Untreue Männer und keusche Frauen

Die aktuelle New York Times arbeitet sich mal wieder an den Fehlschlüssen der Evolutionsbiologen ab, die auch auf dem deutschen Buchmarkt sehr beliebt sind:

Everyone knows men are promiscuous by nature. It's part of the genetic strategy that evolved to help men spread their genes far and wide. The strategy is different for a woman, who has to go through so much just to have a baby and then nurture it. She is genetically programmed to want just one man who will stick with her and help raise their children. Surveys bear this out. In study after study and in country after country, men report more, often many more, sexual partners than women.

Hier geht es weiter. (Möglicherweise einfaches und kostenloses Log-In erforderlich.)
