The concern of men

Considering that the male species very existence is threatened in nature, man has taken a lot of care to make sure he lives long. In species where females are self sufficient like spiders and especially in communities like bees and ants, the males live a very short life. Among farm animals the males face the butcher way before a female does. Among apes and humans the males by providing protection and food and by removing the independence of women became quite important. The apes males may retain their importance if the forest survives but the human males are increasingly of not of much use to society. If a man complains of old age he might as well not and thank his stars instead. Imagine if he was a farm goat he would never have had a chance to see grey hairs. Ideally the birds are the best examples in nature of freedom and dignity a family must stand for unless we are talking about chicken.
