timaree reposted to modernsex — Today's theme is sexuality and Evolutionary Psychology, inspired by this post by @Brent. My own dissertation utilized evolutionary psychology in the examination of attraction, but the field is not without its criticisms. While it is definitely a science, there is a lot of guesswork and assumption. But it's super interesting! 7 months ago
