In this blog post, we will look at how altruistic people have survived from an evolutionary perspective through the theory of group selection.   The term “pushover” is often used figuratively to describe someone who is naive and easy to take advantage of. People who do all the work in group projects or who naively give away the money they earned through hard work are what we call pushovers...

In this blog post, I will examine the culture of respect in English-speaking countries and the meaning behind the expression “Ladies and Gentlemen” based on my experiences abroad.   The expression “Ladies and Gentlemen” is often heard in movies and foreign media. Until now, I had accepted this expression without any special meaning and sometimes used it as a greeting. However, several...

In this blog post, we will examine whether the technology to build houses with 3D printers is actually possible, how it can be implemented, and what its limitations and possibilities are.   Even if you don’t know much about 3D printers, you’ve probably heard of them. 3D printers have been widely reported in the media and have become a hot topic. While conventional printers...

In this blog post, we will examine the role and importance of modeling and rendering techniques in maximizing realism in 3D animation and analyze how they enhance visual perfection.   Recent 3D animations give the impression of being filmed in real life thanks to their detailed three-dimensional images. This realism goes beyond simple technological advances and plays a major role in...

In this blog post, we critically examine whether rape is a product of adaptation from the perspective of evolutionary psychology.   According to Charles Darwin, living organisms have evolved through a process of natural selection, resulting in the diverse biological forms and characteristics we see today. Natural selection refers to the process by which organisms undergo morphological or...

In this blog post, we will examine whether animal cooperative behavior is instinctive or a survival strategy designed by genes.   Darwin presented the revolutionary theory of evolution to the academic world in his book On the Origin of Species. Since then, numerous scholars have studied evolutionary theory and expanded upon it through various experiments and theoretical discussions. As a...

In this blog post, we take an interesting look at the social impact of altruism and selfishness through the theory of birds of a feather flock together.   When watching TV, we often see businesspeople who have embezzled huge sums of money receiving only light punishments and continuing to live luxurious lives. On the other hand, altruistic people who care for and help others often seem to...

In this blog post, we explore the causes of rape across cultures from the perspective that rape may not be mere violence, but an evolutionary instinct.   Is rape an adaptation? Before addressing this issue, the following must be understood. By arguing that rape is an adaptation and natural selection, I am not claiming that rape is a rational or legal act. This is because even if the...

In this blog post, we will examine why religion still has influence in the long-standing conflict between evolution and creationism, and the scientific validity of intelligent design.   Evolution and creationism have been in conflict for a long time, since Darwin first proposed the theory of evolution 150 years ago. The emergence of evolution was a huge shock to both the scientific and...

In this blog post, we will look at rape from the perspective of evolutionary adaptation and explore the conflict between ethics and instinct.   Most people have heard of the term “evolution,” but few understand it well. Some believe it to be a theory that competes with creationism in explaining the origin of life, and it is common to hear parents tell their children, “That monkey is our...
