OK so they were just as smart as most animals and even insects. How much did this research cost us?

What about the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered Neanderthals??? What was their role in Neanderthal society?? Were they discriminated against by Neanderthal bigots????

...they took care of the sick persons, buried their deceased, ate seafood...

Improperly prepared blowfish is probably what wiped them out.

Researchers state that the retouching of the edges of stone tools seems to have been a male task...

With their teeth?

So, instead of saying “iron my shirt”,
he said “chew my stick”?

“It is still unclear”

I can agree to that.

Apparently table manners were not invented by Neanderthals.

This is not true. Neanderthal women wrestled down Wooly Mammoths with their bare hands, just like the men. Any femlit prof can tell you that.

So if you’re a man and you won’t do housework, then you are a Neanderthal?

Of course. They were pragmatists.

I was recently in Australia, and the Aboriginals there have very strict separation of male and female roles. The modern feminist and gender ideology crowds must have a fit at this evidence that there are in fact deep-seated biological and cultural differences between the sexes.
