    A Billion Years Of Sex Differences: Steve Stewart-Williams - The Michael Sartain Podcast

    Evolutionary psychologist Steve Stewart-Williams joins me this episode for a wide-ranging discussion on what makes humans tick — biological sex differences, the mechanics of attraction, how relationships and personality take shape, and the contested science that tries to explain all of it. Steve teaches psychology at the University of Nottingham Malaysia and has written Darwin, God and the Meaning of Life, The Ape That Understood the Universe, and most recently A Billion Years of Sex Differences. Together we get into why his field draws so much political heat and misreading from every direction. Steve breaks down how traditionalists and progressives each manage to distort what the research actually shows, why acknowledging biology's role isn't a backdoor argument for old-fashioned gender roles, and why explaining how human nature works says nothing about how a society ought to be organized. 00:00 Intro 07:55 Are Sex Differences Biological or Cultural? 14:23 How Steve Discovered Evolutionary Psychology 17:48 Why Male and Female Mating Strategies Differ 21:18 Mate-Choice Copying and the Wedding Ring Effect 29:35 The Gender-Equality Paradox 36:11 Male and Female Personality Differences 38:15 Parenthood, Depression and Modern Life 45:06 Male Suicide, Therapy and Mental Health 50:05 Psychology's Replication Crisis 56:29 Will Sex Differences Ever Disappear? 1:01:54 The Largest Psychological Sex Differences 1:06:14 Patriarchy and Social-Media Narratives About Men 1:16:25 Prenatal Testosterone and Twin Studies 1:25:27 Sexual Orientation, Crime and Gender Differences 1:27:52 Casual Sex and Sexual Overperception 1:36:22 Rival Derogation and Mate Selection 1:41:06 Dating Apps, Hypergamy and Attraction 1:46:06 Why Humor, Charisma and Competence Are Attractive 1:52:25 Evolutionary Theories That Were Proven Wrong 1:53:49 Wokeness and Conformity in Academia 2:03:01 The Argument Against Innate Sex Differences 2:05:32 A Billion Years of Sex Differences 2:06:46 Using AI for Research and Debate Preparation 2:14:14 Final Dating Insights and Closing Thoughts ———————————————————— 🔥 Steal my blueprint for attracting signed models and attending VIP-only events in 21 days...
