A common claim in #EvoPsych is that the persistence of psychological sex differences in gender-egalitarian* countries shows that the differences are innate. I've argued that ignores the highly-gender-unequal media environment. Now @larawood.bsky.social has proved me right!

It was Tracey's focus groups, and our colleague Jean-Luc's ethnographic notes, that shifted me firmly from quali-skeptic to mixed-methods enthusiast. I'm eternally grateful I hired two anthropologists for a cross-cultural psychology grant!
So great to see more qualitative work in #EvoPsych now too.
Why are humans so good at reading minds? Read on (or tune in) as Armin W Schulz explains...

In ancestral environments, competence and devotion would have been reliable indicators of male mate value, and are probably stronger cues than the evolutionarily novel financial resources often emphasized in #evopsych:
There is gold in “unpublished” dissertations
According to #evopsych, it's not surprising that male tourists pay for sex with locals. What is surprising, as April Gorry found, is that women do the same. Is #evopsych wrong about women's mating psychology? In some ways, yes:

@canislatrans www.scientificamerican.com/blog/post.cfm - Good to see Kanazawa's racist #evopsych crap debunked. Sexist evopsych crap could use the same scrutiny.
