Yes. Humans can be said to be inherently selfish, which is further upset through social and environmental interactions. The genetic pool affects humans physical behavior either positively or negatively. Human behavior results from genetic factors. This for instance is proved by studying identical twins that have been exposed to different environment in their upbringing. They have portrayed various resemblances in relation to lifestyles as well as personal preferences. For instance, there are cases when twins, having been separated on birth, have reflected having similar preferences in relation to use of given brands or having preferred similar career paths. These are some of the instances that clearly show that behavior is genetically predetermined and therefore the notion of being selfish is genetically true.Additionally, human are a collection of genes that are selfish, which have interacted to ensure persistence and therefore heredity. Besides, the biologist Michael Ghiselin once stated that Scratch an altruist, and watch a hypocrite bleed. The quote is taken to mean that human compassion and generosity are a part of personality. However, these are just illusions, which are utilized in manipulation of others to satisfy personal genetic means. As a result, human thinks that they perform tasks on behalf of other persons but, instead it is a way to satisfy their inherent selfishness. In relation to this aspect, consider this illustration, how does a man saves a child from drowning? These two individuals are not genetically related. Thus, from evolutionary logic, the saviors choice to save the drowning child is not sensible since he even exposes himself to a danger of drowning himself. As a result, he would not even have an opportunity to bear his own offspring for a child who could not even help him in relation to genetics. This shows a spirit of self sacrifice, being powerful, swift and trustworthy. If there is a woman nearby, who witnesses such an incidence, she is able to notice such traits and as a result of the action, the woman is attracted to such a man and even willing to mate with him. Exhibiting altruism has proven beneficial for individuals since they have earned trust, acquired many friends and preferred by the opposite mate in comparison with those who exhibited selfishness. As a result, genetically speaking, humans physically exhibit selflessness to advertise themselves with another selfish genetic motive. It is therefore true to say that human behaved in the manner they do in order to achieve a genetic conquest.Human beings have shown a willingness to help others within their environments even without any returns to the extent of sacrificing themselves or having to undergo certain expenses, which reflects altruistic behavior. Why is there such a deep need to help other people irrespective of ones socio-economic, ethnic, sexual or cultural backgrounds? Children go to the extent of mimicking mature persons around them. These are genetically driven motives, which may appear selfless but are genetically predisposed. These are selfish genes, makes up human thoughts designed as social, dependable and supportive through environmental stimulation in order to trigger their operation. For instance, a child cannot learn how to speak if no one trains him or her and through imitating others, due to altruistic drive to fit within the population. If one does not recognize and reinforce such values, the genetic component may fail to express cooperation empathy and altruistic acts. Man is born selfish and becomes social as a result of upbringing and moral training, but the behavior is best expressed due to its reinforcement, need to be competitive and thus craft a positive difference.
