While human females appear to exhibit more choice copying all around (Stree 2018), mate choice copying may be an expression of women's disinterest in low status males and interest in high status males which is [[#Males_gained_peer_status_through_having_had_sex_and_females_lost_peer_status|correlated with men's peer status]], i.e. women may dislike singles because they are more often low status. Since other women choose based on status, the relationship status of a man is a costly and hence accurate indicator of having already won prior contest competitions. | While human females appear to exhibit more choice copying all around (Stree 2018), mate choice copying may be an expression of women's disinterest in low status males and interest in high status males which is [[#Males_gained_peer_status_through_having_had_sex_and_females_lost_peer_status|correlated with men's peer status]], i.e. women may dislike singles because they are more often low status.

All of this (including the preference for high status men) may also simply be an expression of women's more agreeable, subordinating behavior which presumably evolved being physically weaker and more childlike ([[bodyguard hypothesis]]). | All of this (including the preference for high status men) may also simply be an expression of women's more agreeable, subordinating behavior which presumably evolved being physically weaker and more childlike ([[bodyguard hypothesis]]). | ||
Anthropologist Eibl-Eibesfeldt (1989) suggested the tendency for women to submit to dominant men may a remnant of ancient adaptations in which pair formation only succeeds when the male is able to dominate his partner which can be observed in many reptiles, birds, and mammals. | |||
In many species, including humans, the greater [[Bateman's principle|parental investment]] on part of females causes males to engage in [[#Men.27s_social_status_accounts_for_62.25_of_the_variance_of_copulation_opportunities|contest competitions]] over reproductive opportunities. | |||
A result is that the act of penetration itself acts as dominance signal as it is the consequence of winning prior contests, hence it becomes a desirable trait in males that females "surrender" to, and ending up copying the mate choice of other women. | |||
[[Feminism|Feminists]] have interpreted female mate-choice copying to be a pre-test to make sure the male is not dangerous which is a ludicrous and false assertion as women love dangerous men. | |||
