It would be somewhat less bad if it had been more clearly labeled speculative, but that’s not the fundamental issue. “cartoon” implies to me something like Newton’s laws—not correct exactly, but a good enough model to be going on for the purposes of the conversation. I think your object-level evopsych statements are closer to, uh, I don’t actually know physics nearly well enough to complete the analogy. Some sort of theory of a phenomenon that is not entirely proven to even exist, with some evidence for and some against, which a small minority group of scientists present as settled science and procede to write further papers using it as an assumption.
I was not saying you had made the claim up, but presenting controversial claims with no hedging is not great. As for everything else, your post implies strongly, without stating outright, various narratives about human motivations/evolution that are not, in fact, obvious. For instance, that women want to secure the loyalty of one man, while men want to have sex with as many women as possible, and that this adversarial dynamic is present in the modern day and results in women, in particular, having unique insight into figuring out the motives of partially aligned intelligences due to practice on men.
It’s okay to describe features of a group of people. Which features you’re describing, how you present your claims, and whether you’re in fact right all matter. In this case, you are, implicitly, making the claim that the difference between men and women is large enough that it makes sense to try to draw an analogy to the difference between humans and AIs, even though you explicitly stated that of course the difference is not as large.
To put it another way, I don’t actually see what using women and men here adds to the analogy beyond “sometimes, humans have to suss out the true intentions of other humans who partially share goals with them when those other humans have motive to deceive them”. To the extent that you are claiming there is a meaningful difference, I think that is [not entirely sure I am phrasing the following correctly] privileging gender as a special axis of human difference in a way that I think is meaningfully wrong and also find unpleasant.
(Somewhat more incidentally, I and many other women I know dislike the use of “females”, “mate”, etc in this context, though that is somewhat trivial and not actually a big deal so much as often correlated with things that do actually bother me.)
In addition to what gears said, I think the sexist othering etc is not actually critical to the analogy, which is kind of the problem. “Figuring out the motives of people who kind of share goals with you but also have reasons to lie” is a pretty universal human experience. Adding some gender evopsych on top is just annoying (and prevents thinking about many of the more interesting ways in which this dynamic can play out).
