Wtf I hate Aristotle now

wtf I hate Aristotle now

This is why empiricism was the greatest thing philosophy ever did.

Maybe he had their teeth removed to fit his giant greek dick.

Did that ever occur to you, Bertrand? Fuck you.

What if he actually did examine both his wives' mouths and they both have less teeth than him?

Maybe Aristotle just had some extra wisdom teeth because he was wise and shit

Wisdom teeth are called that because of Aristotle.

>examining his wive's mouths

Well played, Russell, well played

...

He couldn't see the parallax with the limited technology he had at the time. His defense of Geocentrism was legitimate.

If you want to mad at him for that, why not blame Thales for not knowing what a gluon is

>let's make shit up and call it philosophy

>Make shit up
>Aristotle

It was a metaphor you dunce, as in husbands should deck their wives regularly.

all metaphysics is making shit up: the philosophy

>He doesn't realize Newton's Physics are just his Metaphysics

Oughta deck you right here and now

One's diet during childhood and adolescence impacts jaw growth and development. Just like how if someone whose wheelchair bound for their entire life, so does to if someone is raised through their adolescent growth by getting spoon-fed everyday like Steven Hawking, their jaws will likely to grow stunted. How hard the contents of one's diet is during those important phrases can determine larger jaw-size and less teeth crowding. Higher testosterone rates with males also correlates them having larger jaws than females, and although I can't find any studies on differences between wisdom tooth eruption prevalence and maintenance between males and females, it is widely documented that women have higher rates of having crowded teeth, that often pertains to having a smaller jaw in these cases.

But why does that matter? Well, I'm proposing that Ancient Greek women either had higher rates of wisdom teeth absence or impaction than modern women from their diets. that Aristotle--in this case--considered when they did erupt wisdom teeth, that it was considered rare to him and not standard like it is to males, or that his female patients lost more teeth on average from their diets before their wisdom teeth erupted but Aristotle didn't know that. And I believe it's in part of them having smaller jaws from being females, and from having a softer diet than males. As the prevalence of eating meat wasn't exactly common outside of the various annual festivals or among the rich because of costs and preparation behind it. But with those cases and the common exceptional cases, it's likely it that most of it went to the males (we know from writers back-then mentioning that the women and children of a household would allow the man and his peers to eat first in their own room, then they would eat after they were done) both out of convention and the fact they probably needed it because they did more physical strenuous activities that required more protein.

We also know since most women back then consisted of most of those who were in charged of preparing meals--and doing so back then took considerably a much longer-time in a conventional daily-life household, that they probably cooked and prepared most of their meals that they would personally eat probably more softer out of preference--as they were often in control of such decisions; than males, who in most daily circumstances probably weren't served on demand, but on the same time routine or experienced to eating more harder bread from having to eat their meals more often further away from some established kitchen rudimentary out of the grain they had, such in cases where they work on some construction or work project on some site far away from their settlement or in the field while serving in the army or navy. Diets relying on grain and processed vegetables are more likely to cause one to develop cavities, and they are often softer than uncooked crops and meats. Therefor, Ancient Greek women probably experienced more teeth loss from decay and tooth impaction--so much so that they probably lost a few during their puberty and when Aristotle saw them have erupting wisdom teeth in their 20's or above (assuming he worked on them and their dental problems) he probably thought they were just their second molars, that were analogous to wisdom teeth in males, coming-in.

Also, just because Aristotle was said to be a doctor doesn't mean he worked on all patients. They had slave-doctors back then--who were used to work on both other slaves and freemen, but at a cheaper fee. As far as we know--given Aristotles' background and apparent fame in his lifetime--most of his patients were probably wealthy male citizens (who consisted of a lot of the military and athletes) whose background allowed them to live through their adulthood with some retained erupted wisdom teeth; while the exposure to working on women were probably their wives and daughters.

Couldn't agree more and that's why the scientific method is a bunch of hog-wash.

Maybe his wives both had bad dental hygiene.
