Questioning the so-called human nature is interesting but tricky. Personally, I view it as probability distribution rather than universality. Without the study in question, tho we know how such studies can be, we will probably not get further than semantics and opinions.

I still do not think it is normal, in any sense of the word, to be hostile towards those who anger us to such extent that we would want to kill them. If it was, we would be killing ourselves on daily bases. Unless for predators we do not see much of such behavior elsewhere in nature, among other animals, and we are not all that different. This is a different topic however.

Being sexually attracted to what is perceived as an individual fit .. for reproduction is probably in human nature, on a curve of a kind.
