Your theory about the origin of aggressiveness puts more weight on the genes; mine puts more weight on the culture.

You do know that this is a controversial topic since at least 1963 when Konrad Lorentz published his On Aggression, right? If you want to talk about theories it's a good habit to be aware of existing literature :-/

If you want to talk about books it's a good habit to check they're not outdated.
