Attributes more noticeable in human females - intelligence, compassion and forbearance - seem necessary if humans are to have a long-term future.

But male-dominated science can still be foolish, considering only gross results of actions. You know the sort of thing - "A man's genes will allow him to rescue his brother from a river because they have 50% of their genes in common but will not allow saving a cousin because they share only 12.5% of their genes".

This false and crude approach completely fails to consider the effects of society's views of actions, for we humans are social and co-operative. Heroic and self-sacrificing actions are most often performed because heroes are respected and admired.

The altruist hero, male or female, comes in for an increased number of mating opportunities, sometimes clandestine. And because society and the altruist both benefit, there is continuing positive feedback in favor of altruism. Hence, in part, the genetic advantage of unselfishness.

Conversely, selfish / greedy actions hurt all communities - modern and primitive alike. We turn against selfish people: a man who will let your children starve is not your friend. He is also seen as likely to get pleasure or profit from pain inflicted on others. For such complex reasons the selfish do not get genuine mating invitations and the resulting negative feedback decreases greed and violence. Hence, in part, the genetic disadvantage of selfishness. ⁵⁰

Nature wins out eventually. We do not see the direct descendants of Khans or Caesars or numberless petty kings ruling us today, because even a few generations of relative privilege has a sad effect on humans, as it does in other species. It is not long before they seem cold, ugly or greedy compared to normal evolving humanity.

Note: all over the world ruling elites - even today - behave ⁵¹ in ways that normal humans think of as disgustingly cold, brutal and inhuman. ^{52 53 & 54 & 55 & 56 & 57}

[ An indicated side effect of the cold emotional environment of privileged breeding - prearranged marriages to preserve wealth and power - is the offspring becoming alienated and/or misogynist, often unable to mate ⁵⁴ normally* see Note below ]

At times these transformations happen spectacularly in the next few generations. Most of us can name rulers, political or otherwise, who have produced grotesquely selfish or stupid offspring. And these effects are multiplied when further privileged breeding takes place.

* Note : The "English Disease" of the last two centuries refers to the behavior of English aristocrats, ⁵⁸ despised in Europe [where English elite traveled extensively] for their sexual abuse ⁵⁹ of children.

Many elites descend into that perversion: exploitation of the helpless ⁵⁴ - which is the goal mind-set of the power-freak or tyrant - is also the mind-set of the pedophile, pederast or "paedophile".

("Pedophile" is actually an intentional misnomer; only a parent can be a true "child-lover")

Note 2 "PEDOPHILE" PERVERTS ARE PREVALENT IN THOSE CONDITIONED ^{59 & 54} TO SEE THEMSELVES AS SOMEHOW "SUPERIOR" - ROYALS, and ARISTOCRATS, JUDGES, MAGISTRATES, POLICE-CHIEFS, and ACADEMICS, CHURCHMEN, BUREAUCRATS and POLITICIANS] ^{52 & 59}

And all societies suffer from this passing evil. see below*
In Britain and Western Europe (where more data are available), we see that organised pederasts are predominantly from the professional elites ⁵⁹ - senior judges, attorneys, police and security officials (secret police), politicians, diplomats, academics and churchmen.

This explains the evidence of continuing sexual abuse of children and young people in Britain, Europe and the US. In all State and Church organisations criminal perverts are found in positions of power, ⁵⁹ because perverts have the strongest motivation to achieve that power. ⁵⁰⁰

Third World's oppressive regimes and poverty means their children are easy victims of Western elites' child-abusers whose wealth and position give them power over children, first in Africa and now in the Far East. ⁵⁰¹

Rape & pedophilia are 'passing evils'.
From Elaine Morgan's work ⁵⁰² and other analysis ⁵⁰³
conclude they were impossible at earlier times and will again be impossible in the future.
A self-conscious being commits 'evil' by selfishly harming another, and so breaking taboos. ⁵⁰⁵
The A.S. principle says selfish 'evil' is the route to extinction.

It is clear that power elites and establishments are more primitive than the main population, treating people [and animals] with cruelty, bullying, abuse, degradation and slaughter.
