* While men contribute far less parental care than women do across societies (Hewlett, [https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=etwzDwAAQBAJ&oi=fnd&pg=PT184&dq=Husband-wife+reciprocity+and+the+father-infantrelationship+among+Aka+pygmies&ots=ncTySadApw#v=onepage&q=Husband-wife%20reciprocity%20and%20the%20father-infantrelationship%20among%20Aka%20pygmies&f=false 1992]), men protect mates and offspring from predators and other men, and can provide high quality food through hunting. Men procure more food (in kcal) than women do in foraging societies, far more than they consume (Kaplan et al., [http://radicalanthropologygroup.org/sites/default/files/pdf/class_text_066.pdf 2000]). In contemporary foragers,men use meat to obtain mating opportunities (Hawkes, [http://content.csbs.utah.edu/~hawkes/Hawkes91showingOff.pdf 1991]) and to invest in current mates and offspring (Kaplan et al., [http://radicalanthropologygroup.org/sites/default/files/pdf/class_text_066.pdf 2000]; Marlowe, [https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/A-critical-period-for-provisioning-by-Hadza-men-Marlowe/f2fffab062fe260902e6ac7cc42984f4c8e815c1 2003]), and meat probably served this dual function over human evolution. The proportion of a man’s resources channeled toward parenting likely depended on his paternity confidence (Anderson, Kaplan, Lam, & Lancaster, [https://www.unm.edu/~jlancas/AndersonKaplanLamLancaster_1999_Fathers+StepfathersXhosa.pdf 1999]; Anderson, Kaplan, & Lancaster, [http://www.unm.edu/~hkaplan/AndersonKaplanLancaster_1999_Fathers%2BStepfathersAlbuquerque.pdf 1999], [http://www.academia.edu/download/46603791/Confidence_of_paternity_divorce_and_inve20160618-6894-16z6c20.pdf 2007]).
