We need transhumanism to end the libido gap between men and women.
What is the libido gap? Simply put, it is the difference between the way that most men approach sexuality, and the way that most women approach sexuality. Men are opportunistic while women are selective.
This mismatch of supply and demand is at the root of so very many societal problems, for both sexes. Almost everything that feminism complains about (women receiving crude and unwanted sexual attention)-- and everything that the manosphere or incels complain about (men being held to impossible standards)-- can be traced back to this dynamic-- and it is mutually unfair for both sexes.
Everyone can agree that we would be better off if we could somehow change it. But this dynamic goes deeper than mere social conditioning; it's found throughout the animal kingdom in one form or another, because it is deeply rooted in biological incentives.
So let's change the biological incentives. Let's figure out a way to adjust hormone production so that men and women's brains no longer work differently, and thus conflict no longer constantly arises between them. If need be, we can give men and women the same level of height and strength, so that sexual assault is no longer a gender-specific fear, and therefore would not lead to men and women behaving differently in a dating environment.
The possibilities are endless. There is no reason not to pursue this course of action other than the fear of change or some mystical, long-debunked notions about how society can only function if one sex is subservient to the other.
