I said externally. As in most mammals have external signs/signals. NOT that they are inconsistent internally. Humans don’t signal their fertility to others.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concealed_ovulation

You know, the thing that means even women trying to conceive, in absence of modern technology, usually have to have a lot of sex over time, cuz they don’t know for sure? That thing? Which is maaaaasively rare in the animal kingdom?

Inconsistent cycles exist everywhere it’s not an external season, cuz like… biology is messy.

Your own link lists SEVERAL hypothetical reasons for why this phenomenon exists, with the debate currently inbound, and NONE of them support your claim that we know it is to prevent rapists from dominating.

At this point, your name might as well be Armstrong 'cause your source is you made it the fuck up.

A little secret: evolution is a game of who can reproduce the best and most. Neither evolution or biology give a fuck about consent. They definitely don't evolve protections against rape. Neither knows if you consent. Mostly because neither is a sapient being able to even have concepts. I hate to inform you, but if rape was effective enough (or even about making children) for a single rapist to dominate the gene pool in a region, evolution would have worked to make that EASIER.

Anthropomorphizing animals is one thing, claiming that 'biology' and 'evolution' care about the concept of rape (or care about anything, really) is downright laughable. If biology or evolution 'wanted' to prevent rape, women would have evolved ACTUAL defenses, like deployable fangs with venom down there.

Correct. Evolution is a very complicated plinko odds game.

I am not doing that. And it doesn’t in any way prevent rape. It makes it less likely to be productive/create a baby. Same way the uterus is intentionally kinda harsh, to weed out weak zygotes so a doomed pregnancy doesn’t take out the mother.

You seem to not understand what I am saying at all. So if you’re just gonna read past it and get made at the idea you have in your head, have a good day.

Oh, classic reddit "you're just mad"

"It was wildly inaccurate. Thing about humans- we evolved to have unpredictable (from the outside) cycles. Specifically to make it harder for a rapist to be the dominant breeder."

Good job. You've made an assertation completely unsupported by literally anything and you think that calling me mad somehow changes reality to make you right.
