Study led by A/Prof Menelaos Apostolou, team @Uni_of_Nicosia only one woman. Begins by arguing sexuality is about reproduction. Incorrect.
Human behaviour is complex. One of a range of possible motivations & outcomes of sexual behaviour may be reproduciton, but not main reason
Throughout human history, various societies manage sexuality & reproduction in diverse ways. Main commonality is they're socially controlled
For example, various technologies have been used to sequester sexuality from reproduction. E.g. in Western culture https://www.amazon.com/Transformation-Intimacy-Sexuality-Eroticism-Societies/dp/0804722145 …
Same-sex relationships have had elevated status in many cultures, esp men. https://othersociologist.com/sociology-of-sexuality/ … Christianity & colonalism changed this
Let's go back to rubbish evo psych study. As you see, premise that sex is primarily about reproduction is flawed, reflecting cultural bias
While reproduction and genetic legacy is central to any argument about behaviour evolving in humans. I can't fathom how they argue for 1/
selection in this case, especially using onlines surveys. I can't access the artc for free to delve into it, but I assume, like most evo 2/
psych theories, it's rubbish. And I agree with you that most of the reporters probably did not read it either. :( 3/3
Happy to flick you a copy. But then you'd have to read the malarkey for yourself!
I'm *somewhat* interested to see how bad it is. Like watching a car accident, can't look away.
