It has parallels with mythology. In ancient times, people didn't understand what the Sun was or how the mountains were created, so they created stories. Today, people (and not just twerps -- evo-psych say-so stories are sadly quite common) don't understand neuroscience, psychology or anthropology, so they make up stories that explain how things are.

But what frightens me is that it's the same story. Women brought sin/feminism into the world. Women are the vile temptresses. Men must lead. Women will destroy your soul. Is RP just a secular Westboro Baptist Church? I would feel better if it was a new myth.

so they make up stories that explain how things are.

Exactly. If it's a hypothetical situation about cavemen that seems like it kinda-sorta makes sense, it must be true! All the STEM! goes out the window, if it can be used to justify a sexist worldview.

It seems so yes especially amongst pseudo-intellectuals. Evo Psych is nothing more than unsubstantiated nonsense that unfortunately disguises itself as "science" and is used as a crutch for people who want to validate their shitty ideas.
