Why/how were Early Neolithic Farmers cucked by WHG?

WHG admix isn't unique to Europeans either since Steppe_MLBA got a lot of EEF ancestry from Erteboelle (40% WHG) and GAC and spread it to entire West Eurasia, but it is only really important for Eastern Europeans. Contrary to what people think, ANF actually peaks in Western Europe. Near Easterners have Natufian, a more Basal-rich version of ANF.

Which paper?

Today? I don't believe that any of those ancient components make all that much difference as you've seen relatively intelligent and innovative societies in all parts of Europe since then. i.e. the innate differences are small enough that circumstance and eugenic/dysgenic factors can have more of a noticeable effect in any given time.

I think the perennial differences in behaviour and temperament are more interesting and perhaps more illustrative of the different ancient groups.

Do you believe an increase in Neolithic ancestry results in an increase in MENA like behaviour and temperament?

Also , is MENA vs non-MENA temperament the result of different hormonal levels?which themselves are the result of natural selection?
is the inherent evolutionary goal of some races to become hermaphrodites?

nvm

Somewhat yes, compared to more native European components anyway. But the people with the highest ENF (or whatever you want to call it) in Europe are not the most MENA like, that's the people with the most direct MENA ancestry (East Meds) obviously.

Would you say that populations with WHG/EHG are more temperamental and more introvert?

Less temperamental, more introvert. You don't notice these patterns?
