Psychology Today: Ten Politically Incorrect Truths About Human Nature

HumannatureLink for this Post: Psychology Today: Ten Politically Incorrect Truths About Human Nature.

I lived in politically correct Santa Cruz for much of my life so I have learned to tread lightly on the feelings and notions of correct people.

However I am also a fan of evolutionary psychology and sociobiology which provide some important insights into human nature.

As I have said before, humans are really just  smart monkeys who pretend that they know a lot more than they really know. One of  most important things which we know little about is human nature (which I have written about in the context of  MDMA and psychedelic drugs).
The 10 "truths" in this article might better be termed 10 theories. However they make some sense in our currently crazy world and that is why this article has become popular and is linked to here.
