Rousseau came up with the term "social contract" in an attempt to explain how a society functions (or dysfunctions).
There is no social contract until the two genders treat each other equally and equitably without force, threat of punishment, or any other brutish/subhuman resolutions, intentions, or behaviour.
There is no equal and equitable treatment until we become Human and learn to love.
In the context of the social contract, it becomes crystal clear that we have been hiding from our Humanity all along.
Of course, a sentient race was certain to stumble across the glaring gap in the social contract, sooner or later. It emphasizes and exposes just how delusional we have been. We hid from the truth. Men have been slacking off and never took the possibility of succeeding at transforming coitus seriously.
That the human race ever believed it had a social contract proves that we have never become a Human race. Humans do not treat each other reprehensibly.
Game theory, with regard to the social contract and coitus, comes to mind. Only a win-win situation works best. Equal in all ways always works best. No more mincing words, no more bandaids, no more lying to ourselves. The lack of physical love during the only form of sex that creates life destroys the Human concept of a social contract.
Men have been fighting so hard to hide their lack that they could not even consider the possibility of its simple resolution. The answer becomes glaringly obvious with ease, once the certainty of failure is even questioned. This is getting at the heart of why we remained so oblivious for so long. Men are conditioned so deeply to believe, "that's just the way it is" that they cannot even consider the possibility of success. That's messed up. It is pounded into their heads since birth.
The social contract will become fulfilled and validated when the most common case becomes the sharing of ecstasy during the most intimate and only required physical act for humanity in order to remain in existence. In the current situation, the unfortunate side-effect is that men are trained to remain animals because all they learn in bed is to take. As long as they do not find a less savory way in which to close the deal, they will remain animals. I could go so far as to say that the social contract is loving coitus (see Truth and Lie) or its foundation, at least.
Its lack breaks both genders, as well as every other alternative form of physical sharing of love, until the alternatives are no longer perceived as only a substitute for the failed act of coitus. It is stupid that a sentient race thinks that coitus is only about making babies. It is infantile. It is an animal's decree. Sex is the initiation of love, once it is enacted as Humans. Coitus is not yet. Coitus, just for the sake of making babies, is an animal's perception.
That is what the battle between the sexes has always been about. Finding some way to make the playing field equal. It starts in bed.
A lot of people have already figured that out and make do. All of the brouhaha, all of the push and pull, regarding sex has always been about the flawed and failed social contract. We just never admitted it. We never could commit to the single necessity because ... well, if I go there, I will rant. You should know by now.
Basically, let's say our past is littered with mistakes and assumptions in the absence of consideration of the most important act of life. It is the blindspot that continues to wreck any chance of achieving an equally shared, sentient existence. Coitus requires something more from a sentient race. It is easily done.
The two genders don't see eye to eye (and, yes, of course, I love the double entendre)
I hit on another subject indirectly, while exploring this. My aversion to all things "expert". The title itself eradicates the possibility of asking the question or saying, "I don't know."
Do you see the connection? Men had to convince themselves that they were experts at the act of coitus. As 'experts', men declared, maybe ten thousand years ago, that they could do no better than two or three minutes. They were never experts at making coitus succeed. They became experts at lying to themselves and everyone else. The 'expertise' of failing is passed on and confirmed by each generation that remains convinced not to ask the question. I asked the question and f-all. Atlas was a simple-minded chump. This actually goes somewhere. It leads to our Humanity, dammit! I refuse to believe that everyone reading this is a simple-minded chump.
