You would have a hospital full of witnesses that you were indeed the mother to fall back on. That doesn't really go away even if you're completely assured it doesn't matter and that you would never check.
It'd be a sign that your wife is currently seething in jealousy! Your relationship is forever changed whether the test happens or not.
Not really. It could be a phase for her. A momentary lapse in unconditional trust is not a thing that must ruin relationships, and I don't believe in unconditional trust anyway. What, if your husband one day starts giving off every single sign that he's cheating on you, basically everything other than straight up you catching him in the act, you wouldn't be jealous? As the other poster said, in today's world the man's unconditional trust risks him much more than the woman's, besides.
Possibilities:
- Wife suspects, for some reason, that I am unfaithful. I have no way to prove otherwise, she might eventually crank herself up into full seething mode, relationship is changed forever at that point, probably fatally.
- Wife suspects, for some reason, that I am unfaithful. I present her with the fidelity test, at which point she decides her suspicion was baseless. We move on.
- Wife suspects, for some reason, that I am unfaithful. I present her with the fidelity test, but it was never about proof anyway and she continues to disbelieve her lying eyes. Continue as in world 1.
I think most men would love that as an alternative to the wife seething in jealousy for months because she suspects he cheated but neither can prove their side of the argument. I don't think I'd mind at all, and would be delighted to establish the norm of wives periodically demanding such tests in exchange for the norm of husbands demanding paternity tests.
In short: trade offer accepted. Trust but verify, etc etc.
I don't think men who are better than women at what vtubers do exist in sufficient numbers to make it economically viable instead of just hiring women.
There is a plot justification for the android being a little girl:
God of War 2018???
I can't help but notice the irony of a prominent Christian writer deriding "omnipotent moral busybodies", emphasis on the omnipotent.
Does the data about the number of organ transplants per year come from Falun Gong?
I think that kind of attitude is shortsighted.
Consider that you're currently living in a world where red all but won (we are ruled by massive nation-states and corporations that live according to the principle of preserving themselves first and promote people who do that for them), and the percentage of those really willing to take major risks for others is quite low when put to a real test. Conversely, there must be many decent people who would vote red yet aren't complete insufferable psychopaths and egoists (if only because ~45% of voters on a major twitter poll probably aren't completely insufferable).
If you hold people to the standard of them being willing to risk their own life to save yours, you'll likely find yourself disappointed. (Not just risk, in fact - risk implies some measure of the risker's skill and agency mattering - but gamble.)
For all the arguments on how we might not be that much unlike the clankers, I just can't find them interesting. Not when they have no real experience, no memory of note, and everything unique about any particular instance is something I had deliberately prompted.
Who knows, maybe if I could snap human beings into existence on a whim for a chat and delete them when I'm done, I'd think of humans the same way, too.
Remember, the seduction line is not "you'd make a great dad", it's "I want your babies".
The crime example seems to imply the opposite of what you're getting at. Yes, crime is self-destructive, and it appears that the optimal way to deal with crime is to destroy criminals even further, hopefully deterring some, rather than pour the efforts of 50% of society into a vast project of reeducation and reconciliation that gets abused unless it works just right.
There's no person in the world I wouldn't prefer to outlive rather than die. In addition, many of my friends I've polled vote red and they're not that bad to spend the thanos snap apocalypse with.
If Twitter is that close, and assuming that Twitter selects for caving to social pressure and aggressively pro-social signaling, then I don't have high hopes blue wins overall.
Funny thing, I recall that last time this was dropped I was arguing for blue.
I have seen many girls who put "I'm 5'11'', please be taller" in the bio, not a single one who'd put "I'm 5'11'', short kings come here". The dearth of short guys pairing up with taller girls, on face, appears to be entirely by choice of said girls. On the flipside, in spaces where men don't feel like they have to posture for women's (or men's) respect or approval, many state (honestly, I must assume) their desire for tall mommies.
Where do you find guys who say they don't want taller girls?
Being physically fit has value beyond just being higher on the relative scale of attractiveness. Facial shape doesn't appear to have it.
The same reason why when a woman says "it's not you, it's me, I'm just not ready right now", what a dating-savvy man hears is "it's absolutely you".
Oh no. Not the right wing trolls patch! I, a devious left-wing wrecker, could never benefit from flooding the Motte with low-quality right-wing discourse!
Many regulars are indistinguishable from trolls, if their median post was their first they'd be filtered. I say there's nothing wrong with letting in some fresh troll blood.
In gaming it's more like "high-skill players are not entitled to infinite noobs to stomp". Noobs don't like getting stomped, and it doesn't seem to be good for long-term playerbase vitality. High-skill players can always have as high a winrate as they want against bots.
You could do welfare/tax incentives for girl children only.
I mean, even if the top players think smurfing is lame (they are motivated by their competitiveness and do not desire weak opponents), there are still smurfs who are skilled enough to stomp on weak players and driven enough by the desire to simply win, no matter against whom, to do so.
I don't think the metaphor applies to men striving to get women anyway, because most men don't appear to be competitive with other men on this. They want a partner above some baseline level of beauty, and would take several if they can get away with it, but competing with other men is not a motivation. "Trophy wives" only appear to be a male status symbol among the very top elites, who appear to be pathologically driven to competition in as may small ways as possible.
I think when encountering Chad "smurfing" in person, i.e. someone from a high-status environment coming to a lower-status one to fish for girls (or even just coming there without the overt intent to steal mates), men did react with hostility historically. The city boy among the country boys; the student from an elite school among the kids from a merely "decent" one, etc.
Women that are both psychologically and physically fit for a job involving subjugating men through overwhelming violence appear to be very rare, even with guns as the equalizer. I suspect the number of men such a society could control would be too low to do all the hard labor, or else it would be the men in the military who would be the actual slavedrivers.
Unlike the harem world, men probably wouldn't vote for that one.

Ironically, you've done what the critic from Scott's article has done, only in the opposite direction. From your commentary, I expected something monumentally blasphemous, a new Piss Christ. Instead, what I saw was some unremarkable picassoesque scribble.
I can immediately see how this picture could benefit a group of random teenage students. First, you tell them they're about to see an example of evil, horrible anti-human degeneracy. Then, you show them this. They'll be walking out of the gallery with a much better calibrated sense of what evil is, as opposed to what people say it is. And also that if that is what degeneracy is, it is in the end unremarkable and boring, not worth engaging in even for rebellion.
