The theory of evolution has been applied to the area of psychology. Read this book called "Why Beautiful People Have More Daughters: From Dating, Shopping, and Praying to Going to War and Becoming a Billionaire-- Two Evolutionary Psychologists Explain Why We Do What We Do". Really long title, but had an interesting point to make.
What was my key-takeaway from this book? Whatever we do in terms of our lives has been due to our tendency to have sex, procreate and ensure our lineage is being continued.
Evolutionary psychology is really new branch of science as compared to the mainstream social psychology... This therefore really goes back to the nature versus nurture that had been going on for many years amongst the scientific community.
