[QUOTE="ExploringSikhi, post: 192782, member: 19734"] [SIZE=2]spnadmin Ji, apologies for not replying sooner, I have been busy with University coursework and have not had an opportunity to reply. I am still a bit short on time, so I will try to keep this short. [/SIZE] [SIZE=2]I feel like this is the cornerstone of your argument. While I agree with most of your post, about biological evolution making allowances for genetic variations, the importance of these variations in the event of radical environmental change, I fail to see how this in any way downplays the credibility of evolutionary psychology. Evolutionary psychology, like evolutionary biology, does not state that "a male with xxxx will survive and a male who does not have xxxx won't, in a given environment", if that was the case, I would agree with you that it is rigid and too narrow to be true.
