Scientific consensus rejects any hard-line nature vs. nuture stance, including social deconstructionism and [[biological essentialism]] respectively.  However, science leans towards most human behaviour being influenced by biological impulses rather than just socialization. Humans are both malleable and have natural impulses/behaviours. Many emotions, tendencies and traits are universal and fixed, while others are not universal across cultures.

Humans all have basically the same facial movement in response to emotional stimuli, across all cultures.  This falls in line with [[biological essentialism]].  Cultures vary wildly in violent behavior among people with similar Y-DNA, as well as globally, which falls in line with social construction theory.  However, there are more countries with people of E3* Y-DNA haplogroup in countries with the top 50% of violent behaviour, which falls in line with biological essentialism.
