This and your comment upthread read like a textbook example of the naturalistic fallacy. The environment that produced your apparent masculine ideal was not permanent, nor was all of what it produced ideally suited to it.

If you really believe in naturalism, you believe that bacteria and insects are (presently) ideal forms of life. However, I suspect you do not believe this, and are instead arguing from an untestable value based position, as nearly everyone in this discussion is.

I am not a naturalist. I simply believe that the industral revolution and its consequequences have been a disaster for the human race.
