Nature versus nurture - nowhere is the debate more heated than in the areas of sex and sex differences. The Evolution of Human Sexuality adds fuel to the fire. Symons's thesis is that some of the typical differences between men and women in sexual behaviors, attitudes and feelings are innate: identical rearing of males and females will not result in identical sexualities.
Brilliant. Evolution moves slowly and correspondingly this book is still valid in its arguments. A salvo fired at the nonsense of radical social constructionist approaches.
