> If anything, I'd say the historical power play is the man being taken advantage of for his simpleminded sexuality, not the other way around.

This male trait reinforces itself automatically.

If a man is not sufficiently obsessed with simple-minded sexuality, then he will not do what it takes to transmit this traits to the next generation. Hence, not being obsessed with simple-minded sexuality is an evolutionary dead end that gradually dies out ...

We are the way we are, simply because if we were not like that, we would not even be here.

I agree with the sentiment, but there's an important caveat.

Simpleminded sexually exclusively is not generally a good thing.

1. you waste time and energy breeding with unfit people

2. you do not accelerate evolution.

Clearly these are not good things. It's important 1 gender is more advanced-minded when it comes to sex to avoid this. But only 1. If both sexes were advanced-minded, then people would likely stop reproducing as much, and this trait would die out.
