Oh right. Yeah, that's kind of plausible. So women would be more into the nurture idea about everything, not just sex differences.
Yes, so that's where culture comes in, right? Many women choose careers and childcare now. The tweet was just meant to address ask why there's a question (from lots of feminists) that some tendency to nurture wouldn't ON AVERAGE be hardwired in human females.

I was talking to Marcus & trying to clarify what he meant by 'nurture'. Did you think I was replying to another tweet?

not really arguing with you particularly--just bringing up a point.

When some people say, "Of COURSE I'm not a blank slatist!" but then insist that even a greater ON AVERAGE tendency for human female mammals vs. males to be "nurturing" (at minimum, to keep their infants alive) is just "socialization"--that's tabula rasa in extremis.

Then, is it really such a crazy leap to think that ON AVERAGE the tendency in human mammal females to be invested in close human connection (their infants) could translate to a tendency ON AVERAGE to prefer people over things in their daily activities? AVERAGE AVERAGE AVERAGE
