My teacher said this, is he correct?

Men harassing, sexually harassing, sexually assaulting and raping women is completely normal male behaviour. Male animals often sexually harass, rape and force themselves on female animals. Humans are animals too. It may be a sad reality for the women but we can't do anything about it. It is just nature being nature. Nature is very beneficial for its male gender.

He would start saying sexually suggestive things while talking to a male student, and if the male student doesn't understand what he said/doesn't support him, he would say, Seems that this boy hasn't become his normal self yet. He hasn't started the normal behaviour of harassing females. Say boy, why are you abnormal like this? You should become normal like us. Don't worry, I am sure that you will be normal soon.

He also often makes sexual comments like, 'When I see the girls eating a banana, I imagine that they are sucking the private part of a boy~' Girls get uncomfortable by that and look down, while some boys laugh loudly at his joke. If it is important, the teacher is unmarried, 35 years old.

  • About this:
    "Men harassing, sexually harassing, sexually assaulting and raping women is completely normal male behaviour. Male animals often sexually harass, rape and force themselves on female animals. Humans are animals too."

    Yes, he is correct - in a sense. I'll summarize what he said as this: Male animals are instinctively sexually greedy. Whenever they can, they will copulate or or take action that may lead to copulation.

    That may describe male instincts, but that's no excuse for such behavior and not a permission slip to do so.

    About this:

    "It may be a sad reality for the women but we can't do anything about it. It is just nature being nature. Nature is very beneficial for its male gender."

    That's horseshit across the board.
    Women can't alter male instincts directly.
    And "nature" is most certainly "correctable" in a sense.
    Let me explain with 3 examples:

    1. All animals have emotions and emotions cause a "weighing" of different objectives. The pleasure from raping or sexually assaulting a woman is compared against the pain from punishment if caught. So, just because a man can rape does not mean he will. Same reason why we don't kill people who so obviously deserve it.

    2. With that in mind, the #1 reason why males don't rape may be prison, but, instinctively, it's another reason - the gang of males who are in the victim's family who will hunt him down and kill him. This is part of the social compact among humans going back to dawn of our species. And that's instinctive too in humans.

    3. And, perhaps this is the most interesting, but first I will echo what you wrote:

    "Nature is very beneficial for its male gender."

    That's false. In reality, it is females who benefit more than we do. This is because females are more selective than males when it comes to mate selection for reproduction. This is because ova are rare, while sperm are practically infinite. So, from Nature's perspective, the role of males is to enhance genetic diversity of a species by fucking as many different females as possible. BUT, it is the females who have the real power because, outside of pregnancy from rape, they are the ones who select which males will get to reproduce... they select which males get to have their traits passed to the next generation.

    Males are responsible for genetic diversity and thus species robustness.
    But FEMALES are the true architects of what a species will become.

    Bottomline:
    Men are exactly what women designed them to be by their selection of men to mate with over evolutionary time. Women got what they wanted in a sense - They wanted bigger, stronger, smarter men who'd protect her and the kids and make bigger healthier kids for the next generation. Net result: Women are as safe as they can be: Men have conquered Planet Earth for them and no other species is a major threat to us and we are getting better and better at protecting ourselves from Nature. If only we could protect ourselves from ourselves. This is why, in the long run, women will become the dominant sex in a way. The job of males that women designed us for is almost over - we conquered. But women are better administrators - they run things better. So, for our survival, women will gradually be taking over and employ us as needed - finding new and improved ways of protecting humans from Nature's threats.

    So, "Nature is very beneficial for its female gender."

    • This is the best response I received until now.

    • I want to add a thought that I didn't really complete. Women cannot directly alter male instinct. But they can INDIRECTLY do so - through evolution via mate selection. Whom women chose to mate with causes changes in the instincts of males over evolutionary time.

  • There is some truth to this, but it's not the whole story.

    So, humans have had "civilization" for around 8-10,000 years, but we've been around for much longer, and before homo sapiens were other earlier humanoids. Pre-civilization, it was common to "steal" women from other tribes, or to take as wives widows after battles, and sex was often like what we'd see as rape today. That instinct is in all of us - that part is true.

    But it's also true that we've had civilization for a long time, and while there have always been parts of the world that lacked civilization, and there have always been a small percentage of the population that rejected civilization, the vast majority of men for the last, say, several thousand years, were advanced enough to control their instincts with higher reasoning, which is why men passed laws against rape and forced marriage and so on.

    Your teacher isn't technically incorrect, but by only telling half the story, he's pushing an agenda rather than teaching truth.

    • It is still common today. If there is a way and no one preventing this, some males would do this. Just look at ISIS, they did captured women and so on. It depends on the culture

    • @RyanK9 Obviously that's true, and I said as such - but there have been fairly advanced and refined cultures going back to Sumer and ancient Egypt, 6000-8000 years ago, and while obviously those cultures didn't cover the whole world by any stretch, advanced culture did at least exist then. And the majority of the population today lives in places where rape is illegal, and those laws were passed almost exclusively by men. So, yes, the underlying instinct is there, but most cultures have established rules to condemn it and to punish those who do it anyway. Such laws wouldn't exist if it were not reasonably possible for our higher reasoning to control our base instincts.

