A new study rebukes notion that only men were hunters in ancient times. It found little evidence to support the idea that roles were assigned specifically to each sex. Women were not only physically capable of being hunters, but there is little evidence to support that they were not hunting.

They're mostly getting dunked on, but they're wriggling around all over the thread raging about science being made "political."

    Look I don't want to be too much of a STEMlord but something you'll notice about a lot of these supremely cringe evopsych PhDs is that they have quite a bit more time with the psych part and a lot less with the evo part

    (Okay maybe there are some cringe as fuck Evo types too but the first people I ever heard laughing in public at Pee Pee Jordanson videos were some evolutionary biology grads so I want to believe they are above this shit)

      90% of the pushback i've ever seen on evopsych comes from actual biologists and the other 10% came from science communicators who are friends with biologists
