Trends in Gender: Female Perspective Natalie Angier presents the realities of gender inequality in her article, “Men, Women, Sex, and Darwin.” The author argues that women are monogamous, indicating their choice of marriage partners is limited. The notion suggests that women are still disadvantaged in making decisions relating to marriage as they can only have one partner. Furthermore, the evolutionary psychological perspective implies that women are submissive as an inborn trait (Bloom and Smith 297). The evolutionary concept is misleading as it promotes the image of women as weak in essential characteristics. The message is negative, traditional, and holds a pessimistic view as it diminishes women as inferior beings. Natalie further argues that the evolutionary psychological theory presents a wrong impression of women, which is true. The proposition passes on a traditional message which paints women, both old and young, as owing submission to men demands, even to the promiscuous ones (Bloom and Smith 297). Also, the Natalia argues from a correct and modern perspective by stating that women deserve a better image than ideas which the traditional points of…
