Hey guys. This thread is so far off track from its original intent. Thinking misery deserves to have this thread back for its original purpose and perhaps an apology.
I'm just sayin
The term "Napoleon complex" has been used in scientific research on the phenomenon of smaller organisms acting aggressively towards larger organisms. In contrast to the many examples of larger organisms acting aggressively towards smaller organisms in the animal kingdom, some studies of aggressive behavior in organisms have detected cases where smaller individuals initiate aggression.[10] A 1995 study of contests between males in the swordtail fish species Xiphophorus nigrensis and Xiphophorus multilineatus found that 78 % of observed fights were initiated by the smaller fish, and in 70 % of fights the fish that delivered the first bite lost the conflict.[11] From an evolutionary perspective, this "Napoleon complex" behavior seems irrational.[10]
Posited explanations include an asymmetry in the value of the contested resource to the two combatants (the individual with lower resource holding potential may attack first if the value of the resource is greater for him), a misconception on the part of the weaker organism about his own strength, and the "Desperado Effect", where omega males attack because they have no other opportunities to gain resources.[12]
Ohio University researchers have suggested another explanation, that the stronger contestant benefits from delaying escalating a display to a fight, "leaving the initiative to the opponent and hoping for him to retreat, either because of realistic perception of his chances to win the fight or by mistake. [...] our proposed explanation for what is commonly considered the 'Napoleon Complex' might be appropriately identified as the 'Gentle Giant Syndrome.'"[13]
GGR and Capebuffalo thank you.
Dan if you want attention go hang out at the Blue Oyster Bar or start your own thread.
So end it here then. Seriously. You seem to have a ton of interesting info on ab work and fat cells that guys seem interested in. Please just start a new thread on it. I'm sure you'll get a lot of responses and the thread could be useful. This is Misery's thread and it's way off point.
