Dual-mating refers to a hypothesis that women have an innate mating strategy that involves two mates: A primary partner as [[long-term relationship|long-term]] support (a beta [[cuckold]]), and secondary sex partner of higher mate quality in order to get "good genes" for the offspring (an [[Chad|alpha male]]).<ref>http://pillse.bol.ucla.edu/Publications/Pillsworth&Haselton_ARSR.pdf</ref> | Dual-mating refers to a hypothesis that women have an innate mating strategy that involves two mates: A primary partner as [[long-term relationship|long-term]] support (a beta [[cuckold]]), and secondary sex partner of higher mate quality in order to get "good genes" for the offspring (an [[Chad|alpha male]]).<ref>http://pillse.bol.ucla.edu/Publications/Pillsworth&Haselton_ARSR.pdf</ref> | ||
In recent time, this hypothesis was used to explain seemingly higher rates of [[cuck|cuckoldry]] and seemingly increasing rates of beta men providing for single mothers in their 30s or 40s [[pumped and dumped|after]] they had obtained a child from a more desirable male, which is dubbed [[alpha fucks, beta bucks]] (AF/BB). | In recent time, this hypothesis was used to explain seemingly higher rates of [[cuck|cuckoldry]] and seemingly increasing rates of beta men providing for single mothers in their 30s or 40s [[pumped and dumped|after]] they had obtained a child from a more desirable male, which is dubbed [[alpha fucks, beta bucks]] (AF/BB). | ||
More recently, however, the dual-mating strategy fell in disfavor in the scientific community for a number of reasons.
