Sorry, I misread you then. So please do tell me why you call them "insights" and what's wrong with evolutionary psychology in a nutshell - I'm genuinely curious. Also, Sperm Wars might be excellent material for changing preconceived notions of laymen in the field, but not so much for people who are well versed? Because despite recognizing that people want to procreate and that this influences human behaviour, the book puts forward several arguments I as a laymen wouldn't have recognized myself.
- greenlblue 17y agoI call them "insights" because very little of what's said in Sperm Wars is backed by hard science and the rest of it is just surface level observations from evolutionary psychology, i.e. women prefer the best genes for their children but they want dependable partners to provide for those children but like everything else in life women can't have their cake and eat it too.
