Tested model is entirely wrong because they're incapable of even describing a non-prog worldview. Intelligence and cooperation were selected for in men because that's how to form successful war bands and there's constant pressure in Eurasia to be as good as your neighbors at it.

Total Y chromosome replacement events drove intelligence, not lekking where guys debate philosophy.

If those were the only two possibilities, the Y-chromosome-total-war one might actually be preferable to liberals! (There's no sex difference in general intelligence, but maybe there would have been if it had been sexually selected.)

No selective pressure on women though since they're prizes to be taken by war bands and you don't throw them away for lack of intelligence. Can very easily have arbitrarily large sex differences if there's selective pressure on one sex and weaker pressure on the other.
