There's a distinct term for it because it serves more than one function. But it developmentally starts as the anal opening, and continues to serve as the anus in an adult. This is really all semantics, but from a developmental biology standpoint it is an anus that has acquired other functionality.

Edit to add, from the Wiki link: "In deuterostomes, the original dent becomes the anus, while the gut eventually tunnels through the embryo until it reaches the other side, forming an opening that becomes the mouth."

Vertebrates are deuterostomes. In bird development, that original "anus" becomes the cloaca.

The fuck are you talking about? So now it’s a random half of the population? Still comes down to whether or not you’re stronger than the average person, unless, like I jokingly said at the beginning, everyone lines up and you fight one after the other. You’ve circled all the way around to the beginning. Again, fuck you’re stupid.

Well shit. That's a pretty rough metric. I mean I don't know anyone who can take on over 4 billion people at once.

Wait.. is that OP's whole point? That no one has the right to call themselves the Alpha Male? Maybe humanity working together is the real Alpha Male? Or maybe the real Alpha Male was the friends we made along the way.. to go beat the shit out of a single person?

Yeah but I never said specifically the weaker half I just said half of the population, so that could mean some of the strongest people in the world are included, if it was specifically the weaker half then yeah for a lot it would be easy but it would most likely be a mix. I know you are trying your hardest here but it isn't working out for you. You're the one all butt hurt because you're lame ass joke wasn't funny, if anything you are making my day better by entertaining me with whatever the hell you are trying to do.
