#1 According to the government's population census, females make up 52 percent of the total population, but NGOs place the percentage of females in the population closer to 60 percent.

Why the imbalance?

#2 Why the imbalance?

Testosterone poisoning.

#3 I imagine a significant number of Paki men remove themselves from the population by going Jihad and ending up as worm food in Afghanistan.

#4 Why the imbalance?

Exploding Jihadi Syndrome.

In any case, aren't the men allowed four pieces of property, uh, sorry, I meant wives, in Islam? So why would an imbalance like this be a problem?

#5 ..I vaguely recall that in order to have a gaggle the owner must be able to provide for the group. Since most males in the region can't really afford to support one, it puts a brake on multiple ownership. Islam lacking a means of 'reform' hasn't come up with the Western version of serial polygamy and polyandry to accommodate the less than wealthy.

#6 Here's an interesting theoretical.

In mammals, about halfway through gestation, the testes of male fetuses emit a squirt of testosterone that travels to its brain and tells it, it is a male brain. Otherwise, the brain is female by default. This distinguishes the animals gender behavior.

In animals, this generally also determines sexuality. But humans are more complex, so errors in the process result in feminine personality males and masculine personality females, but with normal sexual attraction.

This has been known since the 1960s.

Importantly, there are some powerful chemicals found in the third world that can definitely interfere with this squirt of testosterone in males, or mimic the chemical effects of testosterone in female brains.

In the west, this is no problem, because sexual attraction is unchanged. But in a place like Pakistan, with intense sexual inhibition, it might theoretically lead to a major jump in homosexual attraction.

That is, because of feminization, males don't want to be macho and dominant over females; and females reject obnoxious males entirely.

A weak theory, but you never know.

#7 Here's an interesting theoretical.

Thank you Moosey, a good read and possible good theory. Thanks for taking credit. Srsly. That's how you do it. If it's your idea, your story or your concept say it, write it, do it!

You're a good guy and smart, take credit for your ideas. Some are nuts (like the giant chicken theory) but some aren't.

I'll be watching.

Knock off harassing other posters. We don't do that here. You have a point to make about the news item, make it.

First, last, only warning.

#9 That is, because of feminization, males don't want to be macho and dominant over females; and females reject obnoxious males entirely.

In a society where children have no say in who they marry, neither male feminization nor female rejection thereof have any evolutionary impact. In a society where women have no power, men have no restraint on the gender-free impulse to bully.

#10 In discussing Imperial Chinese culture, years and years ago, Sinologist Robert van Gulik noted that "sapphism" was common among women in polygamous families and among prostitutes. Between the brutality of some of the mothers-in-law toward the younger women, and the degrading way men treated women in that culture, the younger women turned to each other for comfort in many different ways, including sexual.

#11 lesbian sex is hot... when it doesn't look like John Goodman making out with Rex Ryan.

#12 seems like alot of women in the US hate men , so I guess this too be true in any Islamic country where the women really are regarded as property. Not really a question as too why they would turn to each other.
