however my problem with JP is that he gets way too into the evolutionary angle of s*** (i.e. "women paint their lips red because it simulates flush lips during sexual arousal"), which i feel makes him pretty detached from reality. in this case, it is that the action of putting on lipstick has evolved past being a primal practice to having a different meaning altogether, and honestly for a lot of men, lipstick isn't even sexually appealing, so it's hard to say that a woman putting on lipstick is subconsciously making herself more sexually presentable. I like JP but i think he is up his own ass way too much, he takes arguments like this into the real world that dont really have any place there


The reason he's like that is because his authority only comes from him as a professor of unrelated science, so he has to root things in "science" to not just be some rando talking out of his ass.

I talked about this in the last topic involving Jordan Peterson, but he namedrops mathematicians in completely unrelated contexts in the same way. It's why is book essentially quotes philosophers to tell you why you should make your bed.
