Realistic breakdown: Quote: |
Her motives, according to the experts, are self-serving and built firmly into her evolutionary psyche.
| Self-serving? no, surely not!  Quote: |
Seemingly innocent comments such as 'He's got his father's eyes' or 'She's got her daddy's hair' are in fact a concerted, if subconscious, effort by a mother to convince their partner that he really is the father.
| Subconscious? Try consciously contrived. Quote: |
Scientists who conducted the research believe the female strategy has evolved over time to allay male anxiety about paternity. If a father is reassured that the child looks just like him, it makes him fatherly and more prepared to look after both infant and mother, they conclude.
| Most certainly a "machiavellian" strategy. Quote: |
The report says: 'We found that mothers claim a paternal resemblance at birth that does not correspond to the actual resemblance, suggesting possible manipulation of the perception of facial resemblance to increase confidence of paternity.'
| Possible manipulation? Unequivocally so.
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
