Not always. You can't explain sports within a tribe with that theory, at least.

Re: It's not the winning that matters, it's the taking part that counts. Put an end to popups!

Taking part is certainly important wrt to sex.

All of this sort of stuff is crap. The fact that you tried says you have dedication (sort of). The fact that you won says you have skill. Me, I'd rather have skill
