Are more sexually promiscuous Make better warriors Have fewer kids Have lots of children Care less for land or material possessions. Expect and prepare more for disasters like war, famine. Spend more time on leisure, music, dance, story-telling Have a stronger sense of honor and shame Less comfortable with war, domination, bragging Fewer topics are open for discussion Group decisions, with everyone having an equal voice. Better accept human authorities and hierarchy Deal with conflicts more personally and informally Believe in good and evil, in powerful gods. Prefer unhappy folk to be free to leave. Think people should learn their place and stay there. Leaders lead more by consensus. Leaders lead by rules Inspired by Overcoming Bias 27
