৩২৫ Greedy reductionism is a term coined by Daniel Dennett, in his 1995 book Darwin’s Dangerous Idea (Simon & Schuster; 1995), to refer to a kind of erroneous reductionism. Whereas “good” reductionism means explaining a thing in terms of what it reduces to (for example, its parts and their interactions), greedy reductionism is when “in their eagerness for a bargain, in their zeal to explain too much too fast, scientists and philosophers[…] underestimate the complexities, trying to skip whole layers or levels of theory in their rush to fasten everything securely and neatly to the foundation.

৩৩১ Most rape victims are women of childbearing age. Also, the analysis of the data showed that young women suffered greater distress after a rape than did children or women who were past reproductive age. According to Randy Thornhill and Craig T. Palmer, the author of the controvesial book, the finding makes evolutionary sense, because it is young women who were at risk of being impregnated by an undesirable mate. Married women, moreover, were more traumatized than unmarried women, and they were more likely to feel that their future had been harmed by the rape. That, too, makes evolutionary sense, because the doubt a rape sows about paternity can lead a long-term mate to withdraw his support.
