And I'm too lazy to look up any studies about evolutionary psychology. I just think it's ridiculous to assume that our psychology is determined entirely by society when our brains are physical, and have been shaped by billions of years of evolution the same as all of our other body parts. Unless you think that gender psychology is somehow special, and only determined by society, as opposed to all other aspects of human psychology.
