Allusions In The Matrix

Does size? Go if you care!

was sure, but I wanted evidence, conclusive data. In fact, I received the news of New Scientist with a period of apathy, no more than a gesture of confirmation phlegmatic. "Of course! I thought, I could not be otherwise ... "

I mean, pardon the article oblivion Mating system and brain size in bats , published in the prestigious" I suppose Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences , showing everything can be shown convincingly that these things, that a large brain is associated with a small testicles, and vice versa.

¿¿¿........!!!
Well, yes, it is true, the discovery has occurred in bats, not humans, but if it is little difference between the genomes of man and fly, what can we expect the genome of the bat, a mammal attributes as gifted as the best of them ("have something to do with" fly cojonera ? "I do not know ..., I think I'm rolling.) We is not anything to look beyond differences for a take away these genes.

Rewriting history

The substance is that after a thorough study of 334 species of bats, scientists have observed that in species where females are promiscuous, males have developed large testes, but they have small brains and that in species where females are monogamous, the situation is reversed.

What can result from this discovery? For some, that a monogamous relationship is more demanding for the brain (perhaps requires more imagination.) For others, the testes grow when there is high demand for semen.

But I believe that this relationship of inverse proportionality between the size of the brain and the testes is very significant. In the final analysis, it is an empirical law that connects the two bodies, brain and testes, which have marked almost all critical milestones in the evolution of humanity. Just take a look at our history to understand that these bodies have been alternating in the strategic direction of the world, always, of course, with an overwhelming dominance of the testicles.

A relief for more than one

Remember the joke about Bill Gates (Gates Bili for friends)? Is your wedding night? Yes, when naked before his wife and she says, bowlegged:

Honey! Now I understand why the name of your company:

MICRO ... And SOFT!

But now, after reading this research, could have a different ending for the situation, much more advantageous for Gates, not for his wife:


Honey ... Never would have thought you were so ... So smart!

And it only responded to expressions of envy - Type " lot of muscle, little brain " - now acquired an air of science.

Testes and brain are direct competitors. It appears that the brain tissue and sperm cells require a lot of metabolic energy and compete for it, leading to a preference for development of a body against the other. Something like "use body makes."

other words, taking this to the end it appears that intelligence tends to be greatest when the testes tend ... Zero! No, if in the end be true that God can only be women.
