Well, there's certainly a lot of variability in the ways that cultures can develop and unfold and so forth, but there do seem, and human nature is quite malleable, but there do seem to be some constraints and some kind of deep principles that seem to push human cultures in one way or the other. So it's this, I see it as a bit of a tension between a high amount of variability and then
