But if you can explain inconsistent events with the same theory, that is *not* scientific. For example, saying that evolutionary psychology explains why women do and do not act sexually provocatively when fertile, because that helps them to produce offspring, and exposes them to the risk of rape at a bad time.
Good point!
One have to be open for the possibility of different tactics in different situations though.
