I know in bits and pieces he has talked about things like height, sex, features, bones, etc., but has he ever talked about things like prenatal androgen exposure? Jawline/facial morphology? How the development period predicates morphological factors step-by-step and under what influence or rigidity these very things then refuse to change?
I know he views things from a bioenergetic perspective rather than just the "genes explain it" without actually explaining how genes explain it angle. For example, I have seen weak-jawed men produce strong-jawed men -- and vice-versa. You do not necessarily always "look" or "act" identically to those before you, even if some subtleties do remain.
But has Ray ever actually pondered over developmental variances? I know he'd view a weaker jawline as, say, less energy than a stronger one (presumably because more bone or development would be a staple or theory behind energetic structure, balance and homeostasis). But this doesn't explain a host of things I am concerned like, for example:
How can some people have excellent morphological development (good body structure or build, fat storage, bone positioning, adequate hormonal balances, facial developmental symmetry and balance, etc.) even despite endless downfalls? For example I have seen alcoholic men with no life purpose who look almost like models -- on the flip side you see people here who do "everything right" to try and improve their health, androgenic-ness or feminine-esque, improve their "flaws" both physical & mental & yet still fail or fall short. The best example of explaining bioenergetics, I'd say, would be showing how it can make someone ugly ideally good looking.
I have seen guys who eat low protein/bad diets, no exercise, drink heavily, etc. & have six packs, great symmetry, great bodies -- meanwhile I always have had a horrible body despite even using anabolics, tracking ratios/macros/micros, exercising, trying to lower stress. Yet it seems some people are just born so blessed/live their lives as if NOTHING can affect them while others barely hold on. There is like some universal magic here in how there's a big divide: ugly sufferers vs. privileged beauties who do nothing.
There are low carb people who look fantastic and live just as long ... Just like there are good looking, easy-life happy people with tons of privilege who never lift a finger or try, yet life never hurts them. They always have a good body, enjoy their life, get things easily. Meanwhile some of us spend all of our time trying to fix the very flaws that consume us, like poverty, ugliness, sickness. We want to grow/change so it benefits us -- this's why I think focusing on the OUTSIDE is more important than potential of the INSIDE.
If energy and good structure creates good looks, explain hypothyroid good looking people? Also, explain the still ugly people who corrected their metabolism/thyroid. Again, seen literal alcoholic, non-exercising, poor dieting people (lived with them YEARS) and they keep their fantastic faces and bodies untouched. Again, on the flipside, people like me have to go balls to the wall to look decent, like surgery/cosmetics, sedatives, steroids, endless researching and pondering ... All while you have happy, sexy, easygoing people who eat anything or starve themselves and everything is peachy. I've seen too many good looking guys living like Gods vs. me who was bullied for my looks as a kid.
I have yet to hear an argument from such in thorough from anyone from Peat himself to anyone here. What explains the bioenergetics of good looks and thus better privilege? Universal randomness? Quantifiable patterns that can be replicated? It seems NOBODY can really explain -- or I have yet to witness explain -- what goes in to making one attractive & privileged in life vs. the opposite. I hate the divide and have yet to understand what can be done about ... And I'd assume we would start from bioenergetic principles first, i.e., first start TRULY UNDERSTANDING the pattern of growth/change and how to achieve control over such in some theoretically possible way.
