Baumeister et al. (2001) conducted a comprehensive survey study of sex difference in sex drive and found not a single study that significantly showed women have a higher sex drive. Baumeister's and related results results are also summarized in the '''[[libido | Baumeister et al.

A higher male sex drive implies that women are the bottleneck in reproduction and that multiple males end up competing for any given male. This is aggravated by the fact that women have a shorter reproductive window, so there is a larger group of men competing for the few fertile women. As a consequence, men's love style is active and women's love style is passive and choosy. Since men have fewer mating options, they more likely make compromises and date down, explaining, in part, why hypergamy exists. | A higher male sex drive implies that women are the bottleneck in reproduction and that multiple males end up competing for any given male.
