Literally, a gag reflex is hard wired and I used it figuratively only since a belief system (even a rejection of evolutionary psychology) is not. Part of what makes a civilized person is controlling base impulses. <br /><br />The most often cited evolutionary psychology example is looking for roots of women's preferences for browsing while shopping and men's shopping preference being find the object, buy it and bring it home. Supposedly this behavior comes from early man's social structure where females were "gatherers" and males were "hunters". The easiest prick to that bubble is that a lot of men and women don't fit the modern day shopping stereotype. For example, a traditional "man's man" can spend considerable time browsing for things he enjoys, such as in the Home Depot tool department or in the local music and video electronics store. <br /><br />We're pretty far afield. I'll be happy to read more evolutionary psychology writing, since it's a hot topic these days. But it will take a lot of persuation to convince me that racial prejudice, from the minority or majority side, is a result of evolution. It may be "natural" to prefer intially to associate with another person who looks like me than someone who looks quite different. But I have come to recognize I would be more comfortable in the company of James Coleman than I would of a white tobacco farmer from Alabama.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-38490332818682046612006-12-13T10:56:00.000-05:002006-12-13T10:56:00.000-05:00I gag whenever Evolutionary Psychology rears its h...<i>I gag whenever Evolutionary Psychology rears its head.

It is a way to justify the status quo of human behavior and to say we can't help the way we are because we are wired that way. <br /><br />I thought war eagles definition of racism was a bitter sarcasm, not really meant to be take seriously.<br /><br />Reverse racism undeniably exists in black populations in this country and plays a large role in this hoax case. It is just as silly to deny that as it is to deny that there are any white racists in this country. Progress is not made and those racists views of both sides are not reduced by each race sitting back and saying or thinking that all blacks/whites are prejudiced against all whites/blacks. Nor is progress made by claiming that everyone is prejudiced because evolutionary psychology says human were always that way. <br /><br />Progress can be made by pointing out and criticizing actions and words of people, particularly those in positions of power or leadership, which evince unfair prejudicial judgments based on race.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-72491695960602437092006-12-12T23:01:00.000-05:002006-12-12T23:01:00.000-05:00Anonymous said...

I am old enough to know that the true definition of "racism" is to use the sole criteria of race as a means to oppress another group of people. As far as the PC bilge above, it is no secret in Evolutionary Psychology, "human traits and capacities" do have a racial or genetic determinant. This is no secret and in no way means one is "racist' Unbelievable how low we have sunk that we need new definitions in order to fit an agenda. <br /><br />Also, JC is not a troll, 9:19pm.
