disagreeableness And Territoriality. These Genetic Predispositions Along With The Low Socioeconomic Environment In Which They Were Raised (Which Includes The Influence Of Their Peer Group) And The Rap/Hip Hop Subculture That Holds Sway Over This Demographic Ultimately Leads Them To Engage In This Behavior.
The Genetic Component Is The Strongest Factor Here, Though, Jonna Spilbor, Because It Inclines Them To Think And Behave In A Certain Manner And Ultimately Channels Them Down This Path. (If You're Born With A Propensity To Play Sports And Enjoy Sports You'll Choose An Environment, Which Includes Your Peers, That Will Eventually Lead You To Engage In Sports. Do You See The Analogy Jonna? It's The Genes That Are Channeling You In A Certain Direction.)
PASSAGES FROM THE AGILE GENE: HOW NATURE TURNS ON NURTURE COMING TOMORROW CONCERNING THE GENETIC INFLUENCE ON THE PERSONALITY AND INTELLIGENCE OF TWINS. ONCE YOU'VE READ THESE PAGES RELATE WHAT YOU'VE READ TO YOUR BIOLOGICAL PARENTS AND SIBLINGS. (HOPEFULLY YOU'LL REALIZE HOW BIG OF A ROLE GENES PLAY IN YOUR PSYCHOLOGICAL AND BEHAVIORAL TRAITS AFTER READING THEM).
It is, however, counterintuitive after a century of Freudian certainties to find how little that intrinsic character is influenced by the families they grew up in. |
So it is not crazy to conclude that people differ in personality more if they have different genes than if they are reared in different families. |
Living In An Intellectual Home Does Make You More Likely To Become An Intellectual. |
By adulthood, intelligence is like personality: mostly inherited, partly influenced by factors unique to the individual, and very little affected by the family you grew up in. https://x.com/DegenRolf/status/1692529399030059147 |
"The heritability of IQ increases from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared family environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, whereas nurture becomes less."
