I became an uncle just over 18 months ago. Little one has now grown to the point he runs and speaks words. It is very adorable and all that of course, but its also fascinating to see how very stereotypically he is developing.
One of his first words and concepts is "tractor". Now he doesnt quite fully grasp the concept, so a lot of things that are not tractors become "trakto", but hes learning. Hes also learned car, and anything with flashing lights on it is a "ba-bu"
It really started to get funny in the last few weeks, grandpa had shown him tractors on his phone earlier one day, and not only did he demand i pull up "trakto" on mine, he would grab my thumb and jab it into the screen if i wasnt quick enough pulling up tractor videos.
Long winded way of saying, having seen how a boy child of less than two will gravitate instantly to objects like tractors has made me hate the trooning of children even more on a personal level.
I remember reading about an experiment done with baby chimpanzees, and when given an option, female chimps played with dolls, while male chimps played with sticks and trucks. Gender is biological, and we even have heckin science to prove it. But fag activists are child abusers and they don't care.
Hell, teach monkeys the concept of money and the females will naturally invent prostitution to get it. We're not le heckin' Tabula Rasa™ no matter how much we try to deny it.
Tabula Rasa literally didn't survive the decade it was modernly pushed in, and that was with the entire Liberal media and Psychology industry pushing it. With numerous huge name "scientists" conducting every study possible to try and prove it.
It failed so significantly that Wikipedia buries all the men associated with it to pin it all on Freud, the wrongthinker. And then they flipped hard with the "doll racism" study to prove how heckin' evil the Whites were and that study alone is like 1/3rd of the foundation of the Civil Rights lawsuits of the 60s winning. So Tabula Rasa was completely abandoned then.
Anyone who ever thinks Tabula Rasa is remotely valid, is revealing themselves to be more retarded than a monkey.
The closest Tabula Rasa ever came to being validated were from several experiments over the centuries where infants were raised by mutes to see if, absent ever hearing any human languages, the children would innately speak the language of God. Instead they learned no communication skills whatsoever.
The fact that humans are capable of learning period defies tabula rasa, as it shows we have innate skills and brain functionality without our environment to begin with.
Its only when they keep redefining it and what it means over and over to preclude the things that disprove it that they can even begin to claim it validated.
Tabulara rasa was a cool item in PoE. :)
Only knew the term from a Touhou character by the name of Ellen lmao
It was also an entire MMO that sold its lead dev's blood as a preorder bonus.
And in the end was illegally shut down and canceled while he was taking a trip into space.
What did they use as currency? Bananas?
You joke, but no, the researchers gave the capuchin monkeys silver tokens that were exchangeable for things like grapes or Jell-O cubes.
Huh... Now i understand why niggers love grape flavoured shit
Its too delectable to their "progenitors"
Yeah that's what I always think of too.
Years ago, an ex-girlfriend of mine was a Kindergarten assistant (she's a teacher now--and a good one). One thing they did was ask kids what they wanted to be when they grew up, do their best to write it out, and then draw a picture.
She was laughing because all of the kids, ever year, picked VERY stereotypical boy/girl things, even the ones with crazy hippy leftist parents.
Her absolute favorite was this one boy who wrote down "Worman" (that's W-O-R-M-A-N) and drew an elaborate (yet hard to tell what was going on) picture of a person with all this bulky clothing on.
The main teacher (big lefty) started talking to this kid, and was like, so, tell me about what it means to you to be a woman (WOMAN) when you grow up?
The kid looks at the main teacher like she is the stupidest person in the world and says "No, boys cannot be women. I said that I wanted to be a WAR MAN. I want to shoot bad guys."
Today they'd probably already have that poor kid on hormones.
The Nineteenth Amendment and its Consequences have been a Disaster for the United States.
The 17th through 23rd amendments were literally all mistakes.
Sounds like a perfect background story for a Marvel character.
Was planes for me. But my parents put a stop to that real fast. Forced to watch Disney Channel for years. Its a miracle I didn't become a faggot.
Was always wondering the origin story behind our very own Austrian painter.
They wouldn't let him play Ace Combat, so he decided to show them what V2 was for.
He demanded we watch "Fantus" today, which i figured would be norwegian state broadcaster slop. Surprisingly it was just big vehicles and tools.
Same
Disney is full of crypto feminism and literal gay shit
All trannys have been abused or molested. It isn't normal. Its a sign of sickness
There's a lot of videos and books aimed at young children that show big machines working. Congrats on being an uncle.
my favorite videos from the library were big machines working
Such as "Big Work Machines", a childhood favorite of mine.
When I was a tyke, I was all about trains. Trains were the coolest thing in the world. Nowadays, my interests lie elsewhere, but I still have a deep appreciation for all the mechanical marvels we've created.
Just think of it. We've essentially built our own animals. They need food. They have joints that need lubrication. They have intense networks of interconnected systems that all rely and depend on each other to function properly. It's downright incredible!
And even if he did not gravitate to "traditionally boy" things, it is not evidence that he is "assigned male at birth", or "a girl trapped in the body of a boy", or whatever queer midwit word salad they wish to invoke. Let this hypothetical child like what he likes without trying to sterilize him through chemicals and surgery.
Seen with fresh eyes, tractors are really cool, with the giant rear wheels and everything.
If he starts looking at trains it's early signs of autism.
My wife is trying to deal with the fact that our son is being very stereotypically teenage boy. His room needs to be cleaned, he doesn't know how bad he sounds half the time, and is growing so fast he keeps breaking stuff on accident. I've shown her several videos making fun of it, but she's certain it has to be something else.
It's quite hilarious and annoying. I make sure to give him a high five if I ever think he's making a normal mistake before I punish him.
I was talking to my mother about that stage not but a few weeks ago—with a nephew getting close to that. She still doesn’t get it. I was pretty much never into the bad things that you’d think a teen would be up to drinking, smoking, banging, sneaking out. Yet, I was constantly in trouble for some word, tone, or body language had absolutely no idea I was doing until I was already in trouble. Good for at least trying to let him know you have to not do this but I understand you probably didn’t mean to. That would have gone a long way making me not spend those years feeling like the whole world hated me. Especially the early teen years.
I've seen it several kids. They're big talk and love life, and these years make them so quiet and sullen at life.
You're absolutely right, but be very careful: this line of thinking for some other people easily bleeds into "well, this boy played with dolls, so obviously he needs to be chemically castrated".
We did pretty fine with tomboys for centuries without needing to chop their tits off for getting muddy.
My son was obsessed with construction vehicles. He could tell me all the different parts of an excavator and skid steer at two years old.
It's a symbolic act of revenge on men
Had to do a double check to make sure this was not c/positive.
Most wholesome post.
Two nephews and a cousin all close with. It’s so obvious. Cars, dinosaurs, trains, one is kinda over obsessed with smash bros characters. If you ever wanted to know what one would do. I’m less close with the girl cousins, but even the ones that aren’t full pink Barbie are still into a lot more like fantasy stories and things. I know the youngest got into the Narnia books really young somehow. She was more interesting to talk to at 8 than most adults.
Bruh I'm in my 40s and I still look at tractors sometimes daily. Love comparing machinery.
What's a "babu" with flashing lights?
Is it supposed to be an ambulance?
Yes, "bæ-bu" is how a Norwegian would describe the sound of a siren.
Congrats, a tractor-spec nephew is one of the best pulls.
