** In one column he claims that bonobos, not chimps, are humans' closest relatives with the greatest genetic match percentage (99%), in reality both chimps ''and'' bonobos share the same amount of DNA with humans; in fact there's DNA humans share with chimps but not bonobos and vice versa.
** In one video he makes the argument against the existence of an "ideal male body type" which basically says "If there's a body type that is considered the most attractive, then, why there are so many different body types out there?". In reality, evolution ''values'' diversity in characteristics in a population, so that natural selection can select the better adapted characteristics for the next generation, also there are many factors intervening in the process of natural selection, and what could be considered "attractive" could very well be disadvantageous if the natural conditions change which could very well favor the success of other "less attractive" characteristics.
