Evolutionary Psychologist Gone Wild


The article entitled "Why Are Black Women Rated Less Physically Attractive Than Other Women, But Black Men Are Rated Better Looking Than Other Men?" by Satoshi Kanazawa has been taken down -- if you really need to read that filth, it's available elsewhere. Here are the take-downs at other sites:

  1. Anna North at Jezebel: The Illustrious Career of a Crap Psychologist [Via Ivan Oransky at Retraction Watch]

  2. P.Z. Myers at Pharyngula: I Guess Even Psychology Today Has Its Limits: "Among the many reasons that I detest evolutionary psychology, one has a name: Satoshi Kanazawa."

  3. Dustin at Savage Minds: Why Are Evolutionary Psychologists Less Intelligent Than Other Mammals?
