I clearly have some issues of my own to work through because I saw the photograph of an old white guy, saw the description "anthropologist" and thought, "Nope, not a single thing you could possibly have to say on this subject will be either accurate or relevant, I'll pass." Evidently that was the right decision.
I actually do think a study of the psychology behind it would be interesting to read about, and I think an anthropologist would be a good one to do it, but this guy...well, he's trying, and I don't really think he's being intentionally derogatory in any way, but unfortunately he's missed the point of it. "By and for heterosexual women"--wrong. Maybe 40 years ago, but not today. He also says that gay male sex isn't monogamous, which unfortunately smacks of ignorance seeing as how there are couples of all pairings who are faithful to one partner, just as there are people of all sexes and orientations who sleep with multiple partners. And then there was the bit about anal sex being a substitute for vaginal intercourse.
Yeah, I sigh inside every time I see that because I thought I was finished with "You, a lesbian, write m/m slash?! No WAY! Please JUSTIFY how you could possibly want to do that!" stuff, you know, ten years ago? It's a bit tedious.

On extremely cursory glance, the comments on the youtube itself seemed to be pretty much taking him down for the right reasons...
