Hym "Oh, and to answer your other question, it depends to what degree the outcome is determined by biology."
Iam "You had that primed, you had that primed for a while now. Why did you wait so long?"
Hym "Because it's a stupid question. If you dispense with the unconscious choice
there is nothing left but conscious choice. But you acknowledge that there is unconscious choice. So, here is the example: the conscious choice is a 20 year old woman
sleeping with a 60 year
old man because (and explicitly because) he's loaded. That is a conscious articulated choice. Vaguely coincides with evolutionary biology in the context of hypergamy but the act of golddigging is an act of
consciousness rather than a choice solely based on evolutionary biology. Correct? Forgoing some of the elements of hypergamy and making pragmatic choice to maximize monetary gain. Also, does the choice factor in the consciousness of the person being chosen? And to what degree? Does my consciousness matter more than my sexual marketplace value in the context of evolutionary biology and hypergamy? No. I'll answer that one for you. The answer is 'No. It doesn't.' "
