That'd be fair if what was being dismissed were the results of scientific studies. But what is instead being dismissed are the wildly extrapolated fancies of people who themselves who never read a peer reviewed study on evo-* but instead got it third or fourth hand, with exaggeration about what the data is suffiecient to show at every step. Then lo and behold all of sudden plain old traditional gender stereotypes are okay again because science (but please don't ask for citations).
There's plenty of blame to go around for this effect, but science popularizers are probably the lead villains of the piece.
You mean they're using their knowledge of humanity to make testable hypotheses to test and refine their implicit theories?
Say it ain't so!
Forgive the snark but armchair dismissal of evolutionary psychology from people who have never read an intro psychology textbook.
