So someone explain to me [View all]

Why do certain people continue to espouse outdated and simplistic anthropological theories of human development? Usually I'll trash a thread the minute I see that shit, because you'd have to teach a class to get their head out of their ass, not that that would work, but "alpha male"? People really believe that Edgar Rice Burroughs bullshit?

I could link to a number of essays and studies but I'm going to work.

I just find it completely strange.
