How might the theory explain the social fixation with?

Question

Critique Evolutionary psychology (sociobiology) as a theory. What do you think is its
main strength? Its weakness? How might the theory explain the social fixation with
female physical perfection?

Answer 1

I do not think evolutionary psychology would concern itself with such a fuzzy concept as, " social fixation ". It's main strength is that it is evolutionary in approach. It's weaknesses is that it took all the ideas it holds from evolutionary biology and ,perhaps has taken them a bit beyond there purview. The jury is still out on this subject. Remember, evolutionary psychology is still psychology; thus it is not science, but social science, with all the attendant lack of rigor.

Answer 2

google "centerfold syndrome"
