- Build woman beating robot
- Harvest tears from beatings
- Expose violent husbands to harvested tears. Domestic Abuse Abolished 👍
This shouldn’t have made me laugh. But alas…
I don’t know if tears of joy or sadness will work, but maybe just try those before we build an army of woman pummeling robots? Surely synthetic tears are an option.
All I am saying is we don’t need to go right to having robots take our jobs on this one.

Nature has ways of self-regulating, but some of them are pretty dark.
Male aggression leads to a lot of messed up shit. But some stuff is funny. There is this species of hummingbirds where males develop a bright purple star shaped plumage around their face. About 25 percent of females develop these characteristics too. Because bluffing yourself out of male aggression, outweighed the pro’s of camouflage against predators. The biologist said that people often ask how it influnenced fheir chances at mating, to which he replied with: “I’ve seen male hummingbirds try to mate with a stump, so I don’t expect it to be much of a problem.” Adding to this, is that if too many females develop a male phenotype, the signaling “I am terretorial, stay away or I’ll attack” of the feathers loses it’s meaning and thus its protection.
This 44 percents says a lot about scale of study and it’s makes me uncomfortable that someone actually wanted to make people sniff women’s tears for no reason at all
Just because the reason isn’t obvious doesn’t mean it’s not real. They probably had some indication of what to expect even before they started the experiment. That’s where a lot of hypotheses come from in the first place.
“for no reason at all”
Really? Those words alone say a lot about how dumb you are.
“Your tears sustain my chill!”
I smell a business opportunity.
There was a New Wave band back in the 70s called Sniff and the Tears. I think they were ahead of their time.
Me, making this my slack profile of the week:
I keep a bottle in the glove box.
What about male tears? What about female aggression? Sounds like a strange framing for the study.
Have you considered reading the article? Sound smile a strange comment making for the subject.
Having confirmed the effect of sniffing tears on men’s behavior, the researchers are keen to expand their research.
“When we looked for volunteers who could donate tears, we found mostly women because, for them, it’s much more socially acceptable to cry,” Agron said. “Now, however, we must extend this research to include women to obtain a fuller picture of this impact.”
From the study itself
Moreover, although we tested tears from women donors, we speculate that all tears would have a similar effect. This becomes particularly ecologically relevant with infant tears, as infants lack verbal tools to curb aggression against them and are therefore more likely to rely on chemosignals.
Missed those lines, fair enough.