    • India has the death penalty for rape if I remember correctly. Still it's one of the country's with the highest rapes. Law didn't change much, progression in intelligence/education does. The society in India is a mess.

  • WTF... yeah he's wrong what a dumbass... humans unlike any other species are given brains that have an advanced capacity for learn and obtain knowledge and learn proper behaviors. We are not savages... we don't only act on our carnal instincts and selves... if we did... nothing in this world would exist to the capacity it does.

  • Your teacher said that and still has his job?

  • He is correct that rape is 'normal' in the animal kingdom (Dolphins, Chimps, and a host of other mammals), but that does NOT go anyway to excusing it in humans, and please don't think I'm condoning it!
    I can never remember whether it was Katherine Hepburn or Audrey Hepburn in the old movie 'The African Queen', who said "Human nature is something we were put here to rise above", and I think that nails it beautifully.

  • Sexual assault, harassment and rape are in no manner normal. Many animals have been observed to commit these acts and yes, we are also in a certain way animals. But humans are an evolving species, we have more sense, intelligence and knowledge than animals. In no way is these acts normal in our society. Men can be jerks and when they commit these crimes it makes them lesser than any animal. Because we have evolved for millions of years and have acquired more intelligence yet men commit these crimes. Your teacher is just selective to males and has an egoistical behavior toward his own gender, he lives in his own world thinking that male are the best, but he doesn't realize that while acting this way he is just reverting back to animal stage. Your teacher is very very wrong.

  • No where on Earth is that considered a normal behaviour. If your teacher actually said that, he's a very disturbed man.

  • Unlike animals , Humans have the power to think , control their urges , be civilized and communicate.

    no animal can make structures , technologies and civilisations as humans have.

    Tell your professor that the male mantis is eaten alive while having sex , so he should follow the lead

    • You should report him as well. As a possible sexual predator

  • Didn't know an animal could be a teacher.

  • I think many students in your class would agree to remove him from school so just go together with following students and Complaint the principal about his behavior.

  • This isn't wild lol, and we don't value physical supirioty (if it actually exists) much these days...

  • No!!!

    get this guy fired

  • This is horrible to tell students and no man should and no male animal
    should be known to rape its victim.. No, it's not normal behavior from a
    human make or an animal male.. Maybe your teacher needs his balls cut off?

  • Nope he is retarded as fuck

  • He is corect, but even if human is an animal si the only animal who can make diference bethuin good and bad, right an wrong.
    We have ration and whit that we can force our self some control.
    A question for the teacher.
    If human is olso an animat that in that situation make only what is natural, is human still diferent from animal? More superior?

  • Technically he is right. The only thing that prevents this is the evolution of society.
    Last occurrence was in Syria with ISIS

    But the additional behavior of the teacher worries me. It seems he got a psych damage from something.

  • he's wrong. Normal humans can make rational decisions that do not harm others mentally or physically.

    • Report him

  • Well, it's more complicated than simply "he is right" or "he is wrong." I'm sure you've paraphrased what he actually said as well, in order to make a concise statement. The truth is, yes, he's correct, but then it needs to immediately be followed with a "but." As in, "he's correct, but even though humans are animals, we are animals that are intelligent enough to recognize the suffering of other member of our species, which is why we basically all agree that pain is bad, since when WE feel pain it's bad, so to cause emotional and possibly physical pain by sexually assaulting or harassing behavior toward females is still something that we need to recognize is an instinct that needs to be overridden, even though sometimes we may not want to."

  • In the "non-human" animal kingdom, there are many different mating rituals. Some involve aggressive force against other males to "win" the female, and sometimes there's aggression involving the female. We are "human animals" with a higher level of brain function (at least for about 40-50% of us!) and those sort of rituals are long past and unnecessary.

    He's just trying to the animal kingdom's behaviors to justify human behaviors, and it doesn't work. It may sound valid here and there, but it's not a justifiable explanation.

  • Our president agrees with this.

  • Without addressing the updates... I think he is correct. Men are naturally sexually aggressive. If they weren't we wouldn't be here today. It's a survival mechanism.

    But the important part is just because that may be true doesn't mean that it is acceptable for men to behave like that. We have a thing called society and it is sociologically unacceptable in our current society for men to do things like this. So men are expected to restrain themselves. Most do. But some are unable to control their natural instincts and hence sexual assault has always been with us and always will be.

  • But we are supposed to be human not animals.
    Animals act out of instinct, admittedly some guys treat women as if they are animals
    They are there for the taking. The cure for a mad dog is to shoot it

  • If this is true then report him otherwise you're trolling

    • I am not trolling.
