Are male-female seggregated societies unnatural/ oppressive or are heterosexual ones?

Question

In mammals the original lifestyle consists of totally seggregated male and female spaces as represented by one of the oldest mammals ----- the elephants.

Mammals have no social pressures to do so. Males and females instinctively prefer that.

It is the same-sex sexual bonds that keep these male-only/ female only spaces strong and livable.

However, some males (around 5%) are exclusively 'heterosexual' (sic) & they need to live with females. Since they can't they become loners (as in elephants).

But, in species (such as horses or lions) where the females become weak (due to weakened same-sex bonds) these 5% males + 7% to 10% others who are predominantly so-called 'heterosexual', control these female spaces as harems.

That's the only heterosexual space that we know of in the natural mammalian setting (including tribal humans).

Males, especially love and need their male-only spaces. Destroying these spaces by heterosexualising them is the bigggest but unacknowledged.......

.....and thus invisible oppression of men.

Heterosexual human social spaces are the root of all major social problems including the visible oppression of woemn and the invisible oppression of men.

E.g. when a male is forced (by psycho-social pressures) to marry and live with a woman, which is against the core of his nature, he may take out his frustration on the woman through violence (because she's weak physically).

Male spaces ------ whether in humans or animals can be heterosexualised only after males have been sufficiently weakened/ demasculated by breaking them from each other ------ as in the west.

Heterosexual spaces are unnatural and oppressive both for men and women, but in the present situation, especially for men.

What do you think?

Answer 2

My first take on your question is that you are confusing the term "homosexual" with "homosocial." To enjoy the social company of other males most of the time is not homosexual; it is homosocial. I would say quite frankly that most human males are homosocial, even though they live largely in the company of the opposite sex.

(A homosexual guy or gal can be homosocial, heterosocial or bisocial, as can a person of any other sexual orientation.)

Having said that, sex-segregated societies and groups can be very validating since so many members of ones own gender are readiliy available to talk to, to confide in, and to do activities with on a regular basis. I think this is especially true for men -- in the armed services, in sports, in sex-segregated dorms and such and even in religious orders. For some men, even working on the job around largely male coworkers can be validating to their masculinity (We don't always have to live separately from women to have our masculinity validated; men can get that same benefit by interacting with men outside of the home.)

Its an extremely, very exciting argument. And in many approaches, I agree. it may be stated that adult males have been weakened by the enforcement of residing with a making their existence with a girl. It frequently strips him of maximum of his maximum constructive 'male' features...and is compelled to conform to existence with the female and his offspring. there are various, inspite of the undeniable fact that, who might understand this as an evolutionary circulate...that adult males have become greater stepped forward socially...that's extra significant than the person-friendly male instincts in our society on the instant. now no longer does he could pass out and search out dinner...yet he does could discover ways to play severe high quality with the others interior the workplace with a view to convey domicile a paycheck so he can purchase dinner for his relatives.

Answer 4

I'm a little lost. What does separating/keeping together males and females in social groups have to do with whether one is sexually straight or gay?
