Also, “Randall Munroe stated he would have more respect for evolutionary psychology …” is simply false. Randall Munroe drew a comic in which a character expresses a specific objection to evolutionary psychology. It’s certainly reasonable to infer the gist of his opinion from that, but you’re explicitly attributing to him a specific statement which he did not make.
I like that you offer specific avenues by which to argue with you, should one want to.
The title of this article seems disproportionately confrontational, and general, for its content. Something more specific and less of a fist-pounding declarative would have brought my expectations before reading it more in line with what you actually had to say. I mention this because I found I had to consciously overwrite my confrontational response to the headline based on the article, and I think you’ll set yourself up for more productive discussion if you avoid triggering an emotional response before making a reasonable point.
Sorry that this feedback is all meta. I don’t actually have anything to add to “sexuality exists, therefore brains differ.” Yup.
Couple of typos: “independant,” “truely.”
