Well, "instinct" is highly overused. There's maybe
atwo dozen for humans? And most are gone before age 1.Predispositions? Now THOSE are common, but not nearly as strong.
Add to that: human learning is not that well understood. So cultural and parental influence can be so strong it may look like an "instinct" due to it being so common in a group, but could also be "deprogrammed" pretty easily too.
Remember Patty Hearst?
But as for "shaming women" that's just jag-off nonsense. It's a survival trait! Cultures that promoted motherhood (AND father hood too!) survived while those that didn't died off.
