Male, Female: The Evolution of Human Sex Differences | David C. Geary
1 post
Geary (psychology and anthropology, U. of Missouri-Columbia) thinks culturally constructed gender roles alone cannot account for the differences in the social behavior of men and women. He turns to Darwin's theory of sexual selection as the best avenue for understanding. His main focus is how th etwo elements of competition between males and of females selecting mates has influenced human behavior over the centuries and across cultures.
Great book on male and female attributes, ideology, and patterns. “Examines many of the differences in the social behaviors of men and women, questioning whether they are largely the result of culturally transmitted roles and pressures.”
