'''Female choosiness''' | |||
Men | |||
By virtue of a having a womb, women have more [[Bateman's principle|parental investment]], so they evolved to be more choosy maters. | |||
A result of this is that men's demand for sex is insatiable and men are [[sex drive|doomed to be horny]]. | |||
Even in stable relationships men masturbate four times as often as women.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Libido#Masturbation</ref> | |||
Men much more readily agree to unsolicited invitations to sex,<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Men_like_61.9.25_of_female_profiles.2C_women_like_only_4.5.25_of_male_profiles</ref> | |||

As a result of being choosy, women are [[hypergamy | Having greater parental investment, women also evolved to be heavily dependent on men's resources.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Women_were_historically_predominantly_involved_in_cooking_and_they_never_dominated_men</ref> | ||
This makes women extra choosy as the man not only needs to be attractive, but also a good provider. | |||
'''Principle of least interest''' | |||
As a result of being more choosy, women having much more options to choose from as there are overall more men desiring women than vice-versa.<ref>Baumeister, R.F. and Tice, D.M., 2001. The social dimension of sex. Allyn & Bacon.</ref> | |||
Men and women aim up to the same extent and few aim unrealistically high,<ref>https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/advances/4/8/eaap9815.full.pdf</ref> | |||
but since men have fewer alternative mating options available to them, they more readily make compromises and eventually date down,<ref>https://assets.csom.umn.edu/assets/71503.pdf</ref> | |||
particularly if they experience frequent rejection.<ref>https://econtent.hogrefe.com/doi/abs/10.1027/1864-9335/a000392</ref> | |||
In economics, this is called the ''principle of least interest'' as the party that has the least interest (women in this case) get to decide on the conditions of the contract as the other party more readily compromises having fewer alternative options of as high value to them. | |||
Making compromises means dating down, so women get to ''date up'' ([[hypergamy]]).<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016748701630277X</ref><ref>https://d-nb.info/997448148/34</ref> | |||
'''Bodyguard principle''' | |||
Being physically weaker, women are believed to choose the most dominant male available to be protected from contenders (bodyguard hypothesis<ref>https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-1-4615-5985-6_21</ref>) and to get access to high quality foods.<ref>http://web.simmons.edu/%7Eturnerg/MCC/Matechoice2PDF.pdf</ref> Especially when many women accumulate at the most dominant males (polygyny), it implies women tend to date up overall and there is a surplus of men at the bottom of the socioeconomic hierarchy without any sex. | |||
In fact, female hypergamy agrees with evidence that humans are a moderately polygamous species. In the Ethnographic Atlas, of 1,231 societies noted, 588 had frequent polygyny, 453 had occasional polygyny, and only 186 were fully monogamous.<ref>http://eclectic.ss.uci.edu/~drwhite/worldcul/atlas.htm</ref> | |||
Women may have reproduced twice as often as men throughout history as a result.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Before_.27enforced_monogamy.27.2C_women.27s_effective_population_size_was_up_to_17x_larger_than_men.27s</ref> | |||
Women prefer partnered men over single men which may be related to women's preference for high status, but may also be an adaption of women living in [[polygyny|harems]].<ref>http://digital.library.okstate.edu/etd/umi-okstate-2649.pdf</ref><ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022103109001048</ref><ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1660608/</ref> Men do not show such preferences. | |||
Women's preference for high status men ties into the [[Human dominance hierarchies|hierarchical organization in humans]]. | |||
Cross-culturally, men do not care about women's socioeconomic status and achievements, but women care a lot about men's.<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/29871054_International_Preferences_in_Selecting_Mates_A_Study_of_37_Cultures</ref><ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Men_like_61.9.25_of_female_profiles.2C_women_like_only_4.5.25_of_male_profiles</ref><ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Women_.28and_men.29_pay_more_attention_to_high_status_men.2C_not_high_status_women</ref> | |||

They also suggest, welfare and affirmative action for women, as well as decreasing economic growth and increasing economic inequality, tend to reduce the [[sexual market value]] of lots of men because provision of resources are men's main goods. | |||
Women's sexual market value is, on the other hand, rather determined by their looks and their reputation of faithfulness (things that men desire).<ref>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jesp.2018.03.011</ref> | |||
