I always knew about the decrement of human's ability. Go back a few years in the past where ppl worked on farms without mechanized tool...and the difference between us is probably already noticeable. Just imagine this but 10 000 years in the past, I believe in all this.
...so where did all the genes go exactly?

It seems jujutsu beats even god. For what do we need him anymore? O.o
Neanderthal woman versus 300 lb man with a 9 mm gun.
You are inferior to this guy, and that is why you look so far up to him.

primitive example being the argument over who gets to be leader of the
tribe). Even in labour positions the expected lifespan is shorter.
We (human beings) often tend to prefer either the physical or the intellectual
over the other. It should follow that those who tended to the physical
aspect of human developement due to genetic predisposition were at higher
risk of death-before-mating. Strategizing as a social creature, beyond only
warfare, was a key element to our survival in the tribe all on its own.
