2 teams, M / F separated on an island. The men: - hunted crocodile - caught fish - made fire - even had the luxury of playing baseball. The women: - cried - were unable to fish, hunt, or light a fire - had repetitive clashes (twitter.com)

Whenever this experiment is done, the result is always the same. I remember they had to cancel it once and team balance the men and women, and all the progress the men had. even making was stymied because when women were reintroduced, the women demanded they be given a say despite proving they were hopelessly unqualified.

I watched a streamer talk about this or a similar show. He's a brit and a lib but even he was, politely as possible, describing the situation where the men were clearly superior to women in every way and even the weakest link in the men's group eventually came up with a solution so brilliant it solved their food need so much they had a never ending surplus of food.

Yeah, the male weakest link was the guy who saw a discarded, ripped-up, broken trolling net wash ashore alongside other flotsam, and invested excessive time and effort into repairing it and refitting it into a manual fishing net. Took him several days of dedicated effort, where he wasn't being productive anywhere else.

The other guys heckled him over his obsessing about it, but they were smart enough to realize that if his hackneyed plan DID work, they were golden, so it was worth the cost to try. And then it worked.

The "deadweight" on the men's team was something akin to an inventor or a gambler: No guaranteed result, but everyone could see that they were trying to hit a jackpot making something. The others saw the situation, and judged it as alright to attempt.

The "deadweight" on the women's team cried that the water wouldn't psionically levitate into her mouth without effort on her part, and that no magical food fairies were feeding and providing for her. And the others saw the situation, and judged it as alright to attempt.

Yep, it was exactly that.

This experiment's been run at least two or three times now, always the same result.

What pissed me off is how much bear grylls denied giving the girls multiple handicaps. Oh yeah a random soda bottle will just wash up when they're thirsty, or wild pigs will just come up to them when they're starving.

Fuck off with that shit.

A "passing fisherman" also gave them a ton of supplies. A passing fisherman. On an empty island. Freely gave them a ton of supplies, far more than you'd normally even carry on a fishing vessel.

The guy got famous by making a fake survival show, so it shouldn't be a surprise that he's still a phony.

I prefer his more genuine counterparts, Wolf Stir Fry, Cheetah Broil and Clam Bake.

There really was a guy around the same time who had a show where he went into the woods alone with a camera, a tripod, and a knife. Les something? But for some reason he never got as famous as the guy who brought a whole production crew and slept in hotels when the cameras were off.

Survivorman. In Canada he's more famous than Bear Grylls, but I guess not the rest of the world.

I understand your irritation but if the show ended after three days it's not much of a show, so I can also understand that bear is trying to make money off the show..

He was hoping to get like 4 weeks of footage and the women couldn't even boil water.

One of them could.

The other women kicked her out of their group because she was oppressing them with her competence.

Medieval foids knew how to cook, sew, clean, even treat a wound

Modern foids are completely useless (like nigger tier useless) in comparison

The latest retard feminist cope is "oh these are all staged". They'll never accept biological realities.
