==Women are attracted to antisociability==
==Women are particularly attracted to antisociability==


A study conducted in the United Kingdom on behalf of the Society for Research in Child Development by Sara R. Jaffee ''et al.'' (2003) using 'data from an epidemiological sample of 1,116 5-year-old twin pairs and their parents', remarked the following: "Second, despite the fact that fathers who engage in high levels of antisocial behavior make up a small proportion of fathers overall, they are responsible for a disproportionate number of births. For example, Moffitt and colleagues (2002) found that '''although men who engaged in high levels of antisocial behavior constituted only 10% of a birth cohort, they accounted for 27% of the babies fathered by the time the men were age 26'''".<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12625439</ref><ref>https://www.nber.org/papers/w12019</ref>

==Women are attracted to gang members==
==Women are particularly attracted to gang members==
Another study by Palmer and Tilley (1995) for The Journal of Sex Research examining the possible evolutionary psychological motives prompting young men to join street gangs revealed that "shows that the gang members in the study reported a significantly greater average number of sex partners during the last 30 days than the non-gang members reported for the same period (M, of 1.67 to 1.22, respectively)" and that "the two greatest total numbers of partners reported in our study were by two gang leaders, who reported 11 and 10 partners, respectively." The studies authors concluded that compared to prior study conducted by Laumann et al.'s examing men in the United States sexual habits;  '''"many gang members in our study had as many, or more, sex partners in one month than the average male in Laumann et al.'s study had in one year.'''"<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/233368360_Sexual_access_to_females_as_a_motivation_for_joining_gangs_An_evolutionary_approach

* ''We also predict that leaders of gangs, like leaders in many human societies, not only have sexual access to greater numbers of females, but also more exclusive sexual access to these females.''

==Women are attracted to the Dark Triad==
==Women are particularly attracted to the Dark Triad==
The [[dark triad]] is defined as: '''Narcissism''', '''Manipulativeness''', & '''Psychopathy'''. The "Dirty Dozen" is a scoring tool for quickly quantifying the Dark Triad:

Several mainstream academic, peer-reviewed studies have confirmed that women are sexually attracted to men who exhibit [[dark triad]] traits, likely because of women's [[hypergamy|hypergamous]] nature.
