i think evo psych is such bullshit.

yes.

this is what they feed us. evo psych. women, girls are innately drawn to pink because they were the gathers.

facts, history (recent history) do not factor in. it is about story telling to make today fit in with the beginning of time. when ever they choose that to be.
