So you're trying to use science to justify why men can't get laid? Men don't get laid because they choose not to. You can if you go low enough. I'm alone because life is too wild for crazy bitches right now. Simple as. Figured that out without a shrink shoving a thermometer up my ass.David Buss, The Evolution of Desire
Buss's reply(I think)
(the article is an olive branch to feminists)
A feminist response to evolutionary psychology*(mostly ambivalence and some dislike)
*I acknowledge a lot of evopsych is just-so stories and "in caveman days x is what humans did, which explains y behavior" but it is like it or not the main field of science that tries to make sense of human behavior.
In general, feminists tend to dislike this sort of research, I may have overstated the "shit fit" on a particular book. But if you read enough literature, you tend to find feminists feel this sort of science popularizes misogyny and justifies neoliberal social practices(meaning basically modern capitalism and the social relations therein).
With regards to "mating practices"-well how much distaste for that term is because of romantic notions of what love is or is supposed to be, that imply humans are more than, or should be more than hairless apes. (I'm a cynical romantic, I want mankind to be like angels, not apes but it does me no favors to deny the animal substrate of human subconscious urges).
As for the mating practices debate, fuck that. I'm not a dog. Love takes time and work- both things incels hate.
