Can we learn to unlearn aggression?

In summary, the author believes that aggression is a natural response to a perceived threat and that humans cannot totally evolve past resorting to aggressive behaviors. They state that children often use this as a coping mechanism in their first few years, and that men and women should not be placed upon the same scale against each other.

perhaps not if you are talking strictly about physical aggression.

No one seems to be talking about aggression at all, nor is there such thing as intellectual aggression in this context. Please don't make up stuff when there are perfectly good definitions available, especially when they've been posted in-thread.

This thread fails to meet PF standards and will remain locked.
