| Mendicate Bias said: Actually its called evolution and has been the driving force for all life for the last couple billion years. It has nothing to do with cultural indoctrination and everything to do with how our brains have been programmed through evolution to perceive those that are your close relatives. Evolution makes us to try to pass on as many genes of ourselves as we can. |
One of the most idiotic things people tend to do nowadays is attribute cultural things to evolution. Our brains cannot percieve those that are our close relatives, as we won't know if someone is related to us or not, unless we're told that. Actually the entire concept of "relative" is cultural. People may be predisposed to become attatched to the ones who raise them, and vice versa, however it's irrelevant whether they're blood relatives or not.
The whole aversion towards adoption thing is simply a cultural stigma.
