Your last two paragraphs are completely irrelevant to his point that people shouldnt be so outwardly inappropriate and creepy. Only the first one matters and that doesnt mean men are biologically programmed to creepily express all their intentions and even if it was, were also biologically programmed to want to beat up people who make us mad but as a civilized society weve moved past those primal instincts.

Except that is literally what an instinct is. It's born in you, there is no escaping it. Also I would argue against that point based on all the fighting we DO do in modern society. People like to act so high and mighty because we're "civilized" and not like our "savage" ancestors, but we literally do the exact same shit they did. The only difference is we pretend it's somehow different if we do it or there's a reason for it. If we really have 'moved past those primal instincts because we're a civilized society now' then we would have world peace. Having pissing contests over land and resources or tribalism is literally the definition of primal instincts. Just because we use guns and bombs instead of sticks and stones doesn't change what the behavior is.
