"The Ayla Descent Theory" of Mary Sues

"Children of the Earth," Luis Royo.

After the success of Jean M. Auel's stone age novel Clan of the Cave Bear, there was a very lengthy trend in the publishing world of stone age adventure novels aimed at women that lasted for a decade and only really fizzled out in the early 2000s. After all, "Ayla," the name of the main character of these books, was one of the top baby names of 1987.

The target audience for these books were weird midwestern aunts....you know, the Mists of Avalon and the Mercedes Lackey/Valdemar audience. Therefore, the Clan of the Cave Bear imitators also featured things of interest to the weird aunt audience: Scotland, redhaired women with sharp tongues, commanding wolves, Ireland, Feminism, riding herds of wild horses bareback in scenic locations, Wicca, matriarchial religions, swimming with dolphins....but above all else, American Indians (a culture this audience finds interesting, as anyone who has seen the home decor of a typical weird midwestern aunt can attest), with many novels set in Ice Age America, like Children of the Dawn, Reindeer Moon and the First Americans. Decades later, this audience would form the core fandom for Game of Thrones, and the character of Khaleesi Targaryen in particular.

These books almost assuredly still have a place of honor on the book shelf of the weirdest woman at your job.

Nearly all of these imitators have two of Clan of the Cave Bear's defining traits: 1) a supremely beautiful, usually blonde athletic and statuesque main character over 5'11" who does not realize that she is so beautiful and desirable, who is good at a variety of different skills and is friendly with animals like hawks, dolphins, or horses, and 2) a love triangle between this aforementioned blond but innocent Venus and two bodybuilder muscular he-men cave hunks, one of whom is a blonde guy with long rock star hair (it was the 80s), and the other being a buff black guy with dreadlocks (or otherwise ethnic in some way).

The heroine usually picks the blonde guy in the end, but the audience usually picks the ethnic guy.

In the late 90s and early 2000s, in the broader culture of fandom, it was fashionable to dump on "Mary Sues" (indulgent wish-fulfillment author personas in fanfiction) and the people who wrote them. Accusations of creating a Mary Sue approached a kind of hysteria. Even at the time, when everyone else was getting swept up in this, I thought that getting mad about aunties writing fanfiction showed a loss of perspective, and was a bit silly. Thankfully, we've benefitted from moral evolution: the consensus in fandom now is that writing aspirational characters is a harmless activity that tests a young writer's creative muscles, like the half-Vulcan pretty new ensign on the Enterprise that Kirk and Spock both fall in love with, or a new archer girl who Legolas falls in love with joining the Fellowship. This hate walked hand in hand with insecurities, in the exact same way that people worried about their appearance or concerned with their weight are often cruel to fat people, and there were frequent tests if this or that character in your writing was a Mary Sue.

There was a running joke in this 2000s culture of anti-self insertion called the "Ayla Descent Theory of Mary Sues." The joke was that Mary Sues came into existence because Ayla, the beautiful, athletic heroine of the Clan of the Cave Bear novels, was the ancestor of their entire lineage, as the first known Mary Sue to ever exist in the historical record, described as being a statuesque blonde who did everything right and was always at the center of love triangles, and who changed human history.

According to the running joke, Mary Sues everywhere were descended from Ayla from Clan of the Cave Bear, and she was the first to exist, and Ayla was the explanation of where all the Enterprise's new ensigns main characters fall in love with come from.

Less whining about trans women wanting to play sports and more about a no rules category where everything goes, I want to see a four armed conjointed twin on the max amount of steroids taking on an 8ft bodybuilder installed with the newest cybernetic upgrades in a martial arts duel, motivate society to accelerate human evolution

Hello Mr Support, how much could I devolve my bodybuilder neighbor without becoming obvious he is not homo sapiens anymore ? These evolution charts are so confusing

Well, I would say… It can be… Maybe you've overshot the mark by changing the assignment to the branches of the Homo sapiens sapiens family tree…

The good news is that it is hardly noticeable in the gym that your neighbor took a wrong turn in evolution and is now a homo neanderthalensis. He hardly talks there anyway, the grunting is hardly any different from before… And he doesn't need table manners or cultivated hobbies there either. And since you've gone overboard with evolution, your neighbor spends most of his time in the gym anyway. For training. As a trainer. And occasionally to prove that a homo neanderthalensis is capable of fathering children with a homo sapiens.

This development has two key advantages for you: Firstly, new neighbors have moved in next door, with whom you share considerably more interests than with the Stone Age man. And secondly, you have won the bet with your brother that a highly developed brain is not necessary to be a successful fitness influencer.

