Sure. And when these discussions on the internet happen in a vacuum of social studies or experiments it inevitably devolves into people dumping their half-baked post hoc rationalizations on each other backed by some crap anecdotes. It also inevitably turns sexist, especially given the issue at hand.

Ah, I misunderstood you. You're right that our own opinions aren't really relevant without a study.

Yes, and evo-psych is usually unfalsifiable. So these studies probably won't show up any time soon.
