@kleinherenbrink Ok, I watched the documentary. Most important lessons imo (most of them, in one form or another, have been raised already):1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

1. Nature vs nurture dichotomy is flawed conceptually and scientifically, yet both camps hold on to it. This hinders scientific progress.

2. The researchers lack a worked-out scientific epigenetic theory of the nature-nurture interface of (gendered) behaviour and preferences.

3. As result, arguments based primarily on pre-theoretical intuitions & clearly researchers in the two camps differ wrt to these intuitions.

5. Way forward imo & out of impasse: Build interactionist models tht capture full diversity without imposing dichotomy (not f/m nor nat/nur)

To be clear for who didn't watch it: these points are meta-theoretical commentary on rethoric in documentary. Not reflection of its content.

Tough call. I watched it to better understand JP's suggestion/POV. Found it useful to see what goes wrong in discussion (as per points 1-6).