Cosgrad Torrinde is the funniest character. He's a bodybuilder. He's a eugenicist. He's comic relief. He has every disease. He invented evolution. He’s the lesser of two fascists. His cock is comically enormous. I hate him. Most importantly of all, he licked a frog.

Checking the growth evolution is fundamental.

-Nice pump, David. But this is only the beginning.

-Congratulations, man, your biceps are gaining size. But they have to grow more.

-Yes, Bro. You are turning into a real bodybuilder, but not big enough.

-Looking nice, David. But you told me that you want to be HUGE. We have work to do!

-Yes, man that's more like it. But we can add some more size to your arms.

-See? Bigger biceps... But I'm gonna make them grow bigger than your head. Yes, David, trust me.

-You are starting to look the way I envision for you... But my work isn't finished yet.

-You are going to explode with mass and muscle. Just do what I say and you'll get what you desire.

-Yes, Bro. No pain, no gain. Flex. Pump. GROW!

-I told you, David. I was going to make you a real muscle giant.

-But I want more, Larry. I need MORE.

-I know, man. And I'm going to give it to you.

Lucky again! I had the opportunity to meet Virginia again at her most recent competition where she took a well-deserved third place. You can clearly see her evolution, more muscle mass, especially on the legs, arms, and shoulders. Better muscle density. I am very happy to see the evolution of this much-loved athlete. I made this film right after he got off the stage and for that I consider myself lucky, which is why I want to share this video with you.

The evolution of bodybuilding has gotten to a concerning degree that I feel like no one really talks about enough. For illustration, here are some pics of Arnold in his heyday:

Bro was absolutely destroying every competition in the 70s. He openly admits to using steroids at the time but claims it was in moderation, not like how they do now.

Compare this to modern Mr. Olympia contestants

Do you see what I am getting at here.

There's been minimal studies on the longterm effects of this kind of steroid usage but contestants have dropped dead and there's bodybuilders in their 30s and 40s frequently dying of heart attacks and embolisms.

According to some reports, the bodybuilding industry is expected to reach 4.7 billion dollars by next year.

I think everyone knows this somewhere in the back of their mind, that bodybuilding is dangerous and harmful, but I don't feel like anyone is actually talking about it enough. We have a multi-billion dollar industry, with Vegas shows and televised competitions, of people essentially killing themselves before our eyes.

It's becoming better understood that these people have a form of body dysmorphia, but imagine if a Vegas hotel hosted a massive show to find the most anorexic-looking person possible. The fact that this is accepted at all is really really fucking weird.

Day 4 of my Indigo Disk countdown!

So out of all Pokémon, my absolute most hated would be… Alolan Exeggutor. But the very close second would be Conkeldurr. Of all Pokémon, they are very easily the most absolutely fucking hideous of them all. Who the hell at Gamefreak thought an elderly clown bodybuilder was a good basis for a Pokémon design? Like the face is already bad, but those fucking huge, pink, bulging, veins make me feel sick to my stomach!

With that all said, why the hell would I catch a Rellor, a mon that’s pretty close aesthetically to Conkeldurr, for my team?

Well, first of all, Rellor being kinda gross looking is much more forgivable considering they’re a dung beetle. Y’know, the beetle that eats feces? Of course they’d not be pretty. But the main reason I caught one was for their absolutely amazing evolution.

Much unlike their previous form, Rabsca has an absolutely gorgeous design, from their metallic blue shell, to their lovely red face, to their glorious ’stache. Not only that, but they’re a psychic type! While this all might seem strange for a dung beetle, it actually makes a lot of sense if you know the symbolism of dung beetles in ancient Egypt.

You see, scarabs (a fancier name for dung beetles) were associated with the god Khepri (who is also the namesake of my Rabsca) in Egyptian religion. Khepri is the god of the early morning, with the task of rolling the sun across the sky. So scarabs that rolled dung across the ground were naturally the animals associated with him. Helping the symbolism is how scarabs have their larva inside the dung, and Khepri was the god of the morning, when the day is “young”, so scarabs were also associated with rebirth!

And that aspect just so happens to be incorporated in Rabsca’s lore, as instead of a ball of dung, they now carry around some kind of psychic orb, with a larva inside! The Pokédex even implies that the larva is the true source of Rabsca’s consciousness, as the body is now apparently lifeless, only carrying the larva around. So we have a Pokémon that evolves into their own offspring, which is such a bizarre yet compelling concept! With as little bias as possible, Rabsca is a strong contender for one of the best concepts for a Pokémon yet.

I couldn’t think of any fun pose this time, sorry. Khepri’s just vibing in some desert with a Gimmighoul and Orthworm in the background. But I did think to put the sun visible in the sky, just as a little reminder of the fascinating inspiration behind this mon!
