Sure, but Iran is made up of Iranians, who do want this; giving up on this means the end of your regime and the installation of someone who does still want this.
Palestine has the same thing going on.
There's really only the one solution to it.
Cro Magnon rules?
That's what "instinct" means, yes. Is it perfectly adapted at all times, particularly in modern post-scarcity environments? Well...
A human society that normalized homicidal competition for sex would not long survive.
Human societies normalize this all the time; it's just usually directed towards the tribe over the hill there. It's also not necessarily this way,
The problem with the S550 is that for the price you quoted you're only getting a V6
300HP is arguably more than enough for this use case; the S550 doesn't look as nice in my opinion, but is still the better car over the 197 (especially the 197s with the 4.0, which really is just a Miata with 4 seats and more room). I guess the Camaro counts too but the interior isn't as nice.
And then the Corvette, which is... also just a Miata in terms of practicality, but one on which the LS swap was done from the factory.
Not that both don't have the same kind of stigma, since the Ford has My Little Boomer on the front and the Corvette defines the archetype. That being said, though...

I like Miatas, but if you're only going to have one car and want something sporty, there are better options out there.
True; the only actual car Ford sells these days is just "better Miata" for a really good reason. Also (mostly) true for GM, for that matter.
Bonus points for being cheaper on the used market than the average NA or NB; why pay 15 grand for 150 HP when the S197/S550 Mustang or C5/C6 Corvette exists for the same price? Not like those are any more expensive to keep running...
Sure, but feminism and communism (the two most common ideologies of this type) can take a very long time to break that society, especially if that society is lucky enough.
We do have one example of how fast things fall apart, of course; South Africa's trajectory is a pretty clear object lesson on that.
