As a distal historical explanation interested in universal physiological and psychological mechanisms, the theory of evolution does not imply that there is no need to formulate more recent historical or proximate theories anymore, nor that one type of theory is more correct or better than the other. Explanations focused on cultural or individual idiosyncrasies do not contradict evolutionary explanations (Ridley 1993), as long as they take into consideration that humans are animals with evolved psychological faculties rather than being blank slates (Pinker 2002)
