Evolutionary Psychology Part 1
BackWhat is Evolutionary Psychology's stance on other psychological fields? Why do older men prefer younger women? What are short-term mating strategies? What are Long-Term mating strategies? Why do women wear fewer cloths when they are ovulating? Can this help you get laid in a bar? What do we find attractive about one another? Why is evolutionary psychology trying to explain everything we do in reference to reproduction? Do you believe in this or not?

Im studying this but I wont get a job. Hopefully all the other psychology will crumble and I will be a evolutionary psychiatrist in a smoke filled room, filled with many leatherbound books.

Naive. Underestimate the potential of ev.psych. at the risk of your own fitness.

Hey friend!let me explain 'survival of the fittest'.Darwin meant the term 'fittest' to mean most 'fitting' to the environment, most adaptive.People misuse the term and think it means strongest.But it means most fitting. you are right saying the most adaptive do survive.Thats what survival of the fittest is

You have it wrong. We don't do things to reproduce. Men don't think, "That woman has a 7-10 hip-to-waiste ratio, and therefore she'll bear many kids." Rather, those men who like the 7-10 ratio, have more kids, since those women are more fertile. We're the ancestors of those men and women, as they had more children. Male children inherit the sexual desire for the ratio, and female children inherit the ratio. We fuck these women because we think they're hot, not to reproduce.

Read Schopenhauer, and it is more of a subconscious thing. There is so much that goes on in your head that you don't know about.

Evolution offers such a fundamental understanding of how we came into existence (it is THE explanation) that it is easy to see why psychology would be incontrovertably altered. Psychology = study of people, people = result of evolution, therefore psychology = study of evolution.

its like developing a software. u have ur standards for ur module the others have theirs for their module. while interfacing, they might try to change ur standards to theirs..but u realise ur standards r much better(lesser erros and maintence) what do u do?just let go becoz they r more powerful or u argure back(fight back)?/?
next time u see indians jut think u dont fully understand they and keep an open mind..dont think they r mentally serville.
