Example text
When sex first arrived on the evolutionary scene, these were identical; the gametes (as sex cells are called) were isogamous. There was no male and female because you could not tell them apart to so label them. Inevitably, though, ever so slight differences would emerge. One would be fractionally larger than the other: they became anisogamous. And once there was anisogamy, differences polarised, because there were advantages and disadvantages of being either the small or the large gamete that so-called ‘selfish DNA’ within the one or the other exploited to preserve the ‘interests’ of one gamete or the other after they fused in what is then called the zygote.
As Dawkins might say, resources are part of the male’s ‘extended phenotype’. There is no evidence to suppose that we are different from animals in that a male’s rank in the male dominance hierarchy is central to female mate choice. The reason that a male instinctively starts vying with his same-sex peers from when he is a toddler is for the very purpose of calibrating to what extent he will be able to reproduce. That women may be interested in him if he is the winner in a male–male contest is no mere by-product: it’s the very thing he is competing for.
Social work is perhaps the pivotal area, because the staff here are at the interface between government, academia and people in families. This is not some articulate and powerful elite but mostly ordinary lowly professionals. The dire situation in social services has been documented from the inside by Ken McLaughlin (McLaughlin, 2004): Mirroring the demise of the political left, social work’s move from a macro to a micro critique of social power meant that more and more attention was being paid to interpersonal relations.
