No you don't
Yes you do.
Not at all
If you have no morals, why would you care about empathy?
Empathy is a biological function, it's a brain function
Also, let's look at child abuse statistics, the majority of child abusers are female.
Nature does not care for morals
But yet we're too believe women are more empathetic.
I'm aware of nature not caring about morals.
Morals are a result of higher awareness, not of basic programming
Why are you bringing that up, lol.
Empathy is basic, morals are advanced
Yes, and the only creatures that have actual empathy more or less are humans.
Wrong again
Morals being present is absolutely required to have a sense of empathy or sympathy.
Wrong
Morals are a philosophical concept
You don't need to have higher modes of thinking to be able to empathize
Yes you do.
No you don't
Prove it
Morals are a philosophical concept as well as a state of being, you can't give empathy to someone without thinking about it first, we're socialized to have empathy.
if you're socialized to not have empathy, you're a sociopath.
Sociopaths have very weak morals.
Have you studied biology or psychology?
To an extent yes, but not thoroughly.
What is "to an extent"?
Just what I told you.
So nothing of significance then, ok
I've done some research into it but I'm not a master.
So you're not an authority on empathy then
No not really.
So now you're making an appeal to authority?
Ok, then why do you think you can tell me the functionality of empathy and morality, if you haven't studied the required fields?
Because I have the ability to think critically.
Sounds like bullshit
Empathy is not something you can "critically think about"
Also, this is very very derailed, the purpose of this conversation was to talk about men having more empathy.
You either study empathy or you don't understand it
or at the very least as much.
