It bravely tackles a number of controversial issues, including the perpetual nature/nurture argument. Evolutionary psychology has also confronted rape. Thorn and Palmer (Ward, & Siegert, 2002) argued that rape happens simply because human beings are animals and merely part and parcel of the natural world. They further argue (Ward, & Siegert, 2002) that rape results from inherited brain operations, which ensure a human population’s favorable reproductive outcome. This all makes for compelling talk around the office water cooler. Nevertheless, in this evolutionary psychology example, Thorn and Palmer failed to initiate and execute the proper scientific tasks to shore up their theory (Ward, & Siegert, 2002). They also never bothered to construct their psychological theory so that it duly identified causal mechanisms involved to make certain that the concepts embraced remained consistent and coherently connected (Ward, & Siegert, 2002). Moreover, these evolutionary psychologists never dealt with competing theories (Ward, & Siegert, 2002). The sound principles of scientific inquiry were pushed to the side in order to make an argument for a engrossing subject, which would immediately have psychologists worldwide scratching their
