On Our Two Sexes

   Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) lived his life in 19th-century Germany. Although his thoughts and philosophy is very hard for us who lives in 21th-century Japan, and it is too dense to understand, recently I found an interesting verse delivered by Zarathustra (1885), "The happiness of man is, 'I will.' The happiness of woman is, 'He will'" (p. 1174 in Kinddle). 
  
   This line has apparently been understood as a controversy of men's (or his) insolubility in women, which I do not like to participate here. In addition, the snap judgment of his would be subject to criticism from feminist theory and politicalization in many ways than one. Incidentally, however, there is no denial of interpreting this idea from the point of view of natural science.

   Male sex drives. The strength of man comes from his weakness, want. Further, men simply believe that hiding their weakness must lead to their own happiness. Therefore, men's happiness is not caused by their strength. Without wanting, we are vacant.    

   Contrary, women seem to be weak because of their strategy of seeking fulfillment. The strength on the side of fullness is extensively boundless and vast, as is often metaphorically spoken with sea and ground. Therefore, women's happiness is not attributed to their consciousness; it is influenced by their vast unconsciousness which might operate as what determines whether they can soluble to men or not.

   Living in an age of natural and environmental life, two sexes of man and woman have never cease to cover for each other's weakness as a complementary pair with a principle of sustaining our life. On second thoughts, it reminds us of the analogical combination of "figure and ground" to the gestalt perception, what men and women are to the biological human life history over time.  

   Men say, "I love you." And woman reply, "You love me." Then both are able to live happily.  It is still quite right to say so, I guess.    ao

On romance and love

   Mother was not allowed to go to high school when she was young. Subsequently, she allowed me and Key, my sister, to read the world collected works of literature for children. Despite the early days of Japanese tempting  mangas and animation films (mostly for TV, somehow under the influence of American pop culture), we deeply owed much to her grittiness to get opportunities for world great pieces. Without many experiences about romance or love, with what little subjective idea of friendship and persistence, those thoughtful and sophisticated fictions have surely expanded our world dramatically, and they turn over time, more and more, appropriate .    I learned years later that Stendhal (1783-1842) had addressed the issue of life and love in France shortly after the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte. Stendhal said that, I believe it now too, women are braver than the bravest men, which is followed by this below: Only they [women] must have a man to be in ...
KARA'S TEAR REVIEWED Kara was an anomalistic artificial intelligence which emitted a desire to survive. Yet, in the real world (2019), nothing is evidenced whether the machines' feeling, as well as animals, is authentic. Having seen this exquisite short film (2012) again, my interest is not in ‘AIs’ that will sooner or later threat us but in the human who will no wonder do an impact exactly when the Wreck Havoc occurs.       Men tend to think AIs with IC tips are a threat (like humanoids) because they will become wiser than us in the near future. Contrary, the more realistic tipping point might be in our brain (e.g.,    right temporoparietal junction, rTPJ): the human social skill, shortly, our fallacious compassion for AIs. How many people will soon become more compassionate being against the increasing ‘AIs,’ as of that in the censor in this short film?    The truth is, Japan has already witnessed many such cases in elderly welfa...

Quality of Life

   Quality of life (QOL) is often discussed to proclaim the quality of mundane opportunity for the physically challenged people such as the blind and/or deaf. It tells us that those who don't inherently see or hear will nonetheless live their life to the same (or even more) extent as most of the others do. However, this idea sheds light upon a more general question of how to think about your origins and encounters: that is, the question of your own interpretation about circumstantial perception and behavior.    Parents spending money for their kid's academic motivation, for example, would probably run against a later glitch, hearing, "It won't pay for God's sake!" When he or she grew up in the college, a pretension of belief that you pay for academic achievement to deserve it is in turn brandished. The thinking runs gradually dry and eventually halts just at the moment of paying tuition. One explanation of this is that the non-creative consumptive society ...
