'that is human nature'

It must be pretty bad or thought to be pretty bad when people say ’that’s human nature’ and they are no doubt referring to something unworthy someone did.

Come to think of it, I never heard this phrase ‘human nature’ been applied to a good deed, have you? We are so poorly thought by us and we condemn certain acts and attitude as inhumane…….

What is it then to be human? To have faults: ‘I’m only human, you know’……

To be better is angel. To be worse is beast, a monster or a devil. I do not know about devils but look at how we hurt or injured animal…are we only being human?

Gladiators were both professional and amateur fighters in ancient Rome fought  to entertain ‘civilized’ spectators. These fights took place in an arena:  man vs man and man against animals in combat that was at times to the death.  Bull fight in Spain: bull fighters (matador)s who got turn on by the roaring spectators while harming and injuring, before the bull dropped to its knees and dying, but if the bull fails to die the matador may use a sword with a short cross piece at the end which he stabs into the bull's neck severing the spinal cord and the fight is over.’ Laga ayam, sabung ayam , laga ayam sampai mati?? (cock fights) are more popular with Asians.

As in warfare: Wars of organized, armed, and often prolonged conflict carried on between states/nations or parties^, typified by extreme aggression and social separation and usually with high death and again …that’s human nature they said.

Read the stories about monsters and beast with an open mind, they are innocent creatures kill only for food unlike the human heroes who go about killing them or themselves as in wars are significantly for glory…

We talk about the rat race and call a real low down specimen of humanity a rat. When a man shows fear we ask: is he a man or a mouse or he is a chicken hearted or is chickening out…

A conman is a fox, a playboy a wolf. Inconsiderate and dangerous driver are road hogs, stubbornness in man are mulish or pig headed. A selfish and stupidly prejudiced person is a pig, as in ‘male chauvinist pig’ (MCP)…this last phrase is most unfair to pigs.

When a woman show an undesirable trait she is labeled a cat, shrew, dragon, vixen or minx and the word bitch has been so debased by human associations (as in SOB) that you can hardly ever use any more in  original straightforward sense of female dog. This is a gross injustice of comparisons towards those animals.

In scandalous remarks: For the English the wolf (Casanovas) is dangerous only to females. For the Chinese he is generally harmful and his special sin is ingratitude. The Malay equivalent of the English wolf is the crocodile. (buaya tembaga..)

We said someone is a snake, only mean he is lazy. Call an English man a dog, he may even be flattered by admitting he is abit of a dog but try calling a Malay man anything with canine connection and you may find yourself running for cover to escape his anger. (tp cuba panggil dia ayam jantan....ada yg suka)

I wonder what the animal use as insults when they argue: my beautiful feline with her …..

‘You…you…Male idiot fuc$%&g human being @#@%&…you!’

Hmmmmm……..
