Arghh again, I was just reviewing, previewing, what I'd writ an hit continue so this post got split in the middle. Maybe a little break is "a good thing,"?

so where was i?

Where this is going- that's where I was.

We are all more or less aware of the impulse of socialization to control all sexual expression.
These externalized and internalized impulses exert their influence upon reproduction, eroticism and mate selection.
So it's redundant to say it but, selection influences selection. It's called feedback.
Feedback makes musical instruments loud, peacocks feathered, alpha waves, markets jump and drive. It's a great subject.
This particular feedback, with a little help from the weather, made human brains bigger than they really needed to be.
Homo-habilis was not an unsuccesfull species.

But then, dependence has also been expanded.
(Is that your mother calling?)
There are two definite levels where this is experienced or evidenced, the level of individual experience and development and the level of species development and evolution. (H. in particular but not exclusively.)
The human intellect has evolved around the dual socializing influences of sexual selection and behavioral dependence. More than just evolved around, it has been evolved by, from, and with the influence of socialization as selection and dependence as drive.
