Dr. David Buss of the University of Texas at Austin is an expert on the evolutionary psychology of human mating strategies. Last time he was on the show (we recommend giving it a listen here), we discussed what women want, what men want, and why their desires radically differ as outlined in his book The Evolution of Desire: Strategies of Human Mating.

This time around, we dive deeper into the consequences of these differences in desire and try to unearth the roots of the dangerous dynamics that underpin men’s predatory behavior — and explore what we can all do to address it as a society. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
